Fulham Look to Avoid Defeat at Home

Fulham sit 15th after nine games yet hold a slight edge at Craven Cottage where they average 1.5 goals scored. Newcastle have conceded 2.0 goals per away game this season and arrive after three defeats in their last five matches. The home side has managed two wins and a draw in their past five outings while keeping clean sheets in three of nine league games overall. Head-to-head records show Newcastle winning seven of the last ten meetings but those results stretch back across multiple seasons. Both teams have seen both sides score in five of their recent fixtures yet Fulham's home scoring rate suggests they can stay in the contest. Newcastle's attack has found the net at a steady 1.5 goals per game but their defensive lapses away from home create openings. The game may turn on whether Newcastle can break down Fulham's back line without conceding first themselves.
