English Premier
2008-11-09 - Fulham vs Newcastle United
A Sports Betting Pick by Cruiser
Analysis:Fulham will not have it easy when they welcome the visit of Newcastle United keen to make it three wins out of three when they visit Craven Cottage.
Newcastle are coming strong at the right time after ending a seven game winless streak to beat West Bromwich Albion last month.On Monday Night Football they defied the odds and beat an in form Aston Villa side at St. James's Park.
The hosts Fulham have managed just one win in their last seven matches and currently lie in 16th spot Roy Hogdson's boys were beaten against Everton in their last match and to make things worse they are quite poor upfront having scored just eight goals in ten matches. They currently hold the worst record of scoring goals in the Premiership.
Goals are guaranteed in this match as Newcastle themselves have a poor away record and since 2006, they have managed just two clean sheets away from home.
With regards to the team news, Fulham forward Seol Ki-Hyeon is rated doubtful ahead of this clash as he is struggling with a knee injury. Defender Toni Kallio has shaken off his virus but Fredrik Stoor is unavailable because of a cold.
Also out of this clash is midfielder Dickson Etuhu who will only return to training on Monday after overcoming his knee injury.
As for Newcastle captain Michael Owen at best he will start from the bench in this match as even though he appeared as a substitute in the 2-0 win over Aston Villa, Kinnear is likely to keep faith with the starting eleven that beat Aston Villa. Also Midfielder Danny Guthrie may join Owen among the substitutes because of Nicky Butt's return against Villa in their last match.
Go for this match to end in a draw.
Cheers and good luck,
