Newcastle United vs Chelsea Betting Tips
Safe Bets
Newcastle’s attack has been poor this season, while Chelsea have conceded only three goals in the league which is the lowest in Europe. Hence betting on Chelsea to win to nil at odds of 2.20 (bet365} is one of the best bets of the match.
With Lukaku and Werner injured, Havertz is the only option Tuchel has as a striker and he has scored two goals in his last three games. Hence betting on him to have over two shots on target at odds of 1.72 {betway} is a safe bet.
Callum Wilson has been Newcastle’s best player this season and has four goals in five games in the league. He is expected to start as the striker for Newcastle and we suggest betting on him to have over two shots on target at odds of 3.00 (betway).
Quick Rich
Chelsea should get an easy win against an out of form Newcastle side who haven’t won a single game in the league this season. Therefore betting on Chelsea to win 2-0, 3-0 or 4-0 at odds of 3.10 {betway} gives high returns at minimal risk.
Ben Chilwell has been Chelsea’s best player over the last few games and has four goals in five appearances, therefore betting on him to score at odds of 7.00 (bet365 is a good bet.
