Chelsea vs Newcastle – Preview, and Prediction
Chelsea vs Newcastle – Both of these Premier League teams appear to be in poor form right now. Both have been admitting defeats on a regular basis.
Chelsea has dropped three of its last five Premier League games, while Newcastle has also dropped three of its last five games, which include both league and Champions League matches.
As of right now, Newcastle and Chelsea are leading their head-to-head record by four games to none. But Chelsea is winning their last 11 games against Newcastle at this location without a loss.
Additionally, Chelsea has won four straight games at home, while Newcastle has won only one of its previous five away from home.
Compare and contrast
Looking at their previous head-to-head encounters from February 15, 2021, we find that Chelsea has won three of them, Newcastle United has won two, and there has been one draw.
During this time, the two teams shared a total of 14 goals, with the Blues scoring eight and the Magpies scoring six. It has been 2.33 goals per game on average.
The teams’ previous league meeting took place on November 25, 2023, on Premier League match day 13, with Newcastle United defeating Chelsea 4-1.
Newcastle United had a 55% possession rate and four of their 14 total attempted shots on goal were on target that day. Anthony Gordon (83′), Joelinton (61′), Jamaal Lascelles (60′), and Alexander Isak (13′) were the scorers.
Chelsea, on the other hand, had seven total shots on goal, only one of which was on target. Raheem Sterling scored at 23′. Simon Hooper served as the match referee.
Although we tend to believe that Newcastle United should have plenty of opportunities to score a goal against this Chelsea team, it’s unlikely that they will have as many as they already have.
