Newcastle United will spend the Premier League hiatus in the top three after deservedly beating Chelsea 1-0 on Saturday.

St. James' Park erupted when Joe Willock smashed the ball in from the edge of the 18-yard box in the 67th minute. The result extends the Magpies' hot streak to seven wins and three draws over their last 10 top-flight outings.

Meanwhile, Graham Potter enters the 2022 World Cup break hoping an extended run at the training ground will help Chelsea address their run of four defeats over their past five matches in all competitions.
