When Chelsea play against top clubs, they always have surprises and play better than when they play against bottom clubs, that's why this match against Newcastle will definitely be difficult to predict, looking at previous matches against Tottenham and Manchester City is enough to prove that they really play well. when facing a strong club that is at the top of the EPL standings.
Playing at home and as hosts, of course Newcastle also has high self-confidence playing in front of all their fans and winning is their goal against Chelsea to get full points so they can get a better position in the current standings, my prediction is that the result will probably be a draw because Chelsea will play optimally so as not to lose points because they will definitely have difficulty winning as a guest.
Chelsea is able to provide more resistance when facing big clubs, so no one underestimates this team even though Chelsea is classified as inconsistent.
Chelsea should put up the same resistance when facing mediocre clubs or low-level clubs so that their position can be better than last season, Chelsea has lost a lot of full points since the start of the season. I think Pochettino will immediately move to collect points from now on to improve the ranking. Chelsea in the standings.
In the next match it is not yet certain whether Chelsea can beat the home team, Newcastle is in better condition than Chelsea but I think Chelsea will provide resistance like before making it difficult for the home team, maybe as you said it is possible that they will be able to draw in like 2 meetings Lastly both I predict the same result 1:1 or 2:2
