As Chelsea prepares to face Newcastle United on October 27, 2024, the Blues have a historically favorable record against the Magpies, winning 18 of their last 34 encounters. With their recent 5-1 victory still fresh in memory, Chelsea’s confidence could provide a crucial advantage, especially considering their average home form. 

Meanwhile, Newcastle is struggling to find their form away from St. James’ Park, a trend they will need to address to challenge for points at Stamford Bridge. As they prepare for this vital clash and the upcoming EFL Cup, the pressure is on Newcastle to rediscover their attacking prowess and challenge Chelsea’s dominance on the pitch.

Out of their last 34 meetings, Chelsea has triumphed in 18 matches compared to Newcastle’s 9 wins, making them slight favorites. Although Chelsea’s recent form has been average, with odds of 1.76 for a home win, they could be worth backing, especially with their home advantage.

Bet 2: Both Teams to Score (BTTS) @ 1.42 Odds
