How to watch Newcastle vs Chelsea? TV channel, live stream details and kick-off time
by Jake Stokes · football.londonChelsea are three games without a win at St. James' Park, so Enzo Maresca will be looking to transform the Blues' fortune. Newcastle United will host the west Londoners on Sunday afternoon as they both look to climb the Premier League.

"We know the importance of where we finish in the Premier League and we are doing everything we can to finish as high as we can. There's a possibility it could go to the last game but all we can do is take care of our next opponent."
What has Maresca said?
Speaking to reporters at Cobham training ground on Friday, Maresca said: "It's a big one, it's a huge one. United will be a big one, Forest will be a big one. Now we have three more games, all of them are going to be big games.
"For sure, Sunday is a chance to start in the right way. We are in a good run, in a good mood and hopefully we can play a good game and win the game."
