Chelsea vs. Newcastle – Result prediction (19.10.2019)

Preview and Teams Comparison.

Chelsea’s confidence will be high after a run of four consecutive victories in all competitions. The ‘Blues’ scored a combined total of 15 goals in those wins, but a return of only one clean sheet in all competitions remains a burning issue for Frank Lampard’s men. Generally speaking, goals appear likely when Chelsea are involved, considering that their Premier League (PL) contests have averaged 4.00 goals per-match. Six out of their eight league matches played so far have featured over 2.5 goals, and five of those yielded over 3.5 goals.

Newcastle are on their own high after defeating Manchester United 1-0, but they have still won just six of their last 31 PL away matches (W6, D10, L15). Scoring early is their key to success on the road, as Newcastle have been leading at half-time in six of their last eight PL away victories. Also worthy of consideration is the fact that Newcastle have only scored more than one goal in three of their previous 15 PL matches. As ever, they will aim to be tight at the back, considering that eight of their last 11 PL wins have been accompanied by a clean sheet.
