ℹ️ Team News: Fulham

There aren’t many personnel worries, with just the sole fitness concern for the Fulham boss Marco Silva to be concerned about from a near full-strength set of players. Carlos Vinícius (Calf injury) misses out.

It’s our opinion that The Cottagers look set to go for a 4-3-3 system this time and select Bernd Leno, Kenny Tete, Joachim Andersen, Calvin Bassey, Antonee Robinson, Andreas Pereira, Sasa Lukic, Emile Smith Rowe, Adama Traore, Raul Jimenez and Alex Iwobi.

ℹ️ Team News: Newcastle United

Newcastle United boss Eddie Howe has to choose from a squad that has some fitness concerns. Callum Wilson (Back injury), Lewis Miley (Metatarsal fracture), Jamaal Lascelles (Cruciate ligament injury), Garang Kuol (Muscle tear) and Sven Botman (Cruciate ligament surgery) are those who can’t be considered.

We’re of the thinking that The Magpies appear most likely to play in a 4-3-3 system by sending out Nick Pope, Valentino Livramento, Fabian Schaer, Daniel Burn, Lloyd Kelly, Sandro Tonali, Bruno Guimaraes, Joelinton, Anthony Gordon, Alexander Isak and Harvey Barnes.

⚡ Prediction

We feel that in this game, Fulham will likely create enough chances to get a goal against this Newcastle United side, although just one goal possibly won’t be as many as the goals that they could concede.

Our tip is for a close game with a 1-2 win for Newcastle United after 90 minutes. Looking forward to this.
