Newcastle have managed to come out on top in their last six encounters against their upcoming opponents. The Magpies have had an impressive start to the season, remaining unbeaten thus far. Anthony Gordon, who netted 11 league goals last season, will be looking to continue his goal-scoring form.

Despite not always playing their best, Newcastle have been able to secure results this season. With three wins and a draw in their four league games, they are looking to extend their positive run with a victory against Fulham. Eddie Howe’s team showed resilience in their last match against Wolves, coming from behind to claim a 2-1 victory thanks to goals from Fabian Schar and Harvey Barnes.

One advantage that Newcastle have over their rivals is their lack of European football commitments. Meanwhile, Fulham had to endure a grueling EFL Cup match against Preston on Tuesday, which ended in a marathon penalty shootout with North End emerging as the victors.

The Magpies will have fresher legs going into this game, and their recent record against Fulham is nothing short of impressive. They are unbeaten in their last nine meetings and have emerged victorious in their last six encounters. Last season, Newcastle met Fulham three times and won all three matches without conceding a single goal.

It is clear that Newcastle have a psychological edge going into this game, and they will be looking to continue their dominance over Fulham. The visitors will be confident in their ability to secure another positive result.
