West Ham's Worst Premier League Start in 19 Years Continues
2 Nov
Summary
- West Ham's poor start to the season, with just 4 points from 9 games
- Newcastle's strong away record at the London Stadium, with 5 wins and 2 draws
- Bruno Guimarães' impressive goalscoring form for Newcastle
As of November 2nd, 2025, West Ham United are facing a dismal start to their Premier League campaign, having collected just 4 points from their first 9 matches. This is the Hammers' worst start to a league season since the 2006-07 campaign, when they had 5 points at this stage.
In contrast, Newcastle United have enjoyed a strong record at the London Stadium, West Ham's home ground. The Magpies have lost just one of their 8 Premier League away games against the Hammers, winning 5 and drawing 2. Their latest visit to the capital is set to be a crucial test, as Newcastle look to end their 7-game winless run on the road.
One bright spot for the visitors has been the form of midfielder Bruno Guimarães. The Brazilian has already scored 3 goals in 8 league appearances this season, just 2 fewer than his total from the entire 2024-25 campaign. Guimarães' late winner against Fulham last month was Newcastle's latest decisive goal since March 2024.
With West Ham struggling to find their form and Newcastle seeking to end their away day woes, this clash promises to be an intriguing encounter between two sides with contrasting fortunes so far this season.
