da stake casino： Fulham play Newcastle tonight in the Premier League and it will be an interesting game for a number of reasons. I will again be playing the Picklive fantasy football game, and here is who I will be choosing.
da pinup bet： The question concerning Newcastle is how they will get on without Andy Carroll, and with that in mind Ameobi might be worth a punt tonight. Newcastle have not had Carroll all month but have still managed 8 points from 12 without him. Ameobi has been leading their front line in his absence and they have not changed their style of football massively. I expect Newcastle will look to test out Fulham’s Stockdale with some direct balls into the box, since Schwarzer is away in the Asian cup.
If you fancy a bigger risk Leon Best recently scored a hat-trick. Their other option is Nile Ranger, a similar player to Andy Carroll but obviously more raw. I hope he will come good for Newcastle in the long run. I expect him to pick up a few goals in the second half of the season, but not tonight at Fulham, bare him in mind for future weeks.
They still have goal threats from midfield in Barton and Nolan. These two are likely to be involved in most of their goals, Barton being their set piece taker and Nolan being their top scorer now Carroll is a Liverpool player. Barton, has been much better in a disciplinary sense this year as well, so I am not too worried about him getting a card.
Fulham’s Dempsey has been in good form in front of goal this year, scoring 8 times in the league. He is good in the air and with his feet so I will be picking him. Other than that, Murphy recently proved his worth, getting a brace of penalties against Spurs. He also takes set pieces, and with the likes of Hangeland lurking, Murphy might prove a shrewd bet. The other players I would consider are Simon Davies who has been in good form this year with 2 goals and 4 assists, and Andy Johnson who is now fit again. He scored away at Wigan and has started the last 4 EPL games.
Tonight I am going for Barton, who provides excellent balls into the box. I narrowly decided to pick him over Ameobi, because if Ameobi doesn’t score he is likely to score fewer points. The other two I am choosing are Dempsey and Johnson, since I fancy Fulham to get 3 points tonight and a goal to come from one of these two.
