Reigning champions Newcastle will bid to continue their Carabao Cup defence this week, as Fulham travel to St. James’ Park on Wednesday evening in the 2025/26 Quarter-Final round.
Newcastle vs Fulham betting tips and summary
Newcastle to win – good home record
Both teams to score – good trend in NUFC matches
Bruno Guimaraes to score or assist – scored in last H2H
Manager Eddie Howe’s side will return home following an embarrassing defeat away to fierce rivals Sunderland, in which the Magpies never looked like scoring – apart from in their own net.
Striker Nick Woltemade scored the only goal of the game, but his header came at the wrong end, putting Sunderland 1-0 up.
Before that defeat, they had been unbeaten in four matches across all competitions, and they will now face Fulham at St James Park for the second time this season.
Manager Marco Silva’s side made the long journey to the north east earlier in the campaign, only to lose 2-1 to a late Bruno Guimaraes strike.
The Cottagers defeated Bristol City, Cambridge and Wycombe to reach this stage of the competition, whilst they have taken maximum points from their last two English Premier League away matches.
What are the best bets for Newcastle vs Fulham?
Newcastle to win
Newcastle are a different animal at home, and their record proves that, having not lost at St James’ Park since September.
Both teams to score
Before the Wear-Tyne derby, all of Newcastle’s last seven matches across all competitions had seen this land.
Bruno Guimaraes to score or assist
The Brazilian midfielder came out with some fiery quotes in the aftermath of the derby defeat and is sure to be riled up for this match.
He is Newcastle’s highest scoring midfielder this season, having netted five English Premier League goals – including one against Wednesday’s opponents.
