Chelsea has recently show that they have improved a little in their game style and are most likely good to face almost any team they may be encountering in the premier league, especially the draw against one of the toughest team this season must have taken their confidence high up enough.
Not just the draw against the strongest side in the league but also a win against the most in-form team in the league Tottenham Hotspur. This two matches have shown how well Chelsea have improved, they have outplayed all the big teams in the league and they deserved to win against them all. I think Chelsea are now finally blending together and understanding one another so well so in a matter of time they will be among the top teams in the league.
They seem to show more strength playing against bigger teams than they will do against smaller team, they have succeeded in getting some points from every big team they meet this season, with Tottenham they got three points and with Manchester city they got one so with Newcastle it's very possible they will get a point because they have got their morale high up and their confidence is really good .
Their performance against bigger opponents have been very impressive but they still seem to find it challenging to control games against smaller teams which is their major setback so far this season else they would also be in the top 4 race with other but until they finally take control of smaller matches they will still find it difficult to challenge for any major achievement this season. Newcastle is also a strong team and i believe they will not take this match likely they would try to bring the same performance and energy they used against Manchester City.
