Hosts to secure Stamford Bridge victory
Although Chelsea dropped points from a winning position against Brentford last week, there’s reason to believe they can secure three points back at home.
The hosts have won four of their last five Premier League matches at Stamford Bridge. Three of those saw at least two goals in the match, which validates our first tip as a winner.
Newcastle have lost three of their last five Premier League matches, conceding 12 goals in the process. A 4-1 defeat to Arsenal last time out highlighted their lack of resistance.
Chelsea can exploit their weak defence and claim the three points.
Chelsea vs Newcastle United Predictions Bet 1: Chelsea and over 1.5 match goals @ 2.04 with Bet9ja
Plenty of entertainment on show
We expect Chelsea to win, but it won’t be all plain sailing for the hosts. In their last five Premier League matches, they have conceded 12 goals. Despite this, they have scored nine and the neutrals are almost guaranteed to be entertained watching the London club.
Newcastle have also been poor defensively. However, they have scored 13 in their last five Premier League games, which includes a 4-4 draw against Luton Town.
Attacking wise, both teams are far from struggling. It’s their defences that need work. With both teams showing a knack for scoring, we expect plenty of goals in this match.
Bet 2: Over 3.5 match goals @ 2.17 with Bet9ja
An early goal to set the tone
With so many goals being scored and conceded by both Chelsea and Newcastle United, we expect a frantic start in the first half.
When these sides met at St James’ Park, Newcastle scored within 13 minutes. There’s no reason to suggest that can’t happen again.
This bet has landed in three of Chelsea’s last five home matches. Meanwhile, it has won in Newcastle United’s last two Premier League away games.
Bet 3: Goal in 20 minutes @ 2.00 with Bet9ja
Second half to saviour
At slightly bigger odds, we anticipate the first half to be calmer compared to the second. An opening goal in the first 45 minutes should open up the match, especially with both teams desperate for points.
Both defences have been rather weak and so both coaches may aim to settle things down in the opening exchanges. However, with noticeable absences due to injuries, changing their fortunes won’t happen overnight.
An early goal will help land our third tip, yet both teams have the potential to turn things around in the second half. With Chelsea struggling to defend leads, Newcastle won’t give up if they go a goal down.
Bet 4: NG/GG @ 2.70 with Bet9ja
