A massive match at the Sports Direct Arena on Saturday, as we look at Newcastle v Chelsea betting in the Premier League. It will be a highly emotional day with tributes to the departed Gary Speed rolling in, but getting down to business there are a big three points at stake. The Magpies, after a superb unbeaten run to the start of the season, suffered their first taste of defeat on a trip to Manchester City, but recovered with a point at Old Trafford last weekend. While they have been good in defence, up front, they have the scoring prowess of Demba Ba who has fired in nine league goals this season. The Magpies striker is on a great run of form, and will be hungry to get at the leaky Chelsea defence. Chelsea boss Andre Villas Boas is a man under pressure after a string of defeats has really seen Chelsea’s form dip after a solid start to the season. Chelsea are lacking confidence, but the young Portuguese manager needs to start turning things around quickly. It will be a difficult trip to the North East for them on Saturday with all the emotions going on up there, but it may be a good escape for them away from the extra pressures of playing at Stamford Bridge. This is fourth v fifth in the Premier League, with the Magpies in ascendancy over the Londoners by one point. So a big match ahead on Saturday, and Newcastle will be looking to that man Demba Ba to fire them to success on an emotional day.
