Newcastle vs Fulham confirmed lines ups as Tom Cairney and Aleksandar Mitrovic start

Scott Parker has made three changes to his side that drew with Brighton at Craven Cottage.

Aleksandar Mitrovic finally makes his return to the start XI along with Tom Cairney as Bobby De Cordova-Reid and Ruben Loftus-Cheek miss out but find a place on the bench.

Mario Lemina once again rotates with Harrison Reed in the centre too

.

Parker hinted at Mitrovic's return in his press conference.

He said: "He’s in a good pace and he’s getting up to speed. No doubt like I said we have a lot of games coming up and he’s going to be in and around it when he’s called up. "

De Cordova-Reid has recovered enough to line up among the subs after suffering a quad injury against the Seagulls.

Parker said: "Bobby Reid’s got a little bit of an issue with his quad which he picked up in the first half. It’s a recovery day so we’ll see where he is a little more tomorrow and see where he improves from there."

*Ahead of kick off, De Cordova-Reid came in as Ivan Cavaleiro picked up an injury warming up.

Fulham XI: Areola, Aina, Andersen, Adarabioyo, Robinson, Lemina, Anguissa, Cavaleiro, Cairney, Lookman, Mitrovic
