Newcastle United will be hoping to return to winning ways here following a 2-0 Premier League defeat last time out to Bournemouth.
In that match, Newcastle United had 52% possession and 8 attempts at goal with 5 on target. On the other side, Bournemouth had 19 shots at goal with 10 of them on target. Dominic Solanke (60′, 73′) was the scorer for Bournemouth.
A recurring trait of more recent Newcastle United games is seeing a zero in the scoreline.
From their previous sextet of matches before this one, in as many as 5 of them a bet on “Both Teams to Score” would’ve been a loser. Nonetheless, we must now wait to see if the trend shall be replicated in this upcoming match.
In their previous game, Chelsea drew 4-4 in the Premier League match with Manchester City.
In that game, Chelsea managed 45% possession and 17 shots at goal with 9 on target. For Chelsea, the goals were scored by Thiago Silva (29′), Raheem Sterling (37′), Nicolas Jackson (67′) and Cole Palmer (95′). At the other end, Manchester City had 15 shots on goal with 10 on target. Erling Haaland (25′, 47′), Manuel Akanji (45′) and Rodri (86′) scored for Manchester City.
Indicating their partiality to high-scoring encounters, goals have been seen as many as 26 times in the prior six games in which Chelsea have taken to the field, yielding a mean average of 4.33 goals per meeting. Opposing teams have managed 10 from this total.
Coming into this contest, Chelsea are undefeated in their previous 4 league matches away from home.
In my opinion, Chelsea and Newcastle United should both be able to find the back of the net here although it’s difficult to select a clear winner.
A close call, and i think a draw is quite likely. My tip is therefore for a very close game with a 1-1 score draw at the end of the 90.
