Chelsea hosts Newcastle United in round 24 of the English Premier League. The match will be played on Monday, February 15th at Stamford Bridge (London)
Frank Lampard never managed to cope with playing difficulties in Chelsea and was rightly fired by the rather patient Roman Abramovich. His successor Tomas Tuchel still has a solid segment of the tournament distance to improve the situation. Chelsea still can return to the top three of the Premier League standings and even impose a fight for the champion’s title. After three victories in a row, the Blues came close to the Champions League zone. Tuchel has one of the strongest rosters in the English league, with a large number of young talents. Promising players are not only ready to become the regulars but are also able to significantly improve their playing skills in the near future. Such footballers as Mount, Jorginho, Werner, Azpilicueta, and Chilwell are the leaders of modern Chelsea.

Dreams of Newcastle’s fans about rich owners and subsequent financial privileges are still elusive. The club continues to be scrimpy in the transfer market and has serious fears of becoming an outsider in the Premier League. Currently, Steve Bruce's men occupy a place in the lower part of the standings, outranking the relegation zone by 10 points. The defensive line remains problematic - 38 goals conceded in 23 matches. However, Newcastle has been doing well in the transfer market this season. The bosses signed contracts with Wilson, Lewis, Hendrick, and Fraser and loaned Willock. Almiron, Saint-Maximin, and Shelvey are in good shape. There are too many questions to the defenders of the team, who fail the season.
Chelsea urgently needs to continue its winning streak, which is already three matches in a row. Newcastle is in disgusting shape and makes a lot of mistakes in defensive actions. The hosts of the arena have all the chances to gain three points and significantly improve the difference between goals scored and conceded.
Prediction for the match: Chelsea to win with -1.5 handicap
