That's all from the London Stadium! Thank you for following. Until next time!
West Ham United vs Newcastle United
An important and deserved three points for Eddie Howe’s men in the hunt for Champions League football as they wrestle back some momentum going into Sunday’s Carabao Cup final against Liverpool. After a poor first 20 minutes, the visitors controlled the majority of the remaining hour, taking the lead through captain Guimaraes in the 63rd minute as the Brazilian latched onto a Barnes cross to poke home. It’s a goal that takes Newcastle level on points with Manchester City in fifth place. But their attention will be only on silverware for now. For Potter and West Ham, who managed just 0.45 compared to Newcastle’s 1.38 xG, they will need to find some sort of motivation in the remaining 10 games of the Premier League season. They sit 16 points clear of safety in 16th but could easily finish ahead of Tottenham and Manchester United if they find form. They travel to 15th placed Everton on Saturday as they face former manager David Moyes back at Goodison Park.

West Ham have barely laid a glove on Newcastle since the goal. Potter will be disappointed with his side's response to going behind despite the attacking intent of his substitutions.
