Newcastle United's Callum Wilson and Allan Saint-Maximin are both available for the visit of West Ham United.

Ryan Fraser (groin) and Jamaal Lascelles (foot) remain out while Fabian Schar (knee) continues to be monitored.

Declan Rice (knee) and Michail Antonio (hamstring) remain sidelined for West Ham, but Aaron Cresswell could return after sustaining a knock that forced him off in the second half at Leicester City last weekend.

Did you know?

Callum Wilson has scored more Premier League goals against West Ham United than versus any other side, netting eight times in nine appearances. His first Newcastle United goal came against the Hammers in this season's reverse fixture.

Newcastle have lost just two of their last 16 PL home matches against West Ham (W8 D6).

West Ham are unbeaten in all 22 of their matches against bottom-half sides since David Moyes returned (W14 D8).

West Ham can become only the second club to go 3-0 up in four consecutive PL matches, after Manchester United, who did so in February 2010 and September 2011.
