Chelsea vs. Newcastle: The English Premier League’s Matchday No. 28 will feature Chelsea against Newcastle. On Monday night, they squared off at Stamford Bridge. Neither team has achieved their preseason goals. As of right now, their present position in the league rankings is four points apart.
In seven of Chelsea’s last eight games across all competitions, both teams scored. In eight of Newcastle’s past nine Premier League games, the team has scored at least four goals. This season, Alexander Isak has made 16 Premier League starts and scored 11 goals.
Chelsea has only one win in five league games. They’ll play tonight after a 2-2 tie with Brentford. Mauricio Pochettino’s team played another terrible defense. They gave underperforming Brentford too much room. They have little chance of keeping things calm in the back against the magpies.
Newcastle is more upbeat going into the game. At St. James’ Park last Saturday, they destroyed the Wolves 3-0. Eddie Howe’s club had goals from Anthony Gordon and the in-form Alexander Isak on the scoreboard that day. For the Magpies, it was their third league win in their previous six games.
