The Magpies recently responded emphatically from the deflating derby setback to Sunderland, salvaging a pulsating 2-1 triumph over Fulham to march into the EFL Cup semi-finals during the week's midpoint, via Lewis Miley's injury-time decisive intervention.
The Geordie faithful will be determined to capitalise on that triumph with three crucial points against the Blues, and a homecoming to home will certainly boost their belief. After all: they have claimed five, drawn one and lost just two of their eight home EPL encounters, while they have also won all of their last four home meetings with Chelsea.
While Chelsea stand impressive on the road this term, amassing the joint-second best points tally in hostile territory in the league (fourteen from eight excursions), the Blues have been inconsistent in recent weeks. With an arduous trip to St James' Park, we are backing the hosts to emerge victorious.

The striking sensation's remarkable goalscoring legacy since joining Manchester City has maintained its trajectory this season, with the striker already netting 23 goals in 22 appearances across all competitions, with scoring three in his last two encounters.
Haaland has been particularly prolific against West Ham for the Citizens, registering nine goals in six appearances against the Hammers. Given such stunning form, we are tipping the phenomenal forward to perpetuate his devastating record with yet another goal.

Hugo Ekitike enjoyed a sensational start to life at Liverpool before experiencing a frustrating period throughout October and November, but the French forward has reclaimed goalscoring ways in December.
A brace against Leeds United was complemented with yet another brace in Liverpool's commanding 2-0 win over Brighton & Hove Albion, blessing the striker with four goals in his last two English Premier League appearances.
As Liverpool are poised to take on a Tottenham Hotspur side that have been notably underwhelming at home—claiming just eight points from eight home league games, while they have also conceded a significant 21 strikes in just 16 EPL encounters—we are expecting the Reds to have abundant attacking success.
Given the goalscoring form of Ekitike, we are backing the striker to deliver once more in this one.

Unai Emery's side have lost merely one of their last 32 matches at Villa Park across all competitions, while they have also claimed all of their last nine games in all competitions, endowing them with plenty of confidence as they steel themselves to face an remarkably erratic Manchester United team.
While the Red Devils have lost just one of their last 10 fixtures, Ruben Amorim's side have secured only two of their last seven EPL matches, and they are coming into this one off the back of a wild 4-4 draw with Bournemouth—highlighting their defensive frailties.
While Manchester United are likely to give Aston Villa a robust test, particularly in defence as the Red Devils possess the joint-second best attack in the league with 30 goals accumulated, we expect Aston Villa will hold firm and claim the victory.
