Newcastle United<\/a> host Chelsea<\/a> at St James’ Park on Sunday 11th May at 12pm in what will be a big game for the Premier League<\/a> top five.

Newcastle to win (11\/10 with Midnite<\/a>)<\/h3>\n

How both teams go into Newcastle vs Chelsea<\/h2>\n

The Premier League has five spots for qualification to next season’s Champions League<\/a>, which will provide drama in the final weeks of the campaign. Newcastle have put themselves in a good position with four games left to play, but it’s still very open. The Magpies enjoyed a run of six wins from seven to climb into third, two points clear of sixth-placed Nottingham Forest<\/a> — who do have a game in hand at the time of writing. <\/p>\n

Chelsea are unbeaten in five in the league, but they’ve dropped points in two of those games, including against now-relegated Ipswich Town<\/a>. It’s a run that has seen the Blues drop to fifth and not fancied to qualify for the Champions League. Chelsea have a tough final run-in against the teams around them, facing Nottingham Forest on the final day of the campaign. They’ll need to win at St James’ Park to keep their hopes alive.<\/p>\n

Chelsea team news<\/h3>\n
