After a slow start, Fulham are picking up under Alvaro Arbeloa.
Although they did not beat Villa, they got a draw against an in-form side at Villa Park.
The Cottagers had won their previous two league games too, and are now out of the relegation zone.
They also have no fresh concerns in the squad, so can play their strongest team against Newcastle.
The same cannot be said for the Magpies, with Joelinton joining the injury list after coming off against Everton.
Mathias Fernandez-Pardo needs to be assessed too, while Jacob Ramsey is suspended.
Matthias Jaissle's tactics have reportedly been questioned by his own players, after four defeats in their last five.
That poor run has seen Newcastle slump to 13th, with Jaissle under pressure heading into the international break.

Whispers predicts: Fulham 2-0 Newcastle United
Fulham are favourites, and given Newcastle's poor form, we are backing Fulham to win at 11/10 (2.10).
Newcastle's previous two league defeats have been to nil, so BTTS – No at 6/4 (2.50) is one to watch, while Under 2.5 goals at 13/10 (2.30) has come through in Fulham's last four matches in all competitions.
Overall, we are predicting a 2-0 Fulham victory, which is available at 12/1 (13.00).
> Fulham to win at 2.10 | Likelihood: Medium
> Under 2.5 goals at 2.30 | Likelihood: Medium
> BTTS – No at 2.50 | Likelihood: Medium
