Newcastle United are riding a strong wave of form at just the right time. They’ve won five straight home league games and scored 18 goals in that stretch. With 11 wins at St. James’ Park this season and the third-best attack in the league, they’re proving to be a formidable force on home turf.
The Magpies have already secured European football through their Carabao Cup triumph but want to finish in the top four to book a Champions League spot. This is their final home game before visiting Arsenal and then hosting Everton, so they’ll be keen to take maximum points here.
Betting On Chelsea
- 1XBet Spread: Under 3.5
- 1XBet Over/Under: 3.18
- 1XBet Moneyline: 0
Chelsea may be in the Conference League final, but their form away from home remains inconsistent. The Blues have won just seven of their road games this season, losing six, and have dropped crucial points in recent matches.
They’ve won their last three league fixtures, including a big 3-1 win over Liverpool, but face two tough road games in their final three matches. They lost to Newcastle in the Carabao Cup earlier this season and haven’t won at St. James’ Park in their last three attempts.
MatchPlug Prediction For Newcastle United VS Chelsea
Newcastle are the more consistent team and hold home advantage in a crucial fixture.
Chelsea’s away form is shaky, and Newcastle’s strong home scoring record could be the difference here.
