Our Expert Predictions & Analysis on Newcastle vs Chelsea

Newcastle

The Magpies lost a crucial match to Sunderland in the last round of the English Premier League and remain at the bottom of the table. Despite their success in the Champions League, Eddie Howe's side continue to perform very inconsistently in the Premier League, frequently dropping points. The coach himself is already under considerable pressure, and his position as head coach of the Magpies is hardly secure. To improve their standing in the league, Newcastle urgently need to put together a good winning streak, but starting one in the upcoming match will be difficult given the status and caliber of their next opponent. On the other hand, Howe's side can put up a worthy fight against any club at home.

Chelsea

The Londoners finally ended their three-match winless streak in the English Premier League last night, beating Everton at home. Heading into the new Premier League round, Chelsea sits fourth in the table, but Enzo Maresca's side are clearly hoping for more and still dream of joining the title race. Like Newcastle, the Blues certainly need to improve their results soon to begin closing the gap on leaders Arsenal and Manchester City. Chelsea's top scorer in the current English Premier League season is Pedro Neto, who has scored five goals and provided two assists.

Game Totals Prediction

An interesting opening match of the latest round of the English Premier League, with bookmakers refusing to pick a clear favorite and offering even odds on both teams to win. Both Newcastle and Chelsea will be motivated to take all three points in this head-to-head match, so there's hope for some spectacular football from them, as well as plenty of goals. Hopefully, the opponents won't disappoint in terms of scoring, and a promising bet in this case could be a bet on Over 2.5 goals at odds of 1.69.
