Still 0-0 at Craven Cottage with Newcastle looking a little more threatening after their changes - Fernandez-Pardo headed just too high from Murphy's cross shortly after coming on.

Still deadlocked at Craven Cottage as both sides make changes. Wissa had an awkward angled effort before being withdrawn by Newcastle, who have since freshened things up with Willock and Miley replacing Wissa and González, while Fulham brought on Muniz for García. Fulham remain on top in possession and shots, but fouls have increased for both sides as they look to break up the home side's rhythm with the game still goalless.

Still goalless at Craven Cottage with Fulham continuing to control possession and the overall run of play. Barnes had a chance early in the half that came close but went just wide, while Berge tried his luck from distance for Fulham but couldn't trouble Hornícek. Newcastle's fouls have crept up again as they try to stem the home side's dominance, and there was a brief stoppage for a knock to Steur. The scoreline remains unchanged.

Second half under way at Craven Cottage with the pattern unchanged so far - Fulham still holding the lion's share of possession and the overall edge in shots and corners from the first period. Nothing has happened yet to break the deadlock, with the stats barely moved since half time and the score still 0-0.

No goals at Craven Cottage, but it's been a lively, chance-filled first half. Fulham have dominated the ball throughout and had the better openings - Gonzalo García crashed a header against the bar, Bobb and King both forced saves from Hornícek, and King also headed just wide right at the death. Newcastle have had to soak up plenty of pressure and commit more fouls, but Barnes tested Leno and Hornícek has kept them level. Fulham finish the half well on top statistically too, leading on possession, shots and corners, and one minute of added time was played before the whistle. Still all to play for at 0-0.

Fulham continue to enjoy the lion's share of possession at Craven Cottage, and Josh King tested Newcastle with a well-struck effort from outside the box that was saved. Newcastle did have their own moment, with Harvey Barnes forcing Leno into a save from a shot assisted by Osula, but it's been a scrappy passage of play with plenty of free-kicks conceded, most by Newcastle. Still goalless as the half heads towards its final stages.

Fulham have continued to dominate the ball, now up to nearly 64% possession, and remain goalless at the break of this spell. Leno made a good save to deny Harvey Barnes after Murphy's cross, but it's Fulham who've had the better of the chances - Bobb saw a shot blocked after a headed pass from Charles. Newcastle are picking up a few more fouls as they try to contain the home side's pressure, though the scoreline is still level at Craven Cottage.

Fulham have edged in front in this spell without quite breaking the deadlock. Gonzalo García crashed a header against the bar from a corner, and Bobb then forced Hornícek into a save, giving the hosts a 2-0 shots count and a slight edge in possession. Newcastle have had to defend a bit more, though they've still had a corner of their own, and the game remains goalless at Craven Cottage.

A fairly even start at Craven Cottage with neither side able to carve out a clear opening yet. Fulham have shaded possession slightly and forced an early corner, while Newcastle have had joy from a corner of their own and seen Thiaw flagged offside. Robinson's free-kick on the left after Wissa's foul is the latest small flashpoint, but shots and saves remain blank for both sides.
