Chelsea vs Newcastle Preview & Prediction
After overcoming reigning champions Manchester United 3-0 in the last round, Newcastle head to the capital to take on Chelsea in the quarter-finals of the Carabao Cup on Tuesday evening.
The Blues’ win in the last round wasn’t quite as glamorous, however they got the job done with Raheem Sterling and Benoit Badiashile scoring either side of the half time whistle to overcome Championship side Blackburn Rovers 2-0 at home.
Both sides come into this one off the back of victories in the league, with Chelsea beating Sheffield United 2-0 to bring a two game losing streak to an end, meanwhile Eddie Howe‘s Magpies dispatched 10-man Fulham 3-0 to end a run of three successive defeats in all competitions.
The pair last met less than a month ago, in the Premier League, where Newcastle put their London-based opposition to the sword with Alexander Isak, Jamaal Lascelles, Joelinton and Anthony Gordon all scoring in a 4-1 rout at St. James’ Park.
Since then though, the Magpies look to have struggled with the packed winter schedule and have suffered numerous injuries in recent weeks. Despite this, we at SportsLens still anticipate a victory for the visitors, but only by the narrowest of margins.
Prediction: Chelsea 1-2 Newcastle

Chelsea vs Newcastle Betting Tips
- Newcastle Double Chance @ 19/20
- Callum Wilson To Score Anytime @ 12/5
- Combined Bet Builder Odds @ 15/4
Chelsea vs Newcastle Betting Tip 1: Newcastle Double Chance @ 19/20
Our first tip for your Tuesday night Chelsea vs Newcastle Carabao Cup bet builders is to back the visitors to either win or draw the match, priced by leading UK betting sites at 19/20.
As previously alluded to, the Magpies battered Chelsea on Tyneside less than a month ago, and come into this one off the back of an impressive 3-0 win over an in-form Fulham side.
Their inconsistent form as of late makes it hard to back them to win the match outright within 90 minutes though, hence why we at SportsLens are playing it slightly safer by backing Newcastle to either win or draw.
Chelsea vs Newcastle Betting Tip 2: Callum Wilson To Score Anytime @ 12/5
Alexander Isak missed out on Saturday’s win over Fulham as precaution according to his manager, and as he faces a late fitness test ahead of the midweek cup action – we expect Callum Wilson to lead the line once more.
The ex-Bournemouth striker featured for the entire 90 minutes against the Cottagers at the weekend, seeing him start for the Magpies for a fourth successive match across all competitions.
Without a goal since netting a brace against Wolves at the end of October, Wilson will be desperate to see his name back on the scoresheet. Priced at 12/5 by leading UK bookmakers, we at SportsLens are backing him to do exactly that by scoring at anytime on Tuesday night.
