Newcastle’s remarkable early-season form continued last weekend with a 1-4 demolition of Southampton. The performance was far from Newcastle's best, and yet they still came away with the three points. Tottenham’s defeat to Liverpool meant that Newcastle moved up to 3rd in the Premier League table with this win, and are now guaranteed to enter the World Cup 2022 break in a Champions League spot. A remarkable 12-month turnaround considering a year ago the club was winless and in the relegation zone. 

Meanwhile, things have been far less rosy for Chelsea in recent weeks. New boss Graham Potter is enduring a sticky patch of form with the Blues suffering back-to-back EPL defeats, and are winless in their last four games. At least progression into the knockout rounds of the Champions League has brightened the mood, but Chelsea need to start picking up points quickly to ensure they qualify for the tournament next season. 

St James’ Park has become a fortress for Newcastle, and the Magpies are undefeated  at home this season. They also boast statistically the best defense in the league. That's not good news for a Chelsea side that have somewhat struggled for goals. The Blues have the second-lowest tally in the Premier League top 10, only behind Crystal Palace.   

Newcastle will be looking to extend their winning streak to five games, and their unbeaten streak to 10 games. But Chelsea can be comforted by their most recent trip to SJP, a convincing 3-0 win. The Newcastle vs Chelsea live stream looks posed to be a thrilling encounter that even the neutrals won’t want to miss. 

The lineups are as follows:

Newcastle United (Formation 4-3-3): 22 Pope, 2 Trippier, 5 Schär, 4 Botman, 33 Burn, 36 S Longstaff, 39 Bruno Guimarães, 28 Willock, 24 Almirón, 20 Wood, 7 Joelinton

Chelsea (Formation 3-4-2-1): 16 Mendy, 28 Azpilicueta, 26 Koulibaly, 14 Chalobah, 12 Loftus-Cheek, 8 Kovacic, 5 Jorginho, 67 Hall, 23 Gallagher, 19 Mount, 18 Broja
