After coming out on top in their respective midweek European games, West Ham and Newcastle United turn their focus back to the Premier League on Sunday, with a cracker of a game in store at the London Stadium.
David Moyes' troops, for one, made it two wins from two in the Europa League with a 2-1 success over Freiburg, and have now won four of their last five matches in all competitions, with the 3-1 defeat to Liverpool at Anfield the exception. The Hammers were comfortable victors against Sheffield United last time out in the Premier League, but face a much tougher test here.
Newcastle United, meanwhile, tore reigning French champions Paris Saint-Germain to shreds in a 4-1 Champions League demolition job at St. James Park in what will go down as a historic Champions League night on Tyneside.
After a shaky start to the season, confidence is once again high in the Magpies' campaign, having won four in a row, including 1-0 victory over Manchester City in the EFL Cup third round and an 8-0 thumping of Sheffield United. They now face a key litmus test of their ability to balance domestic and continental ambitions ahead of the international break.

Team news & squads
West Ham team news
West Ham boss David Moyes could have to make do without the services of star striker Michail Antonio, who missed the midweek trip to Freiburg in the Europa League due to a tight groin. Ben Johnson (adductor) and Aaron Cresswell (thigh) remain sidelined until after the international break.
Star man Jarrod Bowen deputised in the number nine position in midweek, and could do so again here. Moyes could stick with the impressive Mohammed Kudus on the right-wing, while he could bring back Said Benrahma on the opposite flank instead of Pablo Fornals.
