Recent form

Newcastle United

Newcastle United have shown impressive form recently, winning five of their last six matches across all competitions. The Magpies are currently enjoying a three-game winning streak, bouncing back strongly from their surprising 4-1 home defeat to Bournemouth. Their attacking prowess has been particularly noteworthy, with the team scoring 14 goals in their last six games, averaging an impressive 2.33 goals per match. Newcastle's ability to find the net has contributed to a high-scoring trend, with 83% of their recent matches seeing over 2.5 goals. The team have also demonstrated their resilience away from home, securing victories at Arsenal in the League Cup and Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League. Despite conceding four goals against Bournemouth, Newcastle have generally been solid defensively, keeping two clean sheets and conceding just seven goals in their last six outings.

Fulham

Fulham's recent form has been a mixed bag, with the Cottagers demonstrating both resilience and inconsistency in their last six matches. The team have alternated between wins, draws, and losses, failing to establish a consistent run of results. Notably, Fulham have been involved in several high-scoring affairs, with four out of their last six games featuring over 2.5 goals. Their 4-1 FA Cup victory over Watford stands out as a particularly impressive attacking display. Despite conceding in five of these six matches, Fulham have managed to maintain a positive goal difference, scoring an average of 2 goals per game while conceding 1.5. Their ability to find the net consistently is evident, with both teams scoring in 67% of these fixtures. Currently sitting 10th in the Premier League, Fulham's form suggests they are capable of competing with various levels of opposition, but they will need to improve their defensive record to climb higher up the table.

Recent home/away form

Newcastle United

Newcastle United have been in impressive form at home, with a notable run of five consecutive wins across all competitions before their most recent defeat to Bournemouth. The Magpies have been particularly prolific in front of goal, scoring an impressive 17 goals in their last six home matches, averaging 2.83 goals per game. Their defensive record has also been solid, with three clean sheets in this period. Every match in this run has seen over 2.5 goals, highlighting Newcastle's commitment to attacking football.
