Chelsea make the first change of the game. Noni Madueke is replaced by Mykhailo Mudryk.

Then Newcastle make three. Harvey Barnes, Miguel Almiron and Sandro Tonali go off.

Sean Longstaff, Jacob Murphy and Joe Willock come on. A statement from Eddie Howe.

Danny Ings is coming on for Michail Antonio.

Manchester United have managed to ride the wave of West Ham attacks so far but fresh legs may cause them problems again.

No issues for Robert Sanchez from the free kick. Fabian Schar fires over.

Noni Madueke is booked for bringing down Lewis Hall as Newcastle try to counter.

The visitors have a free kick in a dangerous area. Will they do anything with it?

Eddie Nketiah is coming on for Ismaila Sarr.

The former Arsenal forward is currently on a run of 30 shots without scoring in the Premier League. Time to end that streak?

Adam Kitchener: No power or energy in midfield. What is Ange waiting for?

Ooooh. Micky van de Ven may be lucky to have only received a yellow card there.

He makes the challenge on Ismaila Sarr but he was the last man and Sarr could've had a clear sight of goal.

It's so comfortable, so easy for Chelsea at the moment. Almost too easy for them.

Newcastle just can't build up any sustained periods of possession.

They look like mounting a good move into the Chelsea area, but Romeo Lavia and Moises Caicedo are all over them in the middle before they lose the ball and Cole Palmer mounts yet another counter-attack.

Erik ten Hag is pointing to his head as if to tell his United players, "think about it!" West Ham have had such a turnaround in this game.

Ange Postecoglou has seen enough and is going to make some changes.

James Maddison, Mikey Moore and Yves Bissouma make way for Richarlison, Timo Werner and Pape Sarr.

Another nice bit of play from Chelsea. Pedro Neto swings the ball in from the left-hand side and it's met by Malo Gusto in the middle, but he doesn't manage to hit the target with his header.

There you go, the West Ham fans are liking what they are seeing. Julen Lopetegui is in his technical area encouraging his side and they are responding. The noise is getting louder.

West Ham have been much better in this half. Michail Antonio whips in a low cross for Emerson six-yards out from goal but he scuffs his effort.

Big opportunity.

Well, there's the first Newcastle attempt of the first half.

Alexander Isak plays a cross towards the far post which ends up being dangerous and Wesley Fofana has to react quickly to head it off the line.

Eberchi Eze's scuffed cross somehow finds Ismaila Sarr but his effort is parried away by Guglielmo Vicario. It drops to Daniel Munoz but he can't get his effort on target.

Palace have had so many chances here and Eze himself skews an effort wide.

Newcastle are nowhere to be seen in the second half. It's all Chelsea, they're playing some tidy football and attacking with real aggression.

How long will the hosts sustain their momentum for?

This is much better from West Ham so far, they look more comfortable on the ball.
