Former Chelsea defender William Gallas insists they'll win at Newcastle on Saturday.

Gallas admits he doesn't rate Newcastle this season.

"I don't know why, but I'm not worried about Chelsea going to St. James' Park on Saturday," Gallas told Genting Casino.

"Newcastle don't look as good as they did last season. OK, they beat Arsenal one nil, but then they lost their next two games to Dortmund and Bournemouth.

"Maybe because they are playing in the Champions League, I don't think their performances are the same as last season. I think Chelsea will get something from that game. They should be looking to come back to London with a point at least. I can't see them losing that game."
