Before the Chelsea team attends to their international obligations at the World Cup, Graham Potter will be eager to get back to winning ways. On Saturday, November 12, Newcastle United will host the Blues at St. James' Park in a match that is expected to have a major impact on the battle for a spot in the top four come season's end.
Eddie Howe's team has gone nine Premier League games without a loss and has won four of their past five. Newcastle is in excellent form right now and appears ready to challenge the west Londoners.
Chelsea, though, has lost their last four Premier League games and is in desperate need of a victory before the squad disperses later this month. Omari Hutchinson is one of several youngsters whose appearance is highly-anticipated, as is Lewis Hall who impressed midweek against Manchester City.
So, with that being said, football.london have drawn up three ways Chelsea can set up against Newcastle on Saturday afternoon.
3-4-3
Armando Broja has warranted a start, especially with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang enduring a somewhat uninspiring vein of form. Kai Havertz as the right-sided number ten could be an exciting option, having impressed in said role before for Germany.
