Prediction: 2-1
Newcastle
Fulham and Newcastle United square off against each other at Craven Cottage in the closing match of Saturday’s program in the FA Cup last 32. The Cottagers continue with their old habit of producing fine displays at home, while struggling on the travels and they are surely capable of matching the Magpies in London. All Alex Iwobi, Calvin Bassey, and Fode Ballo are on international duty, while Adama Traore remains on the sidelines with a hamstring injury.
Newcastle United, on the other hand, experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 3-2 loss to Man City and given their difficulties on the road, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the home side. Both Jacob Murphy and Callum Wilson are major doubts, while all Javier Manquillo, Joelinton, Matthew Targett, Nick Pope, Elliot Anderson, and Harvey Barnes remain in the recovery room.
Highlighted Player (Tom Cairney):
Tom Cairney is a professional footballer who plays for Fulham. His main position is central midfielder, but he plays as an attacking midfielder and a right midfielder as well. The left-footed player was born in Nottingham, England on 20 January, 1991 and he started his youth career at Leeds United.
In 2007 he moved to Hull City and he was named Hull’s Young Player of the Year for the 2008/2009 campaign. After making 70 league appearances for the Tigers he joined Blackburn Rovers on 1 August, 2013 on loan and on 2 January, 2014 he signed a permanent deal with the Riversiders. At the end of the 2014/2015 Championship campaign he joined Fulham.
Tom Cairney’s father is Scottish and, as a result, the Fulham footballer decided to represent Scotland on the international stage. Cairney has 2 caps for Scotland U-21 and he made 6 appearances for Scotland U-21 team. It has to be noted that he suffered a serious injury in August 2012. The injury forced him to be out of contention for over three months.
Highlighted Team (Newcastle):
Newcastle United failed to impress in the 2015/2016 Premier League campaign and, as a result, they dropped to the English second tier. The Magpies will host their rivals at their St. James’ Park in the 2016/2017 Championship campaign and it has to be noted that the capacity of the stadium is 52,354.
Newcastle United have won four domestic trophies (1904/1905, 1906/1907, 1908/1909, 1926/1927), while lifting six FA Cup titles (1910, 1924, 1932, 1951, 1952, 1955) and a number of star players were part of the St. James’ Park outfit in the past.
David Ginola, Michael Owen, Alan Shearer, Les Ferdinand, Nolberto Solano, Gary Speed, Obafemi Martins and Kevin Nolan are notable footballers who are still remembered at the club. Newcastle’s fiercest rivals are Sunderland and there have always been fireworks when the two local rivals face each other in the Tyne-Wear derby. The color of Newcastle’s home kit is black and white.
