Fulham Morning Round-Up, Friday 6th November 2026: Newcastle Preview Takes Centre Stage

There's not a huge amount of fresh news this morning, but all eyes are turning towards Saturday's Premier League clash with Newcastle United. Sports Mole has previewed the game, running through predictions, team news and possible lineups for both sides (Sports Mole), and has also taken a closer look at how Fulham themselves might set up, offering a predicted starting XI for the match (Sports Mole).

Elsewhere, the Evening Standard has looked back at Alvaro Arbeloa's situation at the club, examining how he avoided the sack and the major problem that still remains for him to address (Evening Standard).

On the transfer front, The Sun reports that Manchester United could look at a trio of targets in the January window, including a player they describe as a "Fulham back-up," amid claims that funds at Old Trafford will be limited (The Sun). As ever with this kind of speculation, it's worth treating as just a report for now rather than anything concrete.

Looking ahead, Fulham fans have something to look forward to away from the pitch too, with the club's website counting down to the Fulham Pier Lights Switch On event, due to take place this evening (FulhamFC.com).

So, with the Newcastle preview pieces dominating the agenda, the big focus for today will be building towards Saturday's Premier League meeting with the Magpies at Craven Cottage, as both the team news and possible lineups start to take shape ahead of kick-off (Sports Mole) (Sports Mole).
