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.

We will bring you all the action and updates from today's game in the live blog below:

Saint-Maximin is eager to impress off the bench and has received the ball on numerous occasions in the early periods of this second half. Tete has largely stayed composed and dealt well with his opposite number. Saint-Maximin's latest effort is a low cross but Diop is there to clear it well away from danger.

Pereira's corner is well-hit with pace. Pope misjudges the flight but reacts well to punch it out for another corner which Newcastle can clear.

Again the threat is down the right wing. Trippier and Almiron combine well and a recovering Fulham tackle sends it out for another corner. Trippier's cross is met by Wilson but his header is well wide.

The delivery from the resulting free-kick is poor, once again, from Trippier as it sails over and out for a throw-in.
