One of Sunday's Premier League fixtures sees Newcastle welcome Chelsea to St. James' Park, where the hosts will be hoping to regain the winning thread after tying with Brighton away from home last weekend. The visitors will be looking to extend their current winning run, while they should also be in celebratory mood having qualified for the final of the UEFA Europa Conference League on Thursday evening.
Given that their opponents played on Thursday, the hosts have had long to rest and prepare for this fixture and thus should be feeling confident. Eddie Howe's men will also take plenty of confidence from the fact that they've won each of their last five home games in the EPL, scoring eight goals in their last two, without conceding. In contrast, the visitors have only emerged victorious from one of their last nine road games in the league. Can the hosts take advantage? Don't be surprised if they do, especially as they look to lock down their Champions League place for next season.

Our Newcastle vs Chelsea Prediction
In what is clearly a strong Newcastle team, there are several high performers, but few players have excelled as much as Jacob Murphy, who has had the best season of his career, delivering 19 goals and assists in the Premier League. The winger has been in electric form, that's for sure. He comes into this game off the back of scoring and assisting seven times in his last eight appearances. At home to a Chelsea side that played in the week and may be a little fatigued, he looks a great bet to land a telling blow. Our Newcastle vs Chelsea Pick: Jacob Murphy to Score or Assist.
