The live stream of Newcastle vs. West Ham is the pivotal first of two games that Julen Lopetegui has allegedly been given to save his job.

The West Ham owner's decision to part ways with David Moyes again is a strange one, with another disastrous result. The Hammers may be in 14th place, but two of their three wins have been unusually lucky, and that is not due to man. Mohamed Kudus, Jarrod Bowen, and Lucas Paqueta are match-winners who could join almost any team, but Lopetegui doesn't seem to know how best to use any of them.

In last season's matchup, Newcastle came back from 3-1 down to win 4-3 on a rocket shot by Harvey Barnes in the closing minutes.

After trying and failing in recent weeks to break away from the gung-ho attacking style that has characterized the season, manager Eddie Howe once again embraced the chaos, with convincing wins over Arsenal and Nottingham Forest, and Alexander Isaacs again on a rampage with four wins in four games.
