Comments on the match Newcastle vs Fulham, 9:00 p.m. October 25: Paying off last year's debt

VHO - Commentary on the match Newcastle vs Fulham, round 9 of the Premier League, welcoming declining guests became an opportunity for coach Eddie Howe and his team to pay back the debt of losing 1-2 at St James' Park last season.

Newcastle vs Fulham form

Home ground is still an important support for Newcastle in the opening stage of this year's season. Although they have lost 3/7 times hosting guests, coach Eddie Howe and his team are probably not too blameworthy.

Simply because the guests who have made the home team at St James' Park regret are all big names like Liverpool, Arsenal or Barcelona. If excluding the 3 big names above, Newcastle won all 4 remaining home matches.

A few days ago, the home team had the opportunity to welcome Benfica led by Jose Mourinho. But instead of facing the annoying style from the other side, Joelinton and his teammates created a jubilant game and deservedly won 3-0.

Although their form has improved somewhat with 3 wins in their last 4 appearances in all competitions, Newcastle still has to focus on hosting Fulham. On the rankings after 8 rounds, the home team only has 9 points in hand, ranked 14th and only 4 points more than the nearest position in the red light group.

To quickly rise up and approach the European Cup group, The Magpies need to cherish every point. Facing guests who are in decline like Fulham will bring the opportunity for coach Eddie Howe and his team to convert into 3 full points.

After 3 rounds, Fulham had to leave the field empty-handed. The trip to St James' Park clearly brought the risk of continuing to get stuck in the quagmire waiting for the London team.

Remember, Fulham is one of the weakest teams on the away field. In 4 away matches since the beginning of the season, the team under the direction of coach Marco Silva has only earned 1 point, scored 3 and conceded 9 goals.

The home team at St James' Park is in high spirits after a big win against Benfica.

The fact that Fulham are smart at home and stupid in the market is the main reason why Fulham are only in 15th place, just below Newcastle by 1 point. Instead of dreaming of a ticket to the European Cup, the Craven Cottage team must now worry more about the task of escaping the bottom of the table.

But the trip to the Northeast is not all doom and gloom for the visitors. At least last season’s head-to-head record will give coach Marco Silva and his team some confidence. In both of their most recent meetings with Newcastle, Fulham won, with scores of 3-1 and 2-1.
