Newcastle predicted lineup vs West Ham: One change from PSG win
By Kian Long
Newcastle United have another tough fixture as they travel to London. With that said, here’s the Newcastle predicted lineup vs West Ham.
Newcastle predicted lineup vs West Ham?
GK: Nick Pope. The England international wasn’t called up to international duty, but he will start in this match. As a goalkeeper who is bang in form and hardly conceding goals, he’ll give the West Ham attackers a difficult time.
RB: Kieran Trippier. Played exceptionally against PSG at the weekend and nullified Kylian Mbappe. Admittedly, the opposition isn’t quite as good as Mbappe this time round but Trippier won’t underestimate West Ham.
CB: Jamaal Lascelles. Sven Botman could return from injury in time, but if he does, it would be harsh to bench the captain Jamaal Lascelles. Certainly, he put in a massive shift in mid week.
CB: Fabian Schar. One of the most underappreciated players in the Premier League is our Schar. He demonstrated everything he was about in midweek with an exceptional defensive display and of course, that last minute wonder goal.
LB: Dan Burn. Another bullet header pending? Maybe not, but still Dan Burn will play in this match. He’s been in great form lately, and will be valuable to matching the physicality of the Hammers.
