Pick your Newcastle United XI to face West Ham with Joe Willock a doubt

Eddie Howe will need to make a late decision on Joe Willock ahead of the trip to West Ham United tomorrow evening after the Newcastle United midfielder picked up a hamstring injury in the win over Manchester United. The midfielder was on target for the Magpies in the win over the Red Devils and also scored on the Toon's last trip to the London Stadium.

Newcastle earned an important point on the road in February last season, a vital step towards survival. However, fast forward to this season and the two clubs have swapped positions with the Hammers fighting for survival.

David Moyes' side are a point above the relegation zone and know a win would be a huge step towards survival. For the Magpies, they can move clear of Tottenham in the race for Champions League football with a win, while fellow top-four rivals Manchester United take on Brentford tomorrow night.
