The final match in the Premier League this weekend is staged at Stamford Bridge on Monday. Chelsea will have the home advantage as they look to extend their unbeaten run to four matches in the competition, while Newcastle are chasing a second straight win in the Premier League.
Before Betting On Chelsea vs Newcastle
Two sides that will be hoping for better in the Premier League between now and the end of the season will lock horns on Monday. Chelsea come into this round after going three without a defeat, but they have picked up just one victory from their last five to remain eleventh in the standings. A win this week could send the Blues back into the top half.
Newcastle have also lost ground in the standings over the last few weeks after winning twice in their last five. That has seen the Magpies drop to eighth overall, but there were signs of a response in their previous match after recording a 3-0 win over Wolves. Newcastle could move to within a point of the top six with a win on Monday.
However, Chelsea boasts the better record in this fixture after losing just once in their last 28 home matches against the Magpies. Their only defeat in this fixture was suffered in May 2012. But, Newcastle recorded a 4-1 win over the Blues in the reverse fixture, meaning that they are chasing a first league double over their rivals since 1986-87.
Chelsea are winless in their last three league matches after scoring first, with each of their last two ending in draws. Meanwhile, Newcastle has scored 16 more goals than they had managed at this same point last term. But, they have shipped a staggering 26 more goals after enjoying one of the best defensive records in the Premier League last term.
