Chelsea predicted XI v Newcastle United as £90m triple change considered by Mauricio Pochettino

Chelsea predicted starting XI v Newcastle United. The two teams meet at Stamford Bridge in the Premier League this evening.

Newcastle United can heap further pressure on Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino by claiming a rare victory at Stamford Bridge this evening (kick-off 8pm).

The Magpies haven't beaten the Blues at Stamford Bridge in 12 years with their last visit in December ending in penalty shootout heartbreak that resulted in being dumped out of the Carabao Cup at the quarter-final stage.

In terms of the Premier League table, both clubs are in the race for European qualification. Newcastle are 10th, four points and one place above Chelsea, with Manchester United, West Ham United, Brighton & Hove Albion and Wolverhampton Wanderers battling to finish between sixth and 11th.

It is why tonight's meeting in West London could prove pivotal come May, although there is 10 games remaining.

We've already provided our predicted Newcastle United starting XI - and here, with the help of our sister title LondonWorld, this how Chelsea are tipped to line-up.

Pochettino will be forced into at least two changes with Ben Chilwell and Levi Colwill missing from the 2-2 draw with Brentford last time out.
