The Magpies gear up to host West London outfit!

The St. James Park Stadium in Newcastle upon Tyne gears up to host the Matchweek 9 fixtures of the English Premier League 2025-26, where the home team Newcastle United take on Fulham FC.

Despite an underwhelming campaign in the Premier League, the Magpies are coming after a 3-0 win over Jose Mourinho’s Benfica in the UEFA Champions League. They are placed 14th and would need a win to penetrate into the top ten. They are being led by former Bournemouth and Burnley gaffer Eddie Howe.

Fulham, on the other are just a point and a spot behind the Magpies. They lost three back-to-back games in the EPL against Arsenal, Villa and Bournemouth after a strong start. They are being led by Marco Silva, who has previously been at the managerial helm of clubs like Everton, Watford and Sporting CP.

Kick-off:

• Location: Newcastle, England
• Stadium: St. James Park
• Date: Saturday, October 25
• Kick-off Time: 7:30 p.m. IST
• Referee: Tony Harrington
• VAR: In use

Players to Watch

The veteran English right back notably scored that opening goal for England against Croatia in the semi-finals of the FIFA World Cup 2018. He has so far played 7 games for the Magpies in EPL this term and will captain the side once again in the upcoming match.
