Confirmed Newcastle team v Fulham – Willock, Isak, Trippier, Kelly all start

The confirmed Newcastle team v Fulham has now been announced.

Newcastle United looking to make it thirteen points picked up from the opening five Premier League matches.

If they do so, they would be guaranteed to go top of the Premier League table.

At least until the outcome of Man City v Arsenal on Sunday.

Newcastle United team v Fulham:

Pope, Trippier, Schar, Burn, Kelly, Joelinton, Bruno, Willock, Barnes, Isak, Gordon

So four changes from the team that started against Wolves.

IN:

Trippier, Kelly, Willock, Barnes

OUT:

Livramento, Hall, Longstaff, Jacob Murphy

So still no dream midfield trio of Tonali and the two Brazilians starting together in the Premier League this season.

However, with Joe Willock one of those coming in, along with the other trio, I think this looks arguably the strongest side Eddie Howe has been able to put out so far this season.

Great to see Alexander Isak ok to start obviously, after his injury scare.

A lot of options on that bench if Eddie Howe chooses/has to change things.

Subs:

Dubravka, Tonali, Krafth, Osula, Hall, Livramento, Almiron, Longstaff, Jacob Murphy
