  • West Ham play Newcastle United at 5:30PM BST in the Premier League
  • A win is the only way to guarantee the Hammers will not get relegated on Tuesday
  • The game is available to watch on Sky Sports

West Ham United head to Newcastle United knowing they must win today to guarantee the Premier League survival fight goes down to the final day. The Hammers sit two points behind Tottenham Hotspur and a loss would mean they could be relegated when Spurs play Chelsea on Tuesday night.

Nuno Espirito Santo has had the task of picking his West Ham team up from a difficult lost to Arsenal last week. Now, the Irons have to go again as they know three points could give them a chance to control their own destiny on the final day.

Newcastle United have failed to reach their goals this season, and have nothing to play for in this evening’s game. That being said, the Magpies still offer real threat, and will no doubt push the Hammers far in their final home game of the season.

Confirmed line-ups

Nuno sticks with a back five for West Ham as Callum Wilson comes in for Valentin Castellanos after his disallowed goal last week.

Newcastle United make several changes with Kieran Tripper one of the names to come in. Joelinton misses out with injury.

Kick-off time and where to watch

West Ham’s game with Newcastle United at St James Park kicks-off at 5:30PM BST.

The game is available to watch on Sky Sports and NOW TV.

The channel it will be on is Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Premier League.
