Newcastle take on Chelsea in the big clash of the 3pm kick offs. Eddie Howe’s injury-stricken side hope to close the gap on the top four as they kick off a busy schedule that involves Champions League action during the week.

A 2-0 loss to Bournemouth last time out shocked the system but Howe will be hoping to respond positively and draw on the crowd at St. James’ Park to upset the Blues this afternoon.

For their part, Chelsea are starting to gel under Mauricio Pochettino. That was evident in their 4-4 draw against Man City just before the international break. The London side are starting to click in front of goal with Cole Palmer, Nicolas Jackson and Raheem Sterling providing the threat up top.

Follow the latest action from the Premier League below.

    Joelinton wins the ball back on the halfway line, and the space opens up in front of him as he carries it forward. He decides to try his luck from a long way out, but his wild effort sails high into the stands.

    OFF THE BAR! Trippier steps up to take the free-kick and whips a pacy shot over the wall. Sanchez is scrambling to the near top corner but can’t get a touch as it smashes off the crossbar.

    15:43

    Ugochukwu is scrambling to stop Gordon’s run, and clips his heels to stop him. He’s the first Chelsea player into the book.

    The momentum has just swung back in Chelsea’s favour, with the Blues looking to take the lead before the break. Sterling gets the better of Trippier down the right once more but overhits the square cross to Fernandez.

    Guimaraes gets across to the right to try and make something happen, and he floats a good cross into the far post. None of his team-mates gamble though, with James comfortably clearing his lines.

    15:38

    CHANCE! Newcastle get caught playing out from the back as Pope gifts it straight to Gallagher. He chests it down before dragging it away from Livramento. The shot lets him down though as he scuffs it wide of the near post. Relief for Newcastle!

    15:37

    Again, Chelsea look to their left side to create something, and Palmer links up with Sterling before continuing the run. The return pass into the youngster is heavy though, and he can’t keep it in play.

    15:36

    Newcastle are keeping Chelsea penned deep in their own half when they do have possession, but they can’t get it into the final third at the moment. Almiron is hugging the sideline and Cucurella’s tight marking is making it difficult to cross.

    Newcastle United vs Chelsea

    15:34

    GREAT SAVE! Chelsea work it wonderfully upfield from a goal-kick and it’s swept out to James in space on the right. He plays a one-two with Palmer before teeing up Fernandez, but his first-time shot is tipped wide by Pope.

    15:32

    Almiron is starting to impose himself down the right, and he drives at Cucurella before dropping a shoulder to curl a cross into the far post. Isak is caught on his heels though and can’t reach it.

    Newcastle United vs Chelsea

    15:30

    It’s a brilliant tackle from Schar to stop Palmer in his tracks, and Newcastle are back on the attack. Almiron clips in a cross which is swiped at by Badiashile, and luckily for him, Joelinton can’t control the ball when it bounces off him.

    15:28

    WHAT A CHANCE! Silva trips over the ball, giving away a needless corner to Newcastle. It’s a superb cross from Trippier as it’s whipped to Joelinton, who has a free header at the far post. He gets his angles all wrong though, thumping his header wide.

    15:27

    Chelsea want to try this game on its head as quickly as they can here as Sterling pushes forward down the left once more. He cuts inside before curling his effort on goal, but it’s a comfortable save for Pope down the middle.

    15:21

    It’s better from Chelsea here as they enjoy a patient spell of possession. It’s all in front of Newcastle, but after a frantic couple of minutes, the Blues are happy to just try and find their rhythm.

    15:18

    Chelsea just can’t get out at the moment as Trippier gets a second attempt to swing it in. Cucurella only clears as far as Miley but recovers quickly to step in front of Miley’s shot from just inside the box.

    Newcastle United vs Chelsea

    15:17

    Newcastle quickly win it back from the restart and win a free-kick that’s lifted in by Trippier. It’s only half-cleared once more, with Almiron picking Jackson’s pocket before seeing his tame cross headed away.

    Almiron gets the better of Cucurella with the overlapping run, but when he’s closed down by Badiashile, he knocks it back to Trippier, who whips it in first time. Gordon and Isak are both in the box, but Silva meets it in the middle.

    Newcastle United vs Chelsea

    15:10

    CHANCE! All of Chelsea’s attacking play so far has come from their left, and Gallagher starts his run on the halfway line, surging into the box. Trippier makes the angle tight, and the midfielder fizzes a low shot across goal and wide.

    15:09

    Cucurella cuts out another throughball and drives into the space in midfield. He touches it into Gallagher before continuing his run to the far post, but Schar gets in front of him to intercept the return pass.

    Newcastle United vs Chelsea

    15:06

    Newcastle’s attack fizzles out and Cucurella slides it forward, setting Jackson on the counter. He patiently works it through the middle before he’s closed down, and Lascelles steps in to cut out the layoff to Sterling.

    Newcastle United vs Chelsea

    15:04

    Newcastle win a free-kick just inside their own half, but Trippier hangs a good cross to the edge of the box for his team-mates to attack. There’s a bit of a scramble, and Badiashile eventually hooks it away.

    As for Chelsea, they’ve lost just one of their last eight matches in all competitions (W5 D2) and were involved in two quite incredible games in the week before the international break, beating nine-man Tottenham 4-1 before coming from behind to snatch a late point in a 4-4 draw with Manchester City. The Blues have actually won their last three matches on the road in the Premier League, but only against Liverpool and Arsenal (15 each) have they lost more away games in the competition than against Newcastle (13).

    Newcastle United vs Chelsea

    14:38

    The international break seemed to come at the right time for Newcastle, whose injury-hit squad was starting to slip after another bright start to their season. They lost consecutive games doing into the break, losing 2-0 to Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League before being seen off by Bournemouth by the same scoreline. Before that defeat to the Cherries, Eddie Howe’s side were unbeaten in seven Premier League outings (W5 D2), and they come into today in great home form, having won their last four at St. James’ Park without conceding a single goal.
