Pundits express doubts on Chelsea's prospects of ending Newcastle United's unbeaten run

Newcastle United will be looking to claim another scalp when Chelsea visit St James' Park on Saturday. The Magpies have already defeated Tottenham Hotspur, and have also registered draws against Mancheter United and reigning champions Manchester City.

They've lost just one of their last 17 home league games and have gone nine games without defeat in the Premier League. Newcastle sit third in the English top-flight and boast a six-point lead over Chelsea, who head to Tyneside in seventh.

Chelsea will aim to avoid a third straight league defeat for the first time in seven years and arrest their poor run of form under Graham Potter.
