Chelsea hosts Newcastle United in round 29 of the English Premier League. The match will be played on Sunday, March 13th at Stamford Bridge (London)
Chelsea is in 3rd place in the Premier League standings with 56 points after 27 matches. Thomas Tuchel's team gained 16 victories and eight draws and suffered three losses. Despite a very busy schedule, the Pensioners hold their position in the top three. They are unlikely to intervene in the fight for the title, but they should accomplish the task of gaining a ticket to the 2022/23 Champions League group stage. On March 10, the Blues achieved their fourth consecutive victory in the Premier League, defeating Norwich away (1-3). Chelsea scored two goals in the first half, and Kai Havertz set the final score in the 90th minute.

Newcastle United is ranked 14th with 31 points. Eddie Howe's team has seven victories, ten draws, and ten losses after 27 matches. With each round, the Magpies are getting closer to maintaining a place in the elite English division. They scored points in nine rounds in a row, and four of the last five matches ended in their victories. On March 10, Newcastle players extended their winning streak to three matches, defeating Southampton away (1-2). Armstrong opened the scoring in the 25th minute, but Wood equalized in seven minutes. And Bruno Guimaraes scored the decisive goal in the 52nd minute.
Chelsea has already faced the Magpies in the current season. The match of the 10th round, which was played on October 30, 2021, brought the Blues a landslide 3-0 victory. They scored three times after the 65th minute. Reece James made a brace, and Jorginho scored one more goal from the penalty spot. Newcastle has significantly improved its game since the last game with Chelsea. After the change of owners, a new coach and several experienced players moved to the Magpies’ camp, and this had a beneficial effect on their results. The Black and Whites are unlikely to lose to the Blues with an indecent score for the 2nd time in a row. Newcastle scored at least one goal in the last nine rounds, and its attack upset such strong teams as Manchester United (1-1) and West Ham (1-1). I think the Magpies will manage to score at Stamford Bridge as well.
Prediction for the match: Newcastle to score over 0.5 goals
