Newcastle vs Chelsea: Predicted XI

You could say that Chelsea have found their form after their horrid start to the 2015/2016 season. Wednesday’s 4-1 thrashing of Walsall meant that The Blues had won three matches in a row; albeit those three matches were in three different competitions.

After starting out their latest UEFA Champions League campaign with a win, Chelsea went on to beat Arsenal by a score of two goals to nil at Stamford Bridge in what was a controversial ninety minutes. Chelsea followed that up with the win against Walsall that I mentioned before.

Now, Jose Mourinho’s men shift their focus back on the Premier League, where they take on Newcastle United at St. James Park tomorrow evening. Newcastle away has been a tricky fixture for Chelsea in recent seasons, but I think we can do the business on Saturday.

Here’s who I think Mourinho will select for the match…

matchday.
