Good afternoon and welcome to LIVE coverage of Newcastle against West Ham United from St James' Park. A 3pm kick-off in this one.

Newcastle sub: Riviere on, Mitrovic off.

Mitrovic sends another shot just wide. End-to-end stuff.

SIX added minutes here.

Jelavic hammers a volley at goal on the turn and it flashes just over. So close to a spectacular second goal for Jelavic.

OFF THE LINE! Elliott saves Newcastle with a brilliant save with his legs after Jelavic's cross from the left was headed at goal by Kouyate.

Shelvey goes for goal from 20 yards and, well, the less said about that shot the better.

Janmaat is back on his feet and the game continues.

Treatment needed by Daryl Janmaat at the moment after Nikica Jelavic collides into him while Rob Elliot catches a cross.

Newcastle sub: Gouffran on, Perez off.

Shelvey hits a fizzing shot from distance that Adrian found too hot to handle the first time around, but gathered at the second time of asking.

BIG MISS! Mitrovic goes clean through, turns inside Ogbonna, but his shot is far too close to Adrian, who makes yet another important save.

West Ham sub: Jenkinson on, Tomkins off.

Could be a nervous finish to the game for Newcastle. They've been the better team but haven't found that third goal yet.

West Ham sub: Moses on, Antonio off.

Newcastle want to put this game to bed and are throwing everything at the Hammers, who are hanging in there. Just.

GREAT SAVE! Adrian tips the ball over brilliantly from Mitrovic, who thrashed the ball at goal after Wijnaldum poked it into his path.

CHANCE! Slick move by Newcastle as Janmaat races down the right and whips in a superb low cross for Mitrovic, whose deft shot is palmed away by Adrian.
