West Ham vs. Newcastle: Head-to-head record and past meetings before Premier League clash

Head-to-head record

Previous meetings: 146

Draws: 41

West Ham United and Newcastle United did battle for the 146th time in November 2025, with the former emerging as victors at the London Stadium, winning 3-1 despite trailing after just four minutes.

Jacob Murphy's opener was cancelled out by Lucas Paqueta's long-range strike in the first half, before a Sven Botman own goal and Tomas Soucek finish secured all three points for the Hammers.

While the Magpies do hold the overall head-to-head bragging rights, their lead in the victories column is not exactly huge.

Indeed, Newcastle have won 60 of their 146 previous matches against West Ham - most recently a 1-0 success at the London Stadium in March 2025 - while the Irons have come up trumps on 45 occasions, and the two sides have played out a stalemate 41 times down the years.

The 2022-23 Conference League winners were on a five-match winless run against Newcastle prior to the 2024-25 season, but they snapped that sequence in eye-catching fashion with a 2-0 victory at St James' Park.

Goals from Tomas Soucek and Aaron Wan-Bissaka took down the Magpies that day, as West Ham avenged their enthralling loss to Eddie Howe's side at the same stadium several months beforehand, a 4-3 thriller in March 2024.

On that day, the Irons found themselves 3-1 to the good before falling victim to an astounding Newcastle fightback, as three goals in the final 15 minutes from Alexander Isak and Harvey Barnes (2) saw the Magpies edge that seven-goal spectacular.

Howe's side also won big at the London Stadium in April 2023 as they demolished David Moyes's West Ham 5-1, and after their slender capital win in 2025, they have only been defeated in one of their last seven Premier League away games against the Irons since a 2-0 loss under Rafael Benitez in 2019.

Remarkably, Newcastle and West Ham have not met in a knockout competition since the 1914-15 FA Cup, where the Magpies prevailed 3-2 in a first-round replay, as they have met exclusively in league football for the past 110 years.

However, the record victory in this fixture belongs to the London club, who obliterated Newcastle 8-1 in a First Division match in April 1986, while the Magpies' biggest success was a 5-0 Premier League home win in January 2011.
