Newcastle United and West Ham Team News

As emerged from the week, The Magpies have bowed out of the EFL Cup second round following Wednesday's 2-3 extra time defeat to Nottingham Forrest at St James' Park, with the Hammers, meanwhile, making their way to the round three draw after a 2-0 victorious trip to Cheltenham.

As for player unlikely to make the squads for both teams, there go a United trio of defenders Paul Dummett and Florian Lejeune and holding midfielder Jonjo Shelvey, both the former still recovering from injuries they sustained in the opener to Spurs and the letter sitting out two more games for his rough knock on Dele Alli on the same evening.

With the Magpies' Andy Carroll, Manuel Lanzini and Winston Reid all long-term absentees, either side of Marko Arnautovic, who is suspended for the red booking against the Saints last weekend.

As a matter of fact, Hammers could have got out with a point last time out when they came from behind to turn it back 2-2 from 2-0 down at St Mary's, but it was Saints striker Chrlie Austin being the last to kick the ball as he converted a 93rd-minute spot kick to hand manager Mauricio Pellegrino his debut competitive win as Saints' boss.

Two sides who cannot find their way to play at the back - 7 goals leaked by West Ham and only 3 by United - and perhaps who lack solidity and togetherness as a whole, suggesting based on the sides' latest performances, which hints to be a high scoring game, with Javier Hernandes eager to add to his two at Southampton and Newcastle's new acquisition Joselu, or Aleksandar Mitrovic, coming on at the expense of Dwight Gayle whose work rate hasn't been that impressive so far.
