Chelsea made the trip up north to St. James’ Park to take on Newcastle United. Steve Bruce’s side found themselves behind after just 10-minutes thanks to an unfortunate own goal from Argentine defender Fernandez. Chelsea lead 1-0 at the break but doubled their advantage through Tammy Abraham in the 65th-minute after good work from Timo Werner.

Tottenham had been on an eight-match unbeaten run across all competitions before their 3-1 home defeat by Liverpool last week, a match in which they also lost star striker Harry Kane to injury.

Tottenham have won just one of their last 34 away games against Chelsea, drawing 11 and losing 22. Although that victory came as recently as April 2018, they have lost on all three trips since.

Harry Kane has been directly involved in more Premier League goals (16) than any other player this season, scoring seven and assisting nine. Tammy Abraham, meanwhile, is looking to score in three consecutive Premier League games for the first time in his career.

• Two of the last three games between these two clubs have seen both teams score.
• Chelsea have scored in five of their last seven away league matches.
• Both teams have scored in four of the last five Tottenham games.
