Chelsea vs Newcastle United kick-off time

Premier League - Premier League

Stamford Bridge

Chelsea vs Newcastle will kick off on 14 Mar 2026 at 13:30 EST and 17:30 GMT. 

Match preview

Chelsea's 5-2 defeat to PSG on Wednesday in the Champions League Round of 16 first leg was their first loss under Liam Rosenior against a team not called Arsenal. Although they've been much-improved with Rosenior at the helm, recent dropped points at home against lowly Leeds and Burnley highlighted some bad habits which they aren't shaking. The Blues did make up ground on Aston Villa last time out by beating the Villans 4-1 at Villa Park, leaving them only three points adrift of Unai Emery's side, who occupy fourth place.

Newcastle produced a stellar display against Barcelona at St James' Park in the Champions League Round of 16 first leg, eventually having to settle for a 1-1 draw after a late Lamine Yamal penalty. That completes a mixed bag of results in four home games on the trot in three competitions. A Premier League defeat against Everton was followed by a win over Manchester United, and then a defeat to Manchester City in the FA Cup and the aforementioned result against Barca.

Step-by-step VPN guide to watch Chelsea vs Newcastle United today

NordVPN

1. Download & Install: Sign up to ExpressVPN or another reputable VPN service (check out GOAL's guide here) and download the app on your device.
2. Connect to a Server: Open the app and select a server location where the match is being shown (e.g. if you are in the UK but want to watch a US stream, connect to a US server).
3. Clear Cache: Sometimes your browser holds onto your old location. Clear your cookies or refresh your browser to ensure the change takes effect.
4. Start Streaming: Go to your broadcaster's website and app and enjoy the game.

How to watch on the Big Screen

Watching on your phone or laptop is fine, but live sports belongs on the big screen. Here is how to get the VPN working on your TV:

• Smart TVs & Fire Stick: Most Android-based TVs and devices like the Amazon Fire TV Stick or Google Chromecast with Google TV have native VPN apps. Simply search for your VPN provider in the app store on your TV, log in, and connect just like you would on your phone.
• Apple TV, Roku & Consoles: These devices often don't support direct VPN apps. The easiest workaround is to use Smart DNS (usually found in your VPN account settings) or Mirror/Cast the stream from your VPN-connected phone or laptop to your TV.
