London, England
Saturday, 14 March 2026

Chelsea FC will be aiming to build Premier League momentum when they host Newcastle United at Stamford Bridge on 14 March.
Current Form
Chelsea secured a convincing 4-1 victory away at Aston Villa on March 4 as they snapped their three-match winless run in the English top-flight.
However, Blues are unbeaten in their last five home matches in the Premier League, having recorded three draws and two victories at Stamford Bridge.
Meanwhile, Newcastle recorded a gritty 2-1 home win over Manchester United on March 4 and it was their second win in their last three league matches.
The Magpies have also won one of their last three away matches in the Premier League, while losing the other two games as the visitors.
Team News
Estevao Willian, Jamie Gitten, and Levi Colwill are the three Chelsea players who are out nursing injuries, and Mykhailo Mudryk is sidelined by a doping ban.
Newcastle United, on the other hand, have Bruno Guimaraes, Lewis Miley, Fabian Schar and Emil Krafth on their injury list.
Quotes
"There's no excuses - yeah, we did go down to ten men, we put in a really strong performance and then we're playing again a few days later," Newcastle star Kieran Trippier said when reflecting on their recent matches against Man United and Manchester City in the FA Cup.
"But I'm not using that as an excuse, because I've been in this position, personally, throughout my whole career, and I'm sure this is where this club wants to be. They want to be playing every three days, they want to be playing in the Champions League, going far in every cup.
"So there's no excuse; as a player, as a club, you want to be playing every single competition. We just have to forget about this game now, because we've got another massive game against Barcelona."
Head-To-Head
Chelsea and Newcastle drew 2-2 in their last Premier League meeting, which was at St James' Park in December 2025.
Therefore, the Magpies are undefeated in their last two league games against the Blues, having recorded one draw and one win.
