Newcastle Utd take on the visitors Chelsea at “St James' Park” in the matchday 38 of the English Premier League. The game will be played in Newcastle upon Tyne on Sunday, May 13th.
It looks like Newcastle Utd are on their vacations now as the side has lost last four consecutive clashes. Although the calendar was not very difficult the team was beaten by Everton, West Bromwich, Watford and Tottenham plus managed to score only one goal in those four battles. “The Magpies” also has no incentives left for the upcoming fight as well and the fact that they it will host the tackle doesn’t give the advantage. It is also worth mentioning that Newcastle Utd managed to get points only in three out of 11 tackles conducted against top-six clubs.

In their turn, Chelsea have picked up 13 points in five recent games, still saving opportunity to finish the season in top-four and promote to the UEFA Champions League for the next season. To do this the “The Pensioners” need to beat Newcastle Utd in the forthcoming clash and hope for Brighton to upset Liverpool. Of course, these chances are not that huge, but the team must do all it can to reach that. Thus, Chelsea are very well motivated for the upcoming fight, being in good conditions now. The team won last three Premier League battles conducted at away turfs as well as nine out of 13 away clashes against the sides beyond top-six.
Taking into account the mentioned above, the opponents’ motivation and the fact that Chelsea are the main foes of Rafael Benitez who deserved 14 defeats from “The Blues”, it looks like the Spaniard’s 15th loss is about to happen.
Prediction for the match: Chelsea to win.
