Bet on Newcastle to win
Fifth place Newcastle will be aiming for nothing less than a win in this game in order to move into the top four. They enter this clash fifth in the league and only trail fourth place Manchester City on goal difference. The Magpies have been in good form since the start of the year, having won five out of their last six games in all competitions. The one hiccup in that time came when they suffered a 4-1 defeat to Bournemouth.
Fulham have shown fight this season and are tenth in the league. They will also so fight in this game but in the end, Newcastle’s home advantage should help them to get over the line.
Bet on Newcastle to win 2-1
In Anthony Gordon and Alexander Isak, Newcastle have two of the Premier League’s best attacking players and it is those two who can be expected to cause big problems for the Cottagers in this game.
One of Newcastle’s weaknesses this season has been a habit of conceding sloppy goals. This has been a reason why they did not really challenge for a top four finish last season after earning a Champions League place two seasons ago. It is also perhaps the biggest reason why the Magpies cannot really challenge for the league just as yet.
There is a good chance that Fulham will find a goal of their own against the run of play in this game which could be notched by someone like Adama Traore.
Bet on Alexander Isak to score
Newcastle may find it hard to keep Isak on their books heading into next season. He has scored 17 goals in the Premier League this season, establishing himself as one of the Premier League’s and Europe’s best attackers. The Swede will be a thorn in the defence of Fulham in this game and should find the back of the net at least once.
