Our football betting expert Jones Knows is back to provide more Premier League insight ahead of Monday Night Football.
What are West Ham under Julen Lopetegui?
It looks like David Moyes football without the swashbuckling counter-attack style that led the club to some special places under his watch. Lopetegui's appointment is turning into one of the big mistakes of the summer.
On the road in 2024, West Ham's defence have conceded 35 goals in 14 games in the Premier League - that's an average of 2.5 goals per game and is the worst record of any ever-present Premier League team in that time. I'm fully expecting Newcastle to fill their boots here.
And, Joe Willock looks overpriced to get a goal. His goalscoring threat always remains underrated by the markets.
Since coming back into the team three games ago, he's had seven of Newcastle's 34 shots, meaning he's been responsible for 21 per cent of all their shot output. I'm expecting him to be to the fore yet again in a game where Newcastle are going to see lots of territory. The 4/1 on him scoring anytime with Sky Bet is a runner.
