Follow live coverage as Newcastle United face Fulham in the Premier League today.

The Magpies are flying high under Eddie Howe, fourth in the table and unbeaten since the end of August in this competition - though they did lose to Sheffield Wednesday in the FA Cup recently. Goalless draws with Leeds and Arsenal recently leave them slightly adrift of the Manchester clubs above them, but a top-four finish this term would represent huge progress.

Fulham, meanwhile, are into the top six after four wins on the spin, including a derby win over Chelsea last time out. Aleksandar Mitrovic returns from suspension today to face his former club.

We will bring you all the action and updates from today's game in the live blog below:

DISALLOWED!! Mitrovic slips as he goes to strike the penalty and touches it twice. It goes into the net but the referee rules it out for hitting it twice.

PENALTY!! Fulham were appealing for a penalty for a foul on Pereira but it is actually the next challenge from Trippier on De Cordova-Reid which catches the eyes of the VAR officials. Robert Jones goes over to check the incident and awards the penalty.

The game is really opening up and Newcastle come alive through Almiron down the left. Diop, who has made numerous key blocks, is there once again to snuff out the danger and concede a corner with a block.
