Newcastle boss Joe Kinnear is confident of getting something from Chelsea this weekend.

He told the Evening Chronicle: "Stamford Bridge has always been a bit of a lucky ground for me, as a player and manager.

"As you would have expected when I was with Spurs we often used to win at Chelsea.

"And I can remember winning there 4-2 as a manager with Wimbledon, and it has been quite a good place for me."

He also said: "Who is to say we won't get a result?

"It is a great opportunity for us.

"When I used to play I looked forward to these games.

"I was right-back at Tottenham and George Best was a left-winger but I looked forward to the challenge."
