Premier League: Chelsea Secure Top Four Spot With Slim Win

West London giants Chelsea are in the top four places in the Premier League table for the first time this season following the slim victory over Newcastle United earlier on Saturday.

Chelsea beat Newcastle United at home by the odd goal to move into the top four on the Premier League table.

The Blues were frustrated by well organized Newcastle United and they needed a very good strike from Marcos Alonso to win the game.

The Spanish international scored the only goal of the game with 15 minutes left on the clock.

The 1-0 win over Newcastle United means that Chelsea have now won their last five games in all competition with three of those matches coming in the Premier League.

Chelsea moved into the top four for the first time this season as a result of the slim win over the Magpies.

The Blues are now one place ahead as a result of the victory which moves them to 17 points.

Chelsea move from fifth position to fourth position after usurping London rivals Arsenal because of the slim win over the Magpies.

The Blues can still move back to fifth spot provided that Arsenal are able to get a win over Sheffield United in their league game on Monday night.
