Newcastle United vs Chelsea Tickets

Newcastle United vs Chelsea is a match that brings plenty of excitement to supporters when they see it on the Premier League fixture list each season. The Blues represent one of the biggest sides in English football and have a number of superstars that they can call upon to help make this fixture all the more entertaining and the prospect of providing fans with some mouth-watering action on the St. James’ Park turf.

Newcastle United, known as the Magpies or the Toon Army, are not a club enriched with silverware, however they are one of the most recognised sides to be involved in English football. However, recent memories have been a bit bleak for the Geordies as the team has had to deal with relegation and mid-table finishes in recent years as stability and performances have been a real concern for those in black-and-white.

The Blues have become one of the most decorated clubs in English football in recent decades, having raised no fewer than five Premier League titles, as well as having great success in European football and domestic cup competition. This success has helped provide them with a huge reputation around the footballing world, which helps to attract more eyes to the fixture with Newcastle.

With meetings being held at the iconic St. James’ Park stadium between the two sides, the venue becomes one of the places that needs to be experienced in person. With both sets of fans extremely passionate about their side, the 52,388-seater stadium - the eighth-largest in the country - becomes a truly remarkable place with an atmosphere like no other in the Premier League and one that has high expectations as to what they will see on the pitch.

Previous Newcastle United versus Chelsea meetings at St. James’ Park have produced an abundance of goals, with both sides having enjoyed the rewards they bring. One fixture that will remain in the memories of many will be the host’s 3-0 victory in 2018, whilst the 3-2 win in 2013 is also remembered fondly. Chelsea, in truth, do not have the best record when playing away against the Magpies, with a 1-2 victory in 2018 the only one they can look back on in recent memory with fondness.

Previous encounters between the two sides have seen a number of superstars take to the field and offer fans some of the very best football they have ever witnessed. The likes of Alan Shearer, Nolberto Solano, Diego Costa and Frank Lampard have all excelled in previous matches between the two teams.

Newcastle United versus Chelsea certainly provides fans with a match that can whet the appetite when played at the St. James’ Park Stadium, as the action on the pitch is always intense and fierce, with both sides looking to get all three points in the pursuit of their wider aims.
