Gordon, Willock and Hall all start – Confirmed Newcastle team vs Fulham

[ad_1]

The team sheets are in ahead of today’s 3pm kick off at Craven Cottage, where Eddie Howe’s Mags take on Marco Silva’s Fulham.

Here’s the side we’ve gone with, featuring a few changes from Tuesday’s 1-1 draw with Everton:

NUFC XI: Dubravka – Krafth, Schar, Burn (c), Hall – Longstaff, Bruno, Willock – Murphy, Isak, Gordon.

SUBS: Karius, Gillespie, Dummett, A Murphy, White, Anderson, Ritchie, Diallo, Barnes.

Anthony Gordon returns to the side after his one-game ban and Joe Willock is also recalled after he was benched in midweek. This means Harvey Barnes and Elliot Anderson drop to the bench. Perhaps the pair weren’t in a position to start twice in the space of a few days after recently returning from injuries?

Elsewhere, Jacob Murphy keeps his place down the right, with Emil Krafth at right-back, Dan Burn captaining the side from centre-back and Lewis Hall passed fit to continue at left-back after coming off with fatigue on Tuesday.

As expected,  Trippier, Botman, Lascelles, Joelinton, Wilson, Targett, Livramento, Pope, Almiron and Miley all miss out.

Fulham XI: Leno – Castagne, Tosin, Bassey, Robinson – Palhinha, Cairney – Iwobi, Andreas, Willian – Muniz.

Howay the lads!
