Fulham vs Newcastle

, KO: 16:00 , Craven Cottage
Newcastle

Fulham and Newcastle will bring their Premier League campaigns to a close when they meet at Craven Cottage on Sunday afternoon.

The two sides go into this clash level on points, and separated by just two places in the Premier League table.

While both could still technically match 8th-placed Chelsea’s points tally, it is highly unlikely either will climb above them given the significant swing in goal difference that would be required.

Fulham head into their final home fixture of the season on the back of a 1-1 draw away to already-relegated Wolves.

It is now just one win in six for Marco Silva’s side, who have increasingly looked like a team with one eye on the beach.

That stands in stark contrast to Newcastle, who are unbeaten in three matches after dispatching West Ham 3-1 last weekend.

How the bookies view it: Toon Army to triumph

Despite winning just four of their 18 Premier League away matches this season, bet365 make Newcastle 5/4 favourites for Sunday afternoon’s clash at Craven Cottage.

Fulham are 15/8 outsiders with the same firm, while the draw is available at 14/5.

Head to head: Duo evenly matched

There is very little between the sides historically, although Newcastle just about lead the way with 36 wins to Fulham’s 33, alongside 15 draws.

Newcastle ran out 2-1 winners in this season's reverse fixture, and they can be backed at 9/1 on bet365 to win by the same scoreline on Sunday.

Players to watch: Osula offers value

With five goals across his last six appearances for Newcastle, William Osula looks terrific value to either score or assist on Sunday at 13/10 with bet365.

Fulham will look to Harry Wilson for inspiration on Sunday, and he also holds plenty of appeal in the score or assist market at 5/4 on bet365.

Predicted line-ups

Fulham will be without the injured Ryan Sessegnon, while Joachim Andersen serves the second game of a suspension following his red card against Bournemouth a fortnight ago.

For Newcastle, Sandro Tonali’s involvement on Sunday remains doubtful after he was forced off against West Ham last weekend, while Emil Krafth, Fabian Schar, Joelinton, Lewis Miley and Tino Livramento are all expected to miss out once again for the visitors.

Fulham: Leno; Castagne, Diop, Bassey, Robinson; Lukic, Cairney, Wilson, Smith Rowe, Chukwueze, Muniz

Newcastle: Pope; Hall, Thiaw, Botman, Burn; Willock, Guimaraes; Barnes, Woltemade, Ramsey; Osula

Anything else catch the eye?

Backing both teams to score alongside both sides receiving a card produces a 6/5 (bet365) Bet Builder that looks well worth supporting.

Both teams to score would have landed in six of Fulham’s last nine Premier League home fixtures, while the same has been true in 12 of Newcastle’s last 14 top-flight outings.

It is also worth noting that this combination has clicked in three of Newcastle’s last five league matches.
