Newcastle’s absentee list continues to grow as Kieran Trippier misses today’s encounter against Fulham due to a suspension and Anthony Gordon is an injury doubt.

Having been knocked out of European competition during the week the Magpies will want a positive response at St. James’ Park this afternoon as their best chance of playing more Champions League football is to earn a top four spot.

The seventh place side welcome Fulham (10th) who have won their last two Premier League games 5-0, against Nottingham Forest and West Ham. Can they do the same today?

Follow the latest action from the Premier League below.

Muniz is back to his feet, a big boost for Silva and Fulham. Can they find a way back into this contest? A goal back and this could get interesting.

Muniz, who made his return from injury off the bench, is down in his team's box and looks in pain. Silva has used all of his substitutions, so he will be keen for Muniz to get back to his feet.

Silva makes a trio of changes. Palhinha is the first to make way, with Reed on in his place.

Since beating Everton 1-0 on the opening weekend, Fulham are winless in their last seven Premier League away games (three draws, four losses). They last had a longer winless run on the road in the same campaign in their first 17 of 2018-19 (two draws, 15 defeats).

Fulham have their first foray forward in a while as they look for a way back into the game, though Cairney's free-kick is caught by Dubravka.
