Newcastle has had the upper hand in the Premier League clashes, winning three of the past seven encounters, while West Ham has only managed one victory in that period. Despite Newcastle’s advantage, West Ham’s defense has shown resilience, conceding no more than two goals in each of their last six matches across all competitions.
