Chelsea have had a mixed run of form lately, with a win, a couple of draws, and some losses in their recent games. Newcastle are also struggling a bit for consistent results, having only won one of their last five matches. When these two teams met earlier in the season, they played out a very entertaining draw with plenty of goals.

Looking at their recent meetings, Newcastle have often had the upper hand, but the most recent game was a close and high-scoring draw. Given both teams' current form and the history of close games between them, this match looks very evenly poised and could easily end in another draw.
