Fulham have won four away Premier League games in 2022-23, as many as they managed in their previous two top-flight campaigns combined (1 in 2018-19, 3 in 2020-21). The Cottagers haven’t won five away games in a Premier League season since 2003-04. Newcastle United have kept a clean sheet in their last four Premier League matches – the Magpies have never kept five in a row in the top-flight in their entire history. They last did so in league football between August and September 2009 in the Championship. Fulham have won their last two away Premier League games, beating Crystal Palace and Leicester, keeping a clean sheet in both. They haven’t won three in a row since April/May 2008, while they’ve never won three away top-flight games in a row without conceding before.
The last English goalkeeper with five consecutive clean sheets was Fraser Forster in February 2016 for Southampton (six in a row). Aleksandar Mitrovic has scored in his last three away Premier League appearances for Fulham and could become the first ever Cottagers player to score in four in a row. He could become the second player this season to score against the Magpies at St James’ Park in the Premier League after previously playing for them in the competition, along with Ivan Toney. Callum Wilson has scored four goals in his four Premier League games against Fulham, netting in both of his appearances for Newcastle against the Cottagers.
