Chelsea have scored 18 times in their last six home league games with Newcastle who have only scored twice in reply.
The Blues have failed to score in their last two home league games, but I just can’t see United keeping the hosts at arm’s length.
The Magpies continue to struggle for goals – just four in their last 8 league games.
And I expect the hosts to win a low-scoring affair. Chelsea to win 2-0 against Newcastle
