Newcastle vs. Chelsea Preview, Betting Tips, & Odds | October 30, 2024
The Magpies Host the Blues in a Crucial Premier League Clash
High-Flying Newcastle Aim to Continue Impressive Run
Newcastle United will welcome Chelsea to St. James' Park on October 30, 2024, for a highly anticipated Premier League clash. The Magpies have enjoyed a strong start to the season, sitting in the top four of the table, while Chelsea has struggled to find consistency under new manager Graham Potter.Newcastle's success under Eddie Howe has been built on a solid defensive foundation and a potent attack led by Miguel Almirón and Callum Wilson. The Magpies have conceded just three goals in their last five league games, keeping clean sheets against Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur.
Chelsea, on the other hand, has endured a mixed start to the campaign. Despite spending heavily in the summer transfer window, the Blues have struggled to find their rhythm under Potter. Injuries have also taken their toll, with key players like Reece James, N'Golo Kanté, and Wesley Fofana all sidelined.
Chelsea Seeking Redemption After Poor Start
Chelsea will be desperate to get back to winning ways after a disappointing 1-0 defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion in their last Premier League outing. Potter's side was lackluster in attack and vulnerable in defense, conceding a soft goal to Leandro Trossard.The Blues will need to improve significantly if they want to get a result at St. James' Park. Newcastle have lost just one home game in the Premier League this season, and they will be confident of extending that record against a struggling Chelsea side.
