Chelsea vs Newcastle United Preview

Newcastle United are in ninth place in the Premier League standings and have not been at their best this season. The away side slumped to a damaging 1-0 defeat at the hands of Brighton & Hove Albion last week and will need to bounce back in this fixture.

Chelsea, on the other hand, are in sixth place in the league table and have stepped up to the plate this season. The Blues eased past Panathinaikos by a 4-1 margin in the Europa Conference League in their previous game and will look to achieve a similar result this weekend.
