Fulham-Newcastle is a match valid for the ninth day of the Premier League: here the probable formations, where to see it on TV and the prediction
FULHAM – NEWCASTLE | Saturday 4pm
Right now Fulham are ahead of Newcastle. And that is already news. The team coached by Silva has started the season well, winning several important results, and also showing that they can stay high up in the league. Of course, Newcastle are a team built to at least qualify for next season’s European Championships after being relegated for a while last year, but Howe’s men are currently lacking in the results department.
There is little chance of an away win in this ninth Premier League fixture, where there is already a round of fixtures to make up after the Queen’s death stoppage. Just as difficult it seems that Fulham can win against the Bianconeri. In short, even by exclusion, a draw seems written. Perhaps with one goal per team. The last five meetings between the two teams, however, see Newcastle ahead: two wins for the Bianconeri, both of which have come away. You might say: two doesn’t equal three. But things compared to past seasons have changed.

The Prediction
A tie this one. Race that should give a point each that would certainly allow Fulham to continue to stay on top. Less well for Newcastle who would, however, collect their third X in a row.
