Fulham vs Newcastle: Preview, predictions and lineups
Newcastle travel to Fulham on Saturday aiming to beat the Cottagers for the third time this season.
Raul Jimenez's early red card killed the reverse fixture on Tyneside as Newcastle sauntered to a 3-0 win before the Magpies knocked Fulham out of the FA Cup in January.
Victories at Craven Cottage have been hard to come by for opponents this term, with Fulham's tough week on the road further underlining just how reliant they've been on their home form. Marco Silva's side were beaten 3-1 by Nottingham Forest on Wednesday after Rodrigo Muniz's stunning acrobatics rescued a point at Bramall Lane last weekend.
After staging a dramatic comeback to beat West Ham, Paul Dummett handed Everton a point on a plate after he pulled down Ashley Young to gift Everton a late penalty. Eddie Howe's injury-plagued squad have their work cut out if they're to qualify for Europe next season and points on the road have been illusive.
Here's preview of Saturday's Premier League clash.

Fulham are one of few sides with a clean bill of health, but Silva will almost certainly make several changes to the starting XI for Newcastle's visit.
Tom Cairney, Bobby De Cordova Reid and Willian are three who should come back into the side.
