Newcastle Impressive at Home
EFL Cup holders Newcastle impressed in their opening two games of the competition. The Toon thrashed Bradford 4-1 and beat Tottenham 2-0 at home to reach the quarter-final.
The Tottenham victory came during a six-match winning streak at home. Newcastle followed that result with a 2-0 win over Athletic Bilbao and a 2-1 triumph against Man City at St James' Park.
Eddie Howe’s side were on a four-match unbeaten run, including a 2-2 home draw with Tottenham and a 2-1 win over Burnley.
That streak ended with a 1-0 defeat at local rivals Sunderland. Nick Woltemade scored an own goal in the second half and the Toon couldn’t reply with two shots on target.
Fulham in Patchy Form
Fulham beat lower league sides Bristol City 2-0 and Cambridge 1-0 in the early EFL Cup rounds. The West Londoners then edged Wycombe on penalties following a 1-1 draw.
The Cottagers have struggled for consistency recently and have lost three of their last six matches. Defeats came at Everton 2-0 and at home against Man City 5-4 and Crystal Palace 2-1.
Marco Silva’s outfit responded by defeating Burnley 3-2 on Saturday. Fulham had 2.23 XG and Emile Smith-Rowe, Calvin Bassey and Harry Wilson got on the scoresheet.

He's already doing individual work, probably some weeks, but I cannot give you a timescale because we see how he's going to react this week.”
