Premier League: Newcastle United @ Chelsea

What will be the match result?

Newcastle United: Win, Draw or Lose By 1

@ Chelsea: Win By 2+ Goals

 

Current odds:

Newcastle United (+1.5): (+108)

Chelsea (-1.5): (-138)

 

Chelsea made hard work of Championship side Barnsley but came away with a 1-0 win, scoring with their only shot on target, to advance to the quarter-finals where they will face Sheffield United. They have kept four clean sheets in five matches under Thomas Tuchel but are yet to really get going in attack.

Newcastle have shown signs of improvement of late but the absence of Callum Wilson, not just for this game but in the coming weeks, is a massive blow for Steve Bruce’s side. Wilson has directly contributed to 60% of Newcastle’s Premier League goals this season, a greater share than any other single player in the league this season.

Chelsea have won each of their last eight home matches against Newcastle and should continue that streak here. With Wilson injured, another home sheet seems likely too.
