Our prediction for this Premier League match:
Chelsea will be looking to build on a 3-1 win over Norwich City when they take on Newcastle United in the Premier League round 29. The Blues are eyeing their third consecutive league win, and they are likely to adopt an attack-minded approach in Sunday’s clash. Kai Havertz should keep his place in the starting XI, while both Chilwell and James should miss out with injuries.
The Magpies, on the other hand, did well to shock Southampton at St. Marry’s Stadium, with the team moving one step closer to securing the elite division survival. Newcastle are on a three-game winning run in the national championship, but they will have a big fish to fry in the Stamford Bridge showdown. Since Chelsea are a real force to be reckoned with at home, we predict that the visitors are going to return home empty-handed. January signing Kieran Trippier remains on the sidelines with injury for the visiting side.
