Newcastle v Chelsea Betting Tips and Predictions

Newcastle vs Chelsea predictions and football betting tips for the Premier League match on Saturday 6th December. Newcastle will be looking to become the first team to beat Chelsea this season when the two sides meet at St James’ Park on Saturday.

A run of six consecutive wins in all competitions by the Magpies ended last weekend with a 1-0 away defeat at West Ham, followed by a 1-1 draw with Burnley on Tuesday. After a poor start to the season, Newcastle now sit 10th in the table and the pressure it would appear is off Alan Pardew for the time being. A surprise win over Chelsea would do the Newcastle manager’s job security no harm, although seems unlikely given the Magpies ever growing injury list.

Tim Krul, Gabriel Obertan and Siem de Jong are key absentees, although Captain Fabricio Colo ccini returns from injury. Alan Pardew will also be able to recall Moussa Sissoko and Jack Colback after the pair missed the draw at Turf Moor through suspension.

Similarly, Diego Costa missed Chelsea’s 3-0 midweek win against Tottenham through suspension and returns to the side. Chelsea’s goalless draw with Sunderland last week was the first time the Blues have failed to score this season. There’s plenty of attacking firepower in the side to cause Newcastle damage, but a possibility the Magpies may respond with at least one goal of their own.

Newcastle have won the last two fixtures between the sides at St James’ Park, although Chelsea won 3-0 the last time the teams played in February at Stamford Bridge. Eden Hazard scored a hat-trick that day and has scored four goals in three games against Newcastle.

Rennes vs Montpellier betting tips by Isaiah

Rennes celebrated their fourth consecutive victory just a couple of days ago against Nice on the road, taking a fairly deserved 2:1 three pointer. Not many offensive phases were seen on the field, but the visiting players did look like much more concrete and determined on the field.

N’tep has scored the opening goal in 12th minute, while Konradsen added second in 49th minute. Hosts were only able to reduce near the end of the game in 83rd via Cvitanich, but without threatening further more. In last nine matches Rennes has seven victories and two draws, as their great run saw the team climbing up to fifth position, just two points away from third placed Lyon. Midfielder Gelson Fernandes (15/0) comes back from suspension, but suffered a knock in training session and is doubtful for tonight’s game. Hosts rested few players during midweek, so Pedro Henrique, Ola Toivonen and Abdoulaye Doucoure will be well-rested for this match. Offensive midfielder Kamil Grosicki (9/0) is already counted as long term absentee.

Having in mind their quality, style of football and overall club’s potential, it seems that the mid table table for Montpellier will be everything they can achieve this season. Team comes from a home loss against St Etienne few days with a 0:2 result.

It was a match where the hosts showed very little, or better to say, almost no positive things, not being able to attack properly even once they had a man more when Diomande got excluded in 78th minute. Anyhow, as said, their objective goal is mid table team and it seems that they will end up their without much problems, but also without really being competitive against any stronger side, especially away from home where they have only one victory out of eight matches and only one goal scored. Midfielder Jean Deza (2/0) is suspended for tonight’s game, while first choice goalkeeper Geoffrey Jourdren (14/0) remains injured.

Rennes have kept a clean sheet in their last 4 home matches in Ligue 1. Rennes have won their last 4 home matches in Ligue 1. Rennes have scored at least 2 goals in their last 3 home matches against Montpellier. Rennes plays close to perfectly at the moment, especially at home. They are surely aiming for a victory here and very poor travelers from Montpellier have slim chances to stay undefeated again such an in-form side.

Bet: Rennes Wins

Hannover vs Wolfsburg betting tips by Gustav

Hannover had another entertaining game last weekend, however unfortunately for them they stood without a point earned, coming from a 4:3 defeat away to Hoffenheim. Overall, it was a very open and attacking game in which, actually, the visitors have created more chances and had more of the ball possession.

However, once again the team got punished due too many defensive gaps, as they continue to have very unreliable last lineup, having conceded eighteen goals so far – generally big number for Hannover comparing to previous seasons. They have earned much more points at home, having four victories and two defeats and there is no doubt their target this time will be three pointer, even though they meet against very strong and in-form side. Goalkeeper Markus Miller and central defender Andre Hoffmann are both without performance this season and both continue to be sidelined with long term absentees. Defensive midfielder Leon Andreasen (6/1) and right back Marius Stankevicius (1/0) both remain out injured.

