Prediction: 2-0
Fulham
Fulham continue to struggle in the Premier League. Even though many people expected that new coach Claudio Ranieri would turn things around at Craven Cottage, the capital club are still stuck at the bottom of the Premier League standings. The Cottagers failed to impress in a 2-0 loss to West Ham United at the weekend and seeing that they are on a four-game winless run in the English top flight, it is no surprise the newcomers are considered underdogs in Saturday’s football game against Newcastle United. The Magpies proved their worth in a hard-fought 1-0 win at Huddersfield Town and seeing that a win over Fulham will see them escape the danger zone in the Premier League standings, we are tempted to put our money on Rafa Benitez’s troops. A man to watch in the home side will be Salomon Rondon, who scored the winner against the Terriers.
