Fulham Form
Newcastle Form
The Premier League clash between Fulham and Newcastle United is scheduled for Saturday at 15:00 at the Craven Cottage, London. Fulham faces a tough challenge against a high-flying Newcastle side. As both teams eye a critical win on Saturday, we break down the key factors for this match and provide detailed betting tips.
Fulham are sitting in 12th place after securing only one win in their last five games. Despite Raul Jimenez and Emile Smith-Rowe’s potential in attack, Fulham’s defensive frailties have been a concern, especially after conceding in stoppage time against West Ham in a recent 1-1 draw.
On the other side, Newcastle’s form has been excellent, sitting in third place with three wins and one draw. Their potent attack, led by Alexander Isak and supported by Harvey Barnes and Anthony Gordon, has made them a formidable side, particularly against a Fulham defence that has yet to keep a clean sheet this season. With Newcastle’s dominant head-to-head record against Fulham, our Fulham vs Newcastle betting tips lean toward a victory for the Magpies.
Looking at recent form and head-to-head statistics, Newcastle United is favoured to come out on top. Fulham’s defence has struggled, and Newcastle’s attacking trio are well equipped to exploit the gaps left in Fulham’s backline. Given Newcastle’s unbeaten record in their last nine meetings against Fulham, it’s hard to see Marco Silva’s men reversing the trend. Thus, our match prediction is a comfortable win for Newcastle, as their attack continues to impress while their defence remains resilient.
Match Prediction: Newcastle To Win @ 27/20 with bet365.
Taking into account both teams’ form and defensive records, the scoreline is likely to reflect Newcastle’s strength in attack combined with Fulham’s defensive issues. Newcastle has been scoring consistently, while Fulham’s inability to maintain clean sheets adds weight to a convincing away win. A score prediction of 2-0 to Newcastle seems the most probable outcome.
Correct Score Prediction: Newcastle 2-0 @ 14/1 with bet365.
In terms of goals, Newcastle’s matches have generally seen a fair share of scoring, with two or more goals in most of their games this season. However, Fulham’s recent performances and this fixture’s history suggest that it may not be a high-scoring match. Our Over/Under suggestion is under 2.5 goals as Fulham’s defence will look to keep it tight, while Newcastle may settle for a controlled, professional victory.
Over/Under Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals @ 6/5 with bet365.
For this match, a solid bet builder tip is to back Newcastle to win, combined with Newcastle to have the most corners and most shots on target. Newcastle’s superior attacking form, with players like Alexander Isak and Harvey Barnes creating multiple chances, makes them the favourites in these areas. Fulham’s defensive vulnerabilities further increase the likelihood of Newcastle dominating in both shots and corners.
Bet Builder Tip: Match result will be Newcastle and Most Corners: Newcastle and Most Shots on Target: Newcastle @ 11/1 with bet365.
