Match description

Fulham is the favorite because they score on average 1.56 goals per home match with xG 1.51, whereas Newcastle average only 0.94 goals away with xG 1.43 – the difference in real finishing is about 0.62 goals per game. The hosts create more chances (13.78 shots and 3.89 on target per match) and have better conversion (11% vs 8%), which translates into greater efficiency in the final third. It is also notable that Fulham failed to score in 17% of their home games, while Newcastle failed to score in 39% of their away matches, which severely limits the visitors’ offensive threat on the road. In the last 5 matches Fulham have scored a total of 2 goals and averaged 1.0 point per game, while Newcastle have scored 8 goals and averaged 1.4 points per game; this shows the visitors’ attacking activity, but their weaker away finishing (0.94 goals/away match and only 22% away wins) leaves the edge to the hosts. Considering Fulham’s higher home win percentage (56% vs 22%), lower average goals conceded at home (1.11 vs 1.28) and superior chance conversion, I predict a home victory.
