Newcastlevs.Fulham

Eddie Howe's side returned to winning ways last weekend when they beat basement club Southampton 3-1 away from home, helping them move level on points with Manchester City in fourth spot.

Meanwhile, Marco Silva's men were beaten 1-0 at home to Manchester United last time out and have slipped to 10th in the table, seven points behind to top seven and eight points behind Newcastle in fifth.

Here, Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at the head-to-head record and previous meetings between the two sides.

Head-to-head record

Previous meetings: 81

Newcastle wins: 34

Draws: 15

Fulham wins: 32

Newcastle United and Fulham have faced each other a total of 81 times across all competitions, with the Magpies just edging the head-to-head record having posted 34 wins to the Cottagers' 32, while there have also been 15 draws between these two teams.

Their very first meeting took place back in March 1908 when Newcastle thrashed Fulham 6-0 in the FA Cup semi-finals, almost two years before beating them by a 4-0 scoreline in the second round.

Between 1934 and 1984, Newcastle and Fulham regularly butted heads in Divisions One and Two, with the Cottagers claiming 15 wins compared to the Magpies' 13 across 38 league encounters. Newcastle did come out on top in three of their five domestic cup ties during this period, though.

In the Premier League era (since 1992-93), Newcastle have faced Fulham on 33 occasions in the top flight and have won 15 times compared to the Cottagers' 13 triumphs, while the spoils have been shared just four times.

Fulham initially got the better of Newcastle, winning 12 times between 2001 and 2014, while they Cottagers also won both home and away against the Magpies when they locked horns in the Championship in the 2016-17 campaign, winning 4-1 on aggregate.

However, since then, Newcastle have accumulated 20 points across their last nine Premier League meetings with Fulham, winning six of those including 4-0 and 4-1 away successes in May 2019 and October 2022 respectively.

Fulham's nine-game winless run against Newcastle was ended when Marco Silva's side secured a 3-1 home victory in the Premier League in September 2024.
