  • Venue: St. James' Park (Newcastle)

After a strong start to the season, Newcastle has hit a rough patch. Their loss to Chelsea on Sunday dropped them down to 12th place, marking five straight matches without a win. This dip in form has started to expose a key issue: Newcastle’s owners weren’t particularly active during the transfer window. While the squad still has quality, the defense seems limited, and the attackers aren’t firing on all cylinders.

Meanwhile, Chelsea’s win at home propelled them to 5th in the standings, just a point behind Arsenal and Aston Villa. They’ve got a deep roster that makes them a constant threat, but special credit goes to Cole Palmer, who’s been the team’s backbone and clinched yet another winning goal over the weekend. With a bit more calm from his teammates, Palmer could have added a few assists to his tally as well.

Newcastle vs Chelsea pick: BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE

In their previous match, Chelsea dominated the play and created plenty of chances, with Palmer taking charge. Newcastle leaned on a counter-attacking strategy, but fatigue is becoming evident, and they will likely make adjustments this time around, especially with the boost of playing at home. The last time Chelsea visited St. James’ Park, Newcastle put four past them. Given both teams' tendencies, we’re anticipating a high-energy clash with goals from each side.
