Newcastle vs Fulham – Preview, and Prediction
Newcastle vs Fulham – Newcastle’s demanding schedule will continue on Saturday afternoon at St. James’ Park as they entertain a fiery Fulham team in Matchday No. 17.
The Magpies’ main players have suffered from weariness as a result of playing in a demanding Saturday–Wednesday schedule for a considerable amount of time.
Kieran Trippier hasn’t looked like himself lately, particularly in a 0-3 loss at Everton, where he made dreadful errors late in the game at Goodison Park that gave the Toffees the lead in goals.
Trippier’s absence will weaken his team’s defense against Fulham at home. Trippier’s fifth booking of the season came in a 1-4 loss at Tottenham last Saturday.
Despite this, Newcastle continues to appear like a different team at St. James’ Park, where they have won seven of their eight league games this year.
They are the favorites to win this match against Fulham, but given that the Cottagers have scored three goals or more in each of the last four league games, it will be easier said than done.
Fulham is currently on a high. They leave for the north of the nation having defeated Nottingham Forest and West Ham 5-0 in the previous two games.
Can they capitalize on Newcastle’s demanding schedule, particularly after the Magpies’ grueling match against AC Milan in the pivotal UEFA Champions League match on Wednesday night?
Newcastle vs Fulham – Betting Analysis
Over the past five years, Newcastle has won four and drawn one against the Cottagers, dominating this encounter. Newcastle has won 11 of 24 home matches against Fulham, drawn seven, and lost six.
Eight of the previous eleven head-to-head matches between the teams had fewer than three goals. There are many reasons to expect goals at St. James’ Park on Saturday, given Fulham’s recent offensive success.
