West Ham United will return to Premier League action on Monday as they go head-to-head with Newcastle United in an away game. The Hammers are low on confidence after a dreadful start to the season under manager Julen Lopetegui.

West Ham boss Julen Lopetegui has shrugged off talk he has only two games to save his job. The Hammers, slumped in 14th place coming into the weekend, face a tricky trip to resurgent Newcastle on Monday before entertaining title-hopefuls Arsenal the following Saturday.

West Ham boss Julen Lopetegui says he is not engaging with external noise but instead is completely focused on getting the squad to improve. The Hammers are 14th in the Premier League, with 12 points from the Spaniard's first 11 games.

Julen Lopetegui rejects talk of pressure after dismal start at West Ham - The Spanish boss has won just four of 13 games in all competitions this season
