Bruno Guimaraes' second half strike was enough as the Magpies defeated West Ham at the London Olympic Syadium.
Manager Eddie Howe described the victory as an important one for the club.
He told the BBC:
"One of our best wins of the season, not in terms of performance but desire and heart. All the big ingredients you need to be a successful team - a need to win when the game is tight and find a way to get over the line. We defended really well after the first three minutes which were a bit scary. Deserved win.
"We'll focus fully on Liverpool now. We'll take everything into consideration.
"I felt we were in need of a win to go into the final with a real boost and lift. It will do us the world of good. Also for our league table position today was vital."
