Sessegnon returns for Fulham against Newcastle at Craven Cottage

Fulham seeks to extend unbeaten run

Fulham enters Saturday unbeaten in three Premier League games under manager Alvaro Arbeloa. The team overcame a winless start to the season to climb two points above the bottom three.

On November 3, 2026, the Premier League released sprint statistics and top speed data for the fastest players in the 2026/27 season.

Injury updates and expected lineups

Ryan Sessegnon is available for Fulham after serving a three-match ban for a red card received on October 17, though he is expected to remain on the bench. Fulham expects to start Gonzalo Garcia up front with Joshua King playing behind him.

Newcastle faces several absences, including Joelinton, who sustained an injury against Everton. Jacob Ramsey is serving a one-match ban for a second yellow card received in the same game.

Newcastle also remains without Tino Livramento and goalkeeper Ewen Jaouen. Lewis Miley and Matias Fernandez-Pardo are considered doubts due to injury and a virus. William Osula is expected to start up front for Newcastle.

The Premier League season typically runs from August to May, with each of the 20 clubs playing 38 matches consisting of one home and one away game against every other team.

Historical trends and scoring patterns

Fulham has struggled at home, recording one win, one draw, and two losses in four league games. The team concedes an average of 1.75 goals per match at Craven Cottage.

Newcastle displays a distinct scoring pattern on the road, as all six of their away league goals came after half-time. Conversely, Fulham has found more success early, netting four of their six home goals before the break.

History favors Newcastle in this matchup. In the last 10 meetings between the two clubs, Newcastle won seven times and Fulham won three, with no draws recorded.
