Newcastle United - Fulham betting tips and odds

It’s easy to point out Newcastle United as the clear favourites, but we wouldn’t call this match completely one-sided. The hosts are definitely more likely to win between the two, but a tie game is another possibility. An away win would be quite a surprise, but we’ve seen bigger upsets.

Fulham are massive underdogs and will be extremely lucky to avoid complete annihilation at the hands of The Magpies.

The hosts returned from their most recent Premier League trip with a point in their bag. Based on the betting odds available, it was always going to be a tight game and The Magpies can be satisfied with the fact they held level both at the halftime mark and after the full-time whistle.

Initially priced at 2.15, the away team’s victory in the previous round caught most of us by surprise. Thanks to the support of their home fans, The Cottagers managed to snag an unexpected lead in the first half and eventually recorded a narrow, but exhilarating victory.

The Magpies’s form feels especially strong in the defensive department. They haven’t conceded a single goal in their last three Premier League outings.

The Cottagers have hit a bit of a purple patch recently with 4 consecutive victories, and they’ll no doubt be looking to extend it in round 20.

The Magpies have built up a lot of confidence with a successful half of the season behind them. That said, there’s plenty of time to lose the number 3rd spot they secured so far. They should be able to take this game, though, and inch themselves closer to the leading spot.

With 2 points standing between them and a Europa League qualification as we move into round 20, Fulham’s goals are quite clear. Unfortunately, it’s hard to feel optimistic about their short-term profits – they’re heading into an unfavourable matchup at St. James' Park.

It will be interesting to see if The Cottagers manage to beat this odds in this, the second clash with The Magpies this season. The first time around they lost with to a 1-point difference.

The hosts may be favourites to win the match, but their lineup is in a somewhat weakened state. Paul Dummett, Emil Krafth, Matt Targett are all sidelined due to injury, which makes Newcastle’s position as favourites a bit shakier than it might seem.

An Over 2.5 Goals is a great bet if you like staying on the safe side. The betting value for this market is strong compared even to the 1.75, which makes this an easy betting prediction to make.
