There have been several teams that found it difficult to beat Chelsea as of late. But Newcastle has the home advantage and I think they won't lose this game, but at the same time I would say that Chelsea has developed well and they have shown that they should not be written off too early this season. It will be a close game with many chances on both sides I think. But if I should pick a team to win this game, I would still go with Newcastle as they have had some incredible games in their stadium at home.
Chelsea performance is not stable enough because in the 5 matches they have played, Chelsea won 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 defeat, which means they have not shown their consistency so far. I see many people saying that with Chelsea success in holding Manchester City to a draw, they have performed better and that could be true, but if you only measure 1 match to say that they have recovered, of course that is not an impressive achievement. But if they can maintain their best form by winning consecutive matches in the last 5 matches then they have found their true strength.
So next week match will be very crucial for Chelsea because Newcastle United is very strong when playing at home. However, in this match, Chelsea is very favored to win this match because Newcastle united lost many of their core players due to injury. Wilson absence will make them lose their best strength on the front lines. We will see how Newcastle United can play as a strong team without being supported by their core players. Whether Eddie Howe rotation will work when he doesn't have many players to cover the gaps in the team.
