Newcastle manager Alan Pardew believes his side can repeat history at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.

The Magpies secured a stunning victory thanks to two stunning strikes from Papiss Cisse and Pardew believes his side can do it again.

“Chelsea are the European champions. They won the Champions League and they have improved since then - Hazard looks a great buy. We know him well, so we know what to expect from him,” he told reporters.

“There are no surprises in that team, but I think in some ways, we can match them and give a good showing there.

“Certainly with this team, I think we are a little bit stronger than last year.”
