Newcastle vs Chelsea - Do you fancy a draw for he Blues?

Chelsea will be bidding to bounce back from successive Premier League defeats when they travel to an in-form Newcastle United side in Saturday's late start.

A four-game winless run in the league has seen the Blues drop down into seventh spot in the table, but Newcastle are up in third, with the Magpies picking up 27 points from their opening 14 matches.

Newcastle will certainly be expecting to challenge for the biggest prizes in European football in the not too distant future, with their recent takeover making them one of the wealthiest clubs on the planet, but not too many would have predicted how well they would start this season.

Indeed, a record of seven wins, six draws and one defeat has seen Eddie Howe's side collect 27 points from their 14 Premier League games, which has left them in third position in the table.

Chelsea have won each of their last four Premier League games against Newcastle, including a 3-0 victory at St James' Park last October, but it would be fair to say that the Magpies are a completely different side at this moment in time, and it is sure to be a tough examination for the six-time English champions.

In previous seasons, we would be tipping Chelsea to win this, but it is so difficult to back against Newcastle at the moment, while the visitors will not enter this match in the best of form. Both managers would be relatively pleased with a point on Saturday, and we can see the spoils being shared at St James' Park.
