Chelsea v Newcastle United LIVE STREAM: How to watch Premier League football online

Chelsea host Newcastle United at Stamford Bridge in the first game of a packed Premier League weekend.

It’s the first time Newcastle boss Rafael Benitez will have returned to Stamford Bridge since he delivered European silverware in the 2012/2013 season.

But the Blues are on a good run of form as of late, and Chelsea boss Antonio Conte knows that a win would put them level on points with Manchester United.

Chelsea recall Eden Hazard and Cesar Azpilicueta to a first team that also includes Álvaro Morata and Cesc Fàbregas. Danny Drinkwater also makes a rare start for Chelsea in midfield.

Dwight Gayle leads the line for Newcastle, Ayoze Pérez slots in to the number 10 role, while Jacob Murphy and Matt Ritchie will work the wings.

The Newcastle bench includes the likes of Jonjo Shelvey, Joselu and Aleksandar Mitrović, but there’s no room for the injured trio of Jamaal Lascelles, Christian Atsu and Paul Dummett.
