    Newcastle United vs Chelsea – Insight into matchday No 16

    Newcastle United vs Chelsea – Insight into matchday No 16
    11/11/2022 1676

    Newcastle United are the Premier League’s most in-form team ahead of matchday No 16. On Saturday, the Magpies will host Chelsea at St James’ Park.

    Chelsea are out of form and must win on Saturday to keep pace with the rest of the top-four chasing pack. The Blues are seventh in the league and winless in four straight Premier League games. Chelsea’s last two games in the division finished as defeats.

    The pressure is on Chelsea manager Graham Potter to find solutions to the problems. The Blues were previously playing poorly and getting results. Now, Chelsea are playing poorly and losing.

    Newcastle United vs Chelsea: Head-to-Head

    Chelsea won eight of the last 10 games against Newcastle United in all competitions. The Magpies picked up two wins during that 10-game span. Chelsea dominated the head-to-head fixtures but could struggle against a strong Newcastle side this weekend.

    If Newcastle United win, they will be on 30 points. It isn’t out of the question that Newcastle could contend for the Premier League title in the second half of the season.

    Newcastle and Chelsea met 54 times previously in the Premier League. Chelsea hold the advantage with a record of 29W-12D-13L. They outscored Newcastle 83-47.

    The teams met at St James’ Park 27 times in the Premier League era with Chelsea posting a record of 9W-6D-12L.

    Eddie Howe vs Graham Potter

    Eddie Howe and Potter faced off four times previously, with the former getting the upper hand. Howe won two, drew one, and lost one match against Potter in the managers’ four head-to-head meetings.

    Howe played Chelsea on 13 occasions as manager of Bournemouth. He had a losing record of 4W-1D-8L and 1.00 points per match.

    Potter played Newcastle on seven occasions while manager of Brighton. He has a record of 2W-4D-1L and a points-per-match figure of 1.43.
