Match preview between Newcastle vs Fulham
In the 16th round of the English Premier League, Newcastle will face Fulham at home at St James' Park. The match is expected to be very tense and dramatic, but the advantage is leaning towards the visitors as they have a slight edge over the home team.
Newcastle are facing squad problems with a long injury list, directly impacting their gameplay. Their attack is performing much worse than at the start of the season. Their goal of securing a Champions League spot next season seems difficult, as they are currently 7 points behind the top four.
Despite playing at home, given their current crisis, it will be very difficult for Eddie Howe's team to even think about winning this match. Especially since their opponent is a Fulham team full of momentum; getting even a point would be fortunate for Newcastle.
On the other side of the pitch, Fulham are showing what can only be described as brilliant form, having just secured two crushing 5-0 victories against West Ham and Nottingham. Their attack is proving its reliability, scoring goals on every offensive move, playing a truly aggressive, "take the punches and you'll get the money" style, not shying away from fouls, while their defense continues to perform its duties seamlessly.
In this match, Fulham are highly likely to dominate the home team and take the lead, given Newcastle's recent defensive lapses. Fulham's attacking prowess is in formidable form, making a goalfest at St. James' Park a real possibility.
