Our prediction for the match Newcastle United vs Chelsea
The club from St. James’ Park, after the change of ownership, quickly got Eddie Howe as a new coach. The specialist raised his wards to 3rd place in 2023. Still, then the club, having unsuccessfully returned to the Champions League, retreated to 7th position at the inner arena. The representatives of the capital grandee finished very close, in 6th place. And that was rated so low that Pochettino was fired early.
Maresca, who replaced him, is close to winning the title. Still, this is in the Conference League, where the English club has easily confirmed their status as favourites and reached the final. The priority is the Premier League, but there the competition is not weakening, and the team makes mistakes. It did win in the battle against Liverpool, which has already become champions. Newcastle unexpectedly appeared among the rivals of the giants from Stamford Bridge. The team also managed to take the League Cup. Speaking about the championship, the club, despite the mistakes up to the rout made by Aston Villa, is aiming for 3rd place. As for the struggle with Brighton, however, there was a 1-1 draw.
Isak and the company score 1.89 goals on average per match. They concede 1.29 goals in return. Their rivals from London have got slightly less spectacular matches: 1.77 goals scored and 1.17 goals conceded.
