20:00 Monday

Chelsea will be looking to bounce back from their recent struggles when they host Newcastle United at Stamford Bridge on Monday evening.

The Blues have been struggling to find their form, with just one win in their last five Premier League games. They will be hoping to turn things around in front of their home fans, who have been vocal in their displeasure with the team's recent performances.

Newcastle, on the other hand, come into this game on the back of a convincing 3-0 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers.

The Magpies will be looking to build on that result and continue their recent good form. They have a chance to win three games in a row for the first time since early October.

With both teams looking to get back on track, this promises to be an exciting encounter.

Chelsea vs Newcastle Prediction

Newcastle are edging closer to European football next year but they need pick up some points in this tricky visit to Stamford Bridge.

Due to their inconsistent nature, the result of this tie is dependent on what sort of Chelsea team decides to turn up.

Following their 2-2 draw to Brentford last time out, the Blues have no choice but to improve from that performance if they want to get anything from this fixture.

Newcastle travel well, having won five of their last six away fixtures, so the Magpies will hardly be troubled by playing against a hostile home crowd.

Predicted Score: Chelsea 1-3 Newcastle
