The 2021/2022 season has kicked off in the premier league with the first matches going down this weekend and Newcastle is set to meet West ham on their first league match at the St James Park stadium.
West Ham united have been in good performance over the last two seasons finishing sixth last season which saw them qualify for European football. West Ham will have a tough way this term having the Europa league commitments adding congestion to the fixture list.
Newcastle on the other hand, have had relegation scraps last season languishing in the 17th place with only 9 games to go but the three victories in the final four games saw them propel to the 12th position.
Newcastle have been active in the pre-season preparations having won three times and lost only to York City in the friendly kick offs. Newcastle have also three in-comings from the academy.
West Ham will have another form of play without Jesse Lingard who is back to the Old Trafford after the being on loan in Moyes squad. He had a very remarkable play last season and he will be expected to feature in most of Manchester United games.
These both teams have impressive players in their ranks and will be looking for a clear win.
