Fulham Preview – Can the Cottagers keep up fine form?
Fulham were promoted as champions from the EFL Championship last season, and the Cottagers will be hoping to avoid another instant return. Marco Silva’s men have been good up until now, winning three times already.
Fulham are riding high in sixth at present, accumulating 11 points from seven fixtures. They have won three, drawn two and lost two, scoring 12 times to boot. The victories have come against Brentford, Brighton & Hove Albion and Nottingham Forest, and they have picked up draws with Liverpool and Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Before the break, the Cottagers beat Forest in a five-goal thriller at the City Ground. Can they follow that up with another three points here? BetVictor are offering 2/1 for a home win.
Newcastle United Preview – Will the Magpies pick up first win since opening day?
Newcastle United have made themselves tough to beat this season, with five of their opening seven matches ended in draws. Only Liverpool, who needed a last-gasp goal, have beaten Eddie Howe’s side so far.
On the flip side, Newcastle have not won in the Premier League since the opening weekend of the season. In game one, goals from Fabian Schar and Callum Wilson was enough for a 2-0 home success over Steve Cooper’s Forest.
