Form guide for Chelsea vs. Newcastle
Let’s have a look at the most recent games for these two teams:
Chelsea
Frank Lampard endured a horrific start to his return to the club as caretaker manager, losing each of his first six matches in charge, scoring only two goals in the process. Things haven’t exactly been rosy since then, either, but Chelsea could at least stop the rot by winning away to Bournemouth, which they then followed up with a home draw against Nottingham Forest.
Newcastle
A run of five league matches without a victory in February and March threatened to derail Newcastle’s season. Still, they’ve bounced back superbly, losing only two of their subsequent 12 games in the Premier League. This run included crucial wins over top-four rivals Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur and Brighton. Other than a home defeat to Arsenal, the Magpies have been in superb goalscoring form of late, posting two 4-1 wins (vs the Seagulls and Everton), a 5-1 victory (against West Ham), and a 6-1 triumph (over Spurs) in the last few weeks.
Chelsea vs. Newcastle prediction
In any of the last 15 years, Chelsea would be odds-on favorites to see off Newcastle comfortably. That, however, is not the case this season, with Eddie Howe’s men very much on the up and the Blues in a state of disarray.
Prediction: Chelsea 0-2 Newcastle
