Newcastle United vs Chelsea

Home - Newcastle United
Last away matches - D-L-W-W-W-D

After winning three of their last five matches, Newcastle are pleased with cracking the top half of the table (9th place; 20 points), but they know that a win at home against the frontrunners would catapult them above Liverpool and Swansea City. In their most recent match, Newcastle drew with Burnley, who are dragging along at the bottom of the table at 18th place. This is a very fragile point in the Premiere League season because, at this point, teams are beginning to find out whether or not they will fall off or pull away from the pack. Newcastle needs to earn points at home to stay in the top half of the table and Chelsea are about to find out just how long they can hold their unbeaten streak.

Away - Chelsea
Last away matches - D-W-W-D-W-D

The league leaders will look to keep a steady pace in their first meeting with Newcastle in this year’s EPL campaign. With Didier Drogba, Eden Hazard, Loic Remy, and Diego Costa all healthy, Chelsea are an extremely intimidating attacking side. They displayed this in their most recent match against Tottenham, which concluded in a 3-0 bashing. Though Newcastle is one spot ahead of the Hotspurs on the table, the teams are even on points. This could be a strong indicator of how Saturday’s match will play out because Chelsea are attacking viciously and they will certainly not give up points against low ranking teams

Asian Handicap

Hull City vs W.B.A

Home - Hull City
Last away matches - D-L-L-D-D-L

Hull have suffered a big blow with the news that Senegal international Mohamed Diame could be out for up to six weeks with tendinitis in his knee, joining long-term absentee Robert Snodgrass and the suspended Gaston Ramirez on the sidelines.Bruce will hope club-record signing Abel Hernandez will return after the Uruguayan missed Hull's last two games due to the birth of his first child.

Away - W.B.A
Last away matches - L-W-L-L-W-L

West Brom sit just a point above Hull in 16th after they were beaten 2-1 at home by West Ham in result that marked their fourth consecutive defeat - though Craig Dawson's 10th-minute goal ensured they scored for the first time in that run.The visitors' unwanted streak has ramped up the pressure on head coach Alan Irvine, who is now the bookmakers' favourite to be the next boss to leave his post.That dip in form has tied in with that of top scorer Saido Berahino. The 21-year-old has eight goals to his name this term but has not netted since the 2-2 draw with Crystal Palace back in October, leaving West Brom with no potent threat up front. Chris Brunt is unavailable with a hamstring injury and Claudio Yacob is suspended but midfielder James Morrison and defender Sebastien Pocognoli have both returned to training.

Liverpool vs Sunderland

Home - Liverpool
Last away matches - W-D-L-L-L-W

The London club will Nathan Ake with a hamstring injury, while Diego Costa’s situation is 50-50, the striker having an issue with his thigh. Some will argue this should be Steven Gerrard, particularly Steven Gerrard himself. Others will suggest Simon Mignolet’s ability to lose games on his own right now could single him out. But we’re suggesting that what Liverpool need at this moment in time, besides Luis Suarez, is the quiet efficiency of the little Brazilian.From cast-off in the summer to to key man right now, of the 10 games Leiva has appeared in this season, Liverpool have won seven and lost just twice, and one of those was against Real Madrid. In the 11 games he hasn’t featured in, they’ve won just twice and lost seven.

Away - Sunderland
Last away matches - D-W-L-D-L-W

The home side will miss winger Emmanuele Giaccherini with a knee injurury and left-back (and former Chelsea prospect) Patrick van Aanholt is out for upto three months with a shoulder injury. Sunderland come into the match on the back of a 0-0 draw with Leicester. But all is not good as they seem to have a problem scoring—the Black Cats have found the back of the net in only three of their last eight matches in the league, and their net goal tally is just one more than Diego Costa.

Asian Handicap
Home - (-1.00)
Away - (+1.00)
Pick - Sunderland (+1.00)
Odds - 2.13
Stakes - 9/10
