Three Fulham vs Newcastle Predictions
Newcastle to Win (29/20 with Betano)
Newcastle have dominated Fulham over the last few years and have come out on top in all six most recent meetings across all competitions. Eddie Howe’s side struggled on the road last term, ranking 11th in the league, and we think that should improve this season without Champions League football.
Joelinton 1+ Fouls (1/12 with Betano)
The Brazilian has been booked in 19 of his last 53 top-flight appearances, including three times in four matches this season. Only Lewis Cook (13) has given away more fouls in the league in 2024/25, and another card could be on the menu against Fulham.
Under 2.5 goals (6/5 with Betano)
There have been fewer than three goals scored in total in each of Fulham’s last four games.
How both teams go into Fulham vs Newcastle
Fulham have made a positive start to the 2024 campaign, with five points secured. Marco Silva’s men managed a narrow defeat to Manchester United on the opening weekend. They then managed a 2-1 win over Leicester City, where big-money summer signing Emile Smith Rowe grabbed his first goal for the club, before a point on the road at Ipswich and then against West Ham at home.
29 of Fulham’s 47 points last season came in home matches. However, they will be well aware that their recent record against Newcastle makes for grim reading, with six defeats in their last six.
Newcastle struggled to juggle both the Champions League and Premier League in the first half of last season and may well benefit domestically from not featuring in Europe’s most prestigious club competition this around.
Eddie Howe’s were reduced to ten men less than half an hour into the new season after Fabian Schar was dismissed against Southampton in the 1-0 victory at St James’ Park. They then made the long journey to take on Bournemouth, where they were held to a 1-1 draw on the south coast, while before the international break, they put in their best showing so far with a 2-1 win over Spurs in the Toon, and followed that up with a 2-1 road win over Wolves.
Fulham Team News
Marco Silva only misses Carlos Vinicius (calf) from his squad and would have been pleased to see new signing Reiss Nelson score in midweek.
Newcastle Team News
Sven Botman (knee), Jamaal Lascelles (knee), Lewis Miley (ankle), and Callum Wilson (back) are ruled out, while Alexander Isak (eye) is questionable.
Fulham vs Newcastle head-to-head
Newcastle have won all of the last six meetings, including twice last season in the FA Cup and Premier League at Craven Cottage. Fulham last came out on top in 2017 when the pair were playing in the Championship.
