Saturday's English Premier League action kicks off at St. James' Park, where the hosts will be looking to secure a second win in three days following that dramatic EFL Cup win over Fulham on Wednesday. The Magpies needed to bouonce back after losing against their bitter rivals at the weekend, which is exactly what Eddie Howe's men did, booking their place in the EFL Cup semis for the second year on the spin. Filled with confidence after that effort, the Geordie fans will likely fancy their team to upset a Chelsea team that is far from consistent.
The visitors also reached the EFL Cup semis during the week, beating League One team Cardiff, though Enzo Maresca's men couldn't keep a clean sheet on that occasion, while they looked quite dodgy at the back against Everton last weekend, despite winning by two goals to zero. The Blues have also won just one of their last four away games in all competitions.

Our Newcastle vs Chelsea Prediction
Quite simply, Anthony Gordon is too generously priced to notch against a Chelsea side that certainly didn't keep it tight at the back against Everton last weekend. Moreover, Gordon thrives in counter-offensive games such as this, where the Magpies will absolutely be able to hit on the break.
Gordon has only scored two EPL goals this season, but he's averaging a rather healthy 0.44 xG per 90 minutes, while he should be feeling confident too, following three goals in his last five appearances in all competitions. Frankly, given the level of threat that he offers, not to mention his numbers, odds of +350 are just too generous.
Our Newcastle vs Chelsea Pick: Anthony Gordon to Score.
