Ryan Christie heads towards the edge of the Luton box then lays it off to Marcus Tavernier. He cuts inside and curls a decent effort towards goal but it's straight at goalkeeper Thomas Kaminski in the end.

Moises Caicedo flies down the right and puts in a cross, which is cleared by Auston Trusty - who only had eight touches in the first half.

Anthony Gordon drifts in and shoots over.

Newcastle United have attempted 15 crosses in this match, which is more than they have averaged in Premier League games (across 90 minutes) this season.

A host of half-chances for Newcastle. Tino Livramento has a shot blocked inside the box.

Fulham's Andreas Pereira blocks Miguel Almiron's shot and hurts himself in doing so. The home fans aren't happy as the referee stops play so he can get treatment.