After two consecutive defeats, against Everton in Europa League and away to Schalke in Bundesliga two weeks ago, Wolfsburg managed to bounce back to winning ways with a narrow 1:0 home victory against Gladbach last weekend. Only goal was scored in 12th minute by Knoche.

Even though there were no goals scored till the end, the game remained very open, with both teams having many chances to score, as it seems that the fairer result would be 3:2 or 3:1. They kept the second position, with three points above Leverkusen, while the target for this game surely remains a victory. They have scored ten goals in last three away matches as it generally seems that the team likes to play away from home, probably having less pressure. Left back Ricardo Rodriguez could return here coming from injury. Defensive midfielder Luiz Gustavo comes back from suspension too, while defensive players Patrick Ochs and Felipe Lopes both remain long term absentees.

Hannover have won their last 5 matches against Wolfsburg. Wolfsburg have won 7 of their last 8 matches in the Bundesliga.
Hannover have scored at least 2 goals in their last 5 matches against Wolfsburg. Both teams will enter the game in order to win, both with attacking tactics.

Wolfsburg will search for a victory, but the
hosts are more than dangerous in front of their own crowd. Over goals remains valuable choice here, as it can come even after the first time easily.

Bet: Over 3 goals

Arsenal vs Southampton betting tips by Isaiah

Arsenal pulled out very important victory away from home against West Brom with a narrow 1:0 result. Only goal was scored by Danny Welbeck in 60th minute, while the players of West Brom had no proper answer in attack for the whole game and were stopped with ease.

With this victory behind their backs, they broke a streak of two consecutive losses (away to Swansea and at home against Manchester United), while the team now needs another three pointer in order to keep the race for the Champions League spots. Arsenal’s injury list continues to be very length, as players Kieran Gibbs, Nacho Monreal and Alex Oxlade Chamberlain all picked injury last weekend in a victory over West Brom. On the bright side, goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny is back between the posts, while central defender Laurent Koscielny made return last weekend and will surely boost their morale. Ozil, Ospina, Diaby, Wilshere and Walcott all continue to be long term absentees.

Southampton was completely outplayed last weekend, for the first time this season, as the team suffered unexpectedly easy loss at home against Manchester City 0:3. The game was quite balanced in the first halftime, but the visitors entered the second half with upped tempo and looked more than dominant.

Even though Citizens were left playing with a man less since 74th minute when Mangala got red carded, visitors remained better on the field and managed to score two more goals in last ten minutes of the game – exactly when the hosts were expected to attack and revert the score. Defensive midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin (15/3) picked up an injury in a defeat against Citizens and will miss this game. On the bright side, other defensive midfielder Jack Cork (10/2) is back for this game. Midfielder James Ward- Prowse (5/0) and forward Sam Gallagher (no performance this season) are out injured.

There have been over 2.5 goals scored in 5 of Arsenal’s last 6 home games in the Premier League. Open game is expected here, with both teams switching to attacking formations this time. Arsenal comes from a victory and will surely play to get another one, while it’s hard to imagine that the visitors will once again stay without a goal scored, having in mind what quality they have in offensive lineup.

Bet: Over 2.5 goals

Everton vs Hull betting tips by Isaiah

Everton had quite a nice performance last weekend, but didn’t manage to stay undefeated away to Tottenham in their 2:1 narrow loss. They took the lead in 15th minute with a goal from Mirallas, while the hosts replied well with two goals till the halftime (21st minute Eriksen and 45th Soldado).

However, it has to be said that the visiting side had much more of the ball possession and had quite fair amount of goalscoring chances, actually deserving a draw in that game. They are having three victories at home in last four matches in all competitions and are surely aiming for another one tonight as they would approach even closer to European positions in case of a victory. James McCarthy and Steven Naismith are back in contention for this game after sitting out previous match. Central defenders John Stones (5/0) and Antolin Alcatraz (3/0) and left back Bryan Oviedo (1/0) and defensive midfielder Darron Gibson (6/0) all remain sidelined with long term injuries.

Hull didn’t manage to be competitive in away clash against Manchester United as they suffered 3:0 defeat. Game was already decided in the first halftime as the hosts had 2:0, while the visitors generally didn’t show anything in attack and had one of the most unimpressive performances in the season.

This was fourth consecutive defeat for the team, as they now have entered the relegation zone, having only a point less than rock bottom placed Leicester. Team is playing very uncreative and unimpressive football having scored only a single goal in last five encounters, quite lucky and early goal at home against Spurs three weeks ago. Offensive midfielder Gaston Ramirez (8/0) is suspended for this one, while forward Abel Hernandez (8/3) has been given a week of absence following birth of his child. Attacking midfielders Robert Snodgrass (1/0) and Robbie Brady (8/0)
will miss here too.

