Fulham vs Newcastle United: Premier League Prediction Match Details
Fulham will welcome Newcastle United in one of the exciting fixtures of the matchday five at the Craven Cottage in London on Saturday afternoon. Both teams have been in great form since the start of the new campaign.
Fulham Preview & Form
Fulham, since their narrow 1-0 defeat in the opening round of the Premier League, have been in great unbeaten form in the league. The Cottagers, in their last game, played a 1-1 draw against West Ham United, which extended their unbeaten run to three matches in the Premier League. However, their games during the midweek ended with an early elimination from the League Cup against Preston as the Cottagers were defeated by a remarkable total of 34 spot kicks, with the penalties ending 16-15.
Fulham’s head coach, Marco Silva, will be hoping that his team’s early exit from the EFL League Cup does not affect their performance in the league. However, their previous record against their upcoming opponent has been poor, as they have lost their last six consecutive matches against Newcastle.
Newcastle United Preview & Form
Newcastle United’s form in the new campaign has been excellent, as they have remained unbeaten in all competitions. The Magpies, in their last match at the weekend, made it two consecutive matches as they defeated Wolves 2-1 on the road despite going a goal behind in the first half of the game. Their positive run of form sees them sit third in the league table with 10 points gathered.
Eddie Howe’s side will feel confident in their bid to pursue European competitions next season, but their defense has been poor despite winning their games, as the Magpies have conceded a goal in each of their last four league games. However, their record against Fulham has been excellent, having gone unbeaten in their last nine games while recording six successive victories.

Both teams have been performing well in the new Premier League campaign. The Magpies have a strong record in previous matches against Fulham. Therefore, we predict that Newcastle will win this match.
