Newcastle United vs Fulham LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction
Champions League-chasing Newcastle host an in-form Fulham in the Premier League
Follow live coverage as Newcastle United face Fulham in the Premier League today.
The Magpies are flying high under Eddie Howe, fourth in the table and unbeaten since the end of August in this competition - though they did lose to Sheffield Wednesday in the FA Cup recently. Goalless draws with Leeds and Arsenal recently leave them slightly adrift of the Manchester clubs above them, but a top-four finish this term would represent huge progress.
Fulham, meanwhile, are into the top six after four wins on the spin, including a derby win over Chelsea last time out. Aleksandar Mitrovic returns from suspension today to face his former club.
