A West Ham United side seeking a third consecutive win host a Newcastle United side out to avoid a third straight defeat in Monday night's Premier League fixture at the London Stadium.
The Hammers have got the better of Arsenal and Leicester City in their last two top-flight outings, but not since the days of David Moyes in December 2023 have they won three on the spin in the division.
Meanwhile, Eddie Howe's men are mourning their dreams of FA Cup glory after an agonising 2-1 extra-time loss to Brighton & Hove Albion in the fifth round last weekend, and two of their last three games in the Premier League have also ended in defeat.
Here, Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at the head-to-head record and previous meetings between the two sides.

Head-to-head record
Previous meetings: 144
West Ham wins: 44
Draws: 41
Newcastle wins: 59
West Ham United and Newcastle United will be doing battle for the 145th time in March 2025, and while the Magpies do hold the head-to-head bragging rights, their lead in the victories column is not exactly huge.
Indeed, Newcastle have won 59 of their 144 previous matches against West Ham, who in turn have come up trumps on 44 occasions, and the two sides have played out a stalemate 41 times down the years.
The 2022-23 Conference League winners were on a five-match winless run against Newcastle prior to the 2024-25 season, but they snapped that sequence in eye-catching fashion with a 2-0 victory at St James' Park.
Goals from Tomas Soucek and Aaron Wan-Bissaka took down the Magpies that day, as West Ham avenged their enthralling loss to Eddie Howe's side at the same stadium several months beforehand, a 4-3 thriller in March 2024.
On that day, the Irons found themselves 3-1 to the good before falling victim to an astounding Newcastle fightback, as three goals in the final 15 minutes from Alexander Isak and Harvey Barnes (2) saw the Magpies edge that seven-goal spectacular.
Howe's side also won big at the London Stadium in April 2023 as they demolished David Moyes's West Ham 5-1, and they have now managed to avoid defeat in each of their last five Premier League away games against the Irons since a 2-0 loss under Rafael Benitez in 2019.
Remarkably, Newcastle and West Ham have not met in a knockout competition since the 1914-15 FA Cup, where the Magpies prevailed 3-2 in a first-round replay, as they have met exclusively in league football for the past 110 years.
However, the record victory in this fixture belongs to the London club, who obliterated Newcastle 8-1 in a First Division match in April 1986, while the Magpies' biggest success was a 5-0 Premier League home win in January 2011.
