Newcastle vs. Chelsea Match Analysis and Prediction

After two weeks of international football, the Premier League action is back this weekend. All eyes shift at St. James Park this Saturday as Newcastle welcomes Chelsea. The match kickoffs at 3:30 pm.

A win this weekend could see the Blues rise to the top of the Premier League. However, it remains a hard hassle for Frank Lampard, given the Blues record at St. James Park.

Chelsea has won five of their last seven Premier League matches with Newcastle. However, the side has only one of their last seven trips to St. James Park. It spells five losses at the Park, including their last defeat in the previous season.

St. James Park is proving a hard case for the Blues over the recent past. Despite their pick in form, it remains a hard question given their recent history. With Liverpool and Man City looking far from their best, Chelsea’s task remains to take advantage.

Lampard’s side has also won four games in a row with an aggregate score of 14-1. A win this weekend will ensure their title chances this season. The Blues currently sit unbeaten in six Premier League matches and eight across all competitions.

The Magpies managed to pick wins against West Ham, Everton, and Burnley so far this season. Also, the side has taken points off sides such as Tottenham and Wolves in the league.
