Chelsea and Newcastle can’t dwell on their Champions League disappointments as they meet at Stamford Bridge in a clash which could have implications for their respective European hopes for next season.
Liam Rosenior’s battling Blues twice fought back from a goal down at holders Paris St Germain on Wednesday but ended up losing 5-2 at the Parc des Princes , and their hopes of progressing look dashed.
Newcastle suffered the frustration of a different kind against Barcelona 24 hours previously, with the Spanish side snatching a 1-1 draw at St James’ Park from the final kick of the match. The second legs of those ties take place next week but, but on Saturday, Chelsea will attempt to climb back into the top four of the Premier League , while Newcastle could move into the top 10.
The Magpies have not won at Stamford Bridge since 2012, losing 12 of 14 visits since then by a combined 31-8 scoreline, and we think Chelsea will come out on top again. Our opening Chelsea vs Newcastle prediction is a 4-part BOYLE Sports Bet Builder; Chelsea to win, BTTS, over 10.5 corners and over 3.5 goals, at odds of 6/1.

Form Guide
Chelsea Form Guide
Chelsea enjoyed an impressive start to life under Rosenior , beating every team except Arsenal in his opening nine matches in charge. However, that honeymoon period now seems to be over with Chelsea’s last seven games producing frustrating home draws against Leeds and Burnley , defeats to Arsenal and PSG , while they needed extra time to overcome 10-man Championship side Wrexham in the FA Cup .
In the midst of all that, Chelsea did see off Aston Villa 4-1 away from home, but Unai Emery’s side are losing steam fast, so that victory needs to be seen in context. The Blues now have a run of five home games in their next six fixtures, which will define their season, facing Newcastle , PSG , Port Vale ( FA Cup ) and then both Manchester clubs.
Looking at the Chelsea vs Newcastle odds , we expect them to get off to a winning start this weekend, with Chelsea to win and over 3.5 goals @ 13/5 offering a condensed version of our Bet Builder.
Newcastle Form Guide
Newcastle’s hugely inconsistent form this season can be summed up by their results over the past five games, all at St James’ Park. They saw off Qarabag 3-2 to reach the Champions League last 16, but lost 3-2 to Everton four days later.
A dramatic 2-1 win with 10 men against Man Utd followed, but they were then dumped out of the FA Cup by Manchester City before being cruelly denied a first-leg win over Barcelona , with Lamine Yamal scoring a last-second penalty. Like Chelsea , Eddie Howe’s men now face a crunch period with trips to Stamford Bridge and the Nou Camp coming up before arch-rivals Sunderland arrive on March 22.
Newcastle’s poor record at Chelsea does not bode well for them, but the Magpies are a threat to any team on their day and have not failed to score in their last 13 games. Therefore, 10/3 for them to score in both halves at Chelsea , or 7/5 for over 1.5 away goals looks tempting and that rounds off our Chelsea vs Newcastle betting tips.
