  • Chelsea is a -0.5-goal favorite against Newcastle United.
  • Magpies obliterated Chelsea 4-1 in the previous head-to-head meeting.
  • Bet into this 70% winning system for Mondayโ€™s match.

Before Monday Night Football kicks off from Stamford Bridge in London, Iโ€™m here to offer a Chelsea vs. Newcastle United prediction.ย 

Hosts Chelsea failed to win as road favorites last weekend at Brentford, dropping two points in a 2-2 draw.ย 

Newcastle United produced a solid 3-0 home win over Wolves, their third win in their last six games.ย 

Hereโ€™s a look at the EPL odds and my best bet for Mondayโ€™s match.ย

EPL Prediction – Chelsea vs. Newcastle United

Newcastle United Spread (+0.5, -115)

Manager Eddie Howeโ€™s side is finally getting healthy, but the market hasnโ€™t quite caught up to them.ย 

Over their last five matches, Newcastle have earned at least a point four times. Their only loss? At title contenders Arsenal.ย 

Although itโ€™s nerve-wracking betting on a team with the fifth-worst road expected goal differential in the Premier League, theyโ€™ve earned outright wins in two of their last three road fixtures.ย 

Included in that sample is a deserved 3-1 win at Aston Villa, a side superior to Chelsea in terms of their home underlying metrics.ย 

Plus, Newcastle United match a historically profitable betting system that wins at a 70% clip.ย 

Essentially, bettors want to attack road underdogs off a big win when theyโ€™re facing a team they beat in the last meeting.ย 

Since the 2017-18 season, road dogs off a win by two or more goals that won the previous head-to-head meeting are 26-11-2 ATS, assuming their opponent failed to win their previous game.ย 

This season, those teams are 6-1 ATS. Since last season? 12-1 ATS.

Even when the spread is +0.5 or shorter, teams are 22-10-2 ATS in such spots.ย 

Given Chelsea drew with Brentford last weekend โ€“ a team I rate behind Newcastle United โ€“ itโ€™s reasonable to expect theyโ€™ll struggle in this spot.ย 

Plus, Chelsea have faced five teams this season with a win percentage higher than 35% off a non-win.ย 

In those games, theyโ€™ve captured a straight up victory only once.ย 

As a result, bettors should buy high on Newcastle and back them to do no worse than a result. Bet to -125.ย
