Chelsea - Newcastle United predictions

Though Chelsea are more likely to win this, an away win would only be slightly surprising. It’s a relatively balanced matchup, which usually means we’ll see some exciting football.

It would be a minor miracle for Newcastle United to win at Chelsea, and they’re likely aware of that. Though risky, such an outcome could bring solid profits thanks to the 3.95 price on most online sportsbooks.

Chelsea fans expected more of the team than they offered last week. Recording a draw in an away game seems decent on paper, but it’s important to remember that they were still seen as the favourites with most online bookmakers. To make matters worse, they had a lead at halftime, but their opponents Brentford equalized before the final whistle.

With 4.20 odds to win and home-field advantage, The Magpies were clearly likely to win their previous Premier League match before kick-off. The game went about as expected – they took an early lead and kept at it until they eventually won 3:0.

We’ve seen an admirable level of consistency from The Blues and their goalscorers. With 5 goals spread over the last 3 matches, we can safely expect this match not to end with a nill on the scoreboard.

With 6 goals in their own net over the last 3 fixtures, Newcastle United's backline has much to be wished for

We see several draws on record between these two teams in the past season alone. Chelsea may be the favourites, but it’s becoming very clear that they can’t easily beat The Magpies.

The hosts went through a slew of unfortunate injuries recently, rendering some of their players unavailable for the match this Monday. Ben Chilwell, Conor Gallagher, Levi Colwill, C. Ugochukwu will not be playing, though the team is still considered likely to win.

An Over 3.5 Goals bet has strong chances of success here, so we can safely recommend it. With the teams’ records for scoring and conceding in mind, the 2.55 odds offered at 1xbet are more than fair in terms of value.
