Manager Manuel Pellegrini doesn’t have many options to change things around despite West Ham dropping two points against Sheffield United last weekend.

In defence, the Hammers boss could keep Fabian Balbuena in the side but the team have now conceded ten goals in his four starts this season, and Angelo Ogbonna may well be brought back in alongside Issa Diop.

The decision to bench Ryan Fredericks versus the Blades was a mystery and following a poor performance from Pablo Zabaleta, the Englishman will likely be recalled.

After his excellent performance last time out, Robert Snodgrass will almost certainly keep his place in the starting line up, and with Jack Wilshere still out injured, the midfield is likely to stay the same.

Sebastien Haller was very isolated against Sheffield United but with Pellegrini not affording his understudy Albian Ajeti much game time, the Frenchman is set to stay in the team as the lone striker.

West Ham’s Predicted XI To Face Newcastle:

Roberto, Fredericks, Diop, Ogbonna, Cresswell, Yarmolenko, Rice, Noble, Snodgrass, Anderson, Haller
