Newcastle vs Chelsea Bet Builder Tips: 15/2 Betting Tip for the Saturday 5.30pm Kick-off
Newcastle vs Chelsea bet builder tips and predictions for the first of two Saturday evening fixtures in the Premier League. The last game before the World Cup is a big one for these two sides, who will have eyes on a top 4 finish this season.
The odds for our bet builder are 15/2 and the selections include a both teams to score bet and a Chelsea player to be booked.
Newcastle will not want the break to come after having a fantastic start to the season which has seen them go to third in the Premier League after a run of nine games unbeaten and four wins in a row going into this weekend’s game.
Chelsea lost 1-0 to Arsenal in the league last weekend and then 2-0 to Man City in the Carabao Cup in midweek so Graham Potter will want to get three points before we get stuck into some World Cup betting offers ahead of the tournament next weekend.
Newcastle vs Chelsea Bet Builder Tips
- Newcastle or draw
- Both teams to score
- Mateo Kovacic to be booked
Newcastle or draw
Newcastle have had a fantastic start to their Premier League campaign this time round under Eddie Howe. The Magpies are sitting third in the table and have won seven, drawn six and lost just one of their opening 14 matches, scoring 28 goals in the process. I expect them to maintain their good form against Chelsea this weekend. The Blues haven’t won a Premier League fixture since mid October, losing their last two and drawing the two before that. I expect Newcastle to win, however they have drawn six games this season, so a draw in this wouldn’t be surprising.
Both teams to score
I expect this one to be a frantic encounter with both teams going at it from the very first whistle. Both teams know exactly where the goal is, with Newcastle scoring 28 league goals this season and Chelsea with significantly less, but a respectable 17. Of the Blues 13 Premier League fixtures, both teams have scored in eight. For Newcastle, both teams have scored in eight of their 14 league matches. I think this will be an exciting one and this selection will land long before the end of the match.
Mateo Kovacic to be booked
Should he start, Mateo Kovacic will be in for a tough shift this weekend against a good Newcastle midfield with the likes of Bruno Guimaraes at the heart of it. Kovacic has started four and came on as a substitute six times in the league this season, however he started last time out against Manchester City in the EFL Cup. He has picked up two Premier League bookings this season and averages 0.79 fouls per game. I expect him to feature at least as a substitute and won’t be surprised to see him enter the referee’s book.
