Chelsea face Newcastle on Monday evening in a match many find difficult to predict based on both club’s performances this season.
Their meeting at Stamford Bridge last season ended in a 1-1 draw, while the Magpies secured a 4-1 win at home in November this season.
Sutton’s prediction for the match is a 2-1 win to Chelsea . You will get odds around 8.20 on that betting tips if you are into Premier League betting.
“How can anyone accurately predict Chelsea versus Newcastle, given the inconsistency we have seen from both teams recently?” BBC Sport football expert Chris Sutton said.
“Which Chelsea team will turn up, and which Newcastle side will we see? The Magpies bounced back from a bad defeat at Arsenal by beating Wolves, but they have not won back-to-back league games since the start of December.
“I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve backed Chelsea at home, and been wrong, but surely they are going to win again at Stamford Bridge before the end of the season?”