Everton have scored at least 2 goals in 11 of their last 12 home matches in the Premier League. Everton have scored at least 2 goals in their last 7 matches against Hull. Everton have won 5 of their last 6 matches against Hull.

Everton is playing very well in recent weeks, as they had eight matches undefeated run before last weekend. They did much better at home in previous games and have every reason to be big favorites against completely out of form Hull, team that hardly scores in away matches.

Bet: Everton Wins @ 1.55

Lille vs PSG betting tips by Neuro

Lille continues their poor form with a narrow 1:0 loss away to Bordeaux last weekend. Neither of the teams tried to much on the field, with the players of Lille looking just a bit more active, scoring the only goal in 62nd minute from Diabate.

Visitors didn’t manage to reply for the remaining thirty minutes, neither looking like they want to – as the team shows great lack of quality in the creative midfield and attack. They are now on a run of ten matches with not a single victory in all competitions as they now stand only two points away from relegation zone. Atmosphere is pretty poor right now, while the team can’t count on more positive result after this game. Very important central defender Marko Basa (16/0) is having a hamstring injury and won’t perform, as well as offensive midfielder Marcos Lopes (9/1). Coach Girard is happy to have Sébastien Corchia, Franck Beria and Pape Souare back here.

PSG now earned their ninth victory in a row in all competitions, coming from a 1:0 victory over Nice at home. Only goal was scored via penalty kick in 15th minute by Ibrahimovic, while the team didn’t show anything special for the whole game, being obviously satisfied with the narrow lead.

After Tuesday’s setback of Marseille in a 1:1 draw away to Lorient, PSG now has a chance to get back to the first position in case of a victory here. They are still undefeated in the league with 9-6-0 record, while it seems that poor form of their creative midfielders is past now and that the team scores with more ease in recent weeks. Marco Verratti is available here according to their coach Blanc. Thiago Motta and David Luiz are likely to sit out here and be rested. Substitute central midfielder Clement Chantome (8/0) and midfielder Yohan Cabaye (11/1) are out injured for this one.

PSG have won their last 6 matches in Ligue 1. Lille have lost 5 of their last 6 matches in Ligue 1. Lille have seen over 2.5 goals in their last 3 home matches against PSG. Having in mind both team’s forms, it’s hard to imagine anything but away victory here. PSG might rest once again their biggest star Ibrahimovic, but they have much more quality in whole roster and the hosts shouldn’t be able to
stay competitive with them for whole ninety minutes.

Bet: PSG Wins @ 1.78

Nice vs Rennes betting tips by Isaiah

Nice couldn’t do much more last weekend, as the team visited PSG and actually pulled out quite a good performance in only narrow 1:0 defeat. Only goal was scored in 15th minute from a penalty kick from Ibrahimovic, as the home team looked like satisfied with a narrow victory for the whole game.

Despite huge ball possession on their side, they didn't create many chances, while Nice actually had quite nice share of chances created, but without any goal scored. Even though they played well, team now has fourth match in a row without a victory, as they continue to be in the middle of the table, four points above the relegation zone. Coach Claude Puel will not be able to call on central defender Didier Digard (5/0) and his defending partner Mathieu Bodmer (9/1) once again due to injury. Play maker Carlos Eduardo didn’t play in previous game, but should
start here.

Rennes pulled out very important 2:0 victory at home against Bordeaux last weekend. Team opened the game in the best possible way, as they scored two goals in first twenty minutes (own goal and goal from Toivonen), sealing the victory with ease in the remaining of the match.

This was their third consecutive victory, as the team also has no defeat in last eight matches in all competitions, showing very good form at the moment. They climbed up to sixth position at the moment, being only two points below the Champions League places while their atmosphere surely now can’t be much higher in the locker room. Very important defensive midfielder Gelson Fernandes (15/0) is suspended for this game, while the visitors also can’t count at offensive midfielder Kamil Grosicki (8/0), doubtful is central midfielder Sanjin Prcic (7/0). After three months of recovery time, Christian Bruls is now ready to compete for a starting spot on the wing.

Rennes have won their last 3 matches in Ligue 1. Rennes plays more than well at the moment and have every chance to walk away with something here. On the other hand, Nice will be playing for a victory here, in an attacking manner they always do at home. Goals are expected here, with chances for both teams to score being bigger than 50%.

Bet: Both teams to score
