Tom Cairney
34-Year-Old
Fulham
Premier
Available vs. Newcastle
Cairney (back) will be available against Newcastle United on Saturday, manager Marco Silva told media during Thursday's pre-match press conference. "[Tom] Cairney, nothing special [with the injury] as we expected, is going to be in contention," Silva said.
ANALYSIS
Cairney was forced off in the 64th minute of Saturday's 1-0 loss against Arsenal due to a back issue, but the injury wasn't serious, and the midfielder should be an option in midfield once again. With Sasa Lukic back and Sander Berge a staple in midfield for the Cottagers, though, Cairney is expected to be an option off the bench for Silva.

Deals with minor back issue
Cairney was forced off in the 64th minute of Saturday's 1-0 loss against Arsenal due to a back issue, coach Marco Silva confirmed in a press conference, according to Four Four Two. "Tom was something in his back. He felt it when he jumped for one ball. Doesn't look so serious. That's a different one; it was a knock there. He was not feeling good. I fear that next week he's going to be another absence for us."
