West Ham predicted XI: Newcastle (Asia Trophy)

West Ham face Newcastle United in the third-place play-off of the Asia Trophy on Saturday.

The Hammers are set to battle it out for third place after they were beaten 4-1 by Premier League champions Manchester City in the semi-final.

Despite taking the lead through a penalty from Mark Noble, goals from David Silva, Lucas Nmecha and Raheem Sterling (2) meant that West Ham failed to reach the final.

Newcastle, meanwhile, are set to be managed by Steve Bruce for the first time since his arrival at the club from Sheffield Wednesday.

The Toon Army lost 4-0 to Wolves in the other semi-final, with the caretaker staff in charge of the club for the game. 

Manuel Pellegrini will see this as a good chance to further test his squad, against Premier League opposition, as well as a fitness exercise. 

Here is how we predict that West Ham will line up against Bruce’s side…
