Newcastle vs Fulham score prediction
This could be a very interesting game which means it is a shame nobody outside of the stadium will get to see it in the United Kingdom, given it's a 15:00 GMT kick-off. Newcastle, as the home side with deeper pockets, should still be the favourites.
That being said, Fulham are playing their best football of the season and will arrive in the northeast full of confidence. It might not be enough to ensure they can get anything from the game but don't expect them to get steamrolled by this depleted Newcastle side.
Prediction: Newcastle 2-1 Fulham
