In the Carabao Cup, Fulham had a tough time and ended up with a 3-2 aggregate defeat against Liverpool. The first leg saw Liverpool winning 2-1 at Anfield, and then they drew 1-1 in Fulham on Wednesday.
Despite their hopes to turn things around on their home turf, Fulham’s aspirations were quickly dashed when Luis Diaz extended Liverpool’s lead to 3-1 within the first 11 minutes. Issa Diop managed to score for Fulham in the 76th minute, but unfortunately, it wasn’t enough, and it came too late.
Now, Fulham is shifting its focus to another cup challenge, hoping to avoid the embarrassment of consecutive exits from cup competitions.
Newcastle United has had a tough season, falling from the heights of the previous campaign. With only 29 points from 21 games, they currently sit in the 10th position on the league table, having lost their last four top-flight encounters.
Despite their struggles, they still hold a three-position advantage over Fulham, with an additional five points. Notably, in December, they secured a convincing 3-0 victory against Fulham in a Premier League clash at their home ground.
