Nolan has scored 5 times against Sunderland including a debut goal for Newcastle and a hat-trick in another game.
Speaking in his blog on the official site, the Hammers captain said, “As a Newcastle player, I scored against them on my debut, it was a 1-1 draw that day and then the next time I faced them with the Magpies, I scored a hat-trick in a 5-1 win. My other goal against them came in another 1-1 draw after that.
So I would love to have more of the same now I am a Hammer! As I said, it will be a tough game, we know that. But if we can keep getting in the right positions to create chances, we know we can score and we just have to keep our strong play at the back and then hopefully we can get something and do the business.
