Premier League preview: Chelsea vs Newcastle, Arsenal vs Liverpool
Chelsea Expected to Score against Newcastle
A strongly backed bet for the upcoming Chelsea vs. Newcastle United clash is Chelsea to score over 1.5 goals, with odds at 1/2.
Backed by 50% of punters, this confidence stems from Chelsea’s impressive home record—scoring over 1.5 goals in 13 of their last 17 home matches. With a strong attacking setup and plenty of firepower, expect Chelsea to push forward in search of goals.
Jackson to Test Newcastle’s Defense
One player to keep an eye on is Nicolas Jackson, who is expected to be a key threat for Chelsea. With 11/25 odds for Jackson to register at least one shot on target, 20% of punters are backing the forward to trouble Newcastle’s defense.
Jackson’s ability to get into dangerous areas could play a crucial role in breaking down Newcastle’s backline.
Newcastle Looking to Control the Game
Despite Chelsea’s goal-scoring ability, Newcastle’s -2.0 handicap at 4/11 indicates the belief that they will not be completely dominated.
Newcastle have shown resilience in defense this season, and they will aim to frustrate Chelsea’s attack by keeping it tight and disciplined, a strategy that has worked for them in the past.
