Newcastle have not won any of their last five Premier League matches, slipping down to 12th place, now six points behind Arsenal.
Throughout these games, Newcastle created numerous dangerous chances but failed to convert them. Alexander Isak has only scored two goals so far this season despite having numerous opportunities; he could easily have added another two or three to his tally.
Isak excels at combining with his teammates on the flanks, whipping in dangerous crosses, and, most importantly, making timely runs behind defenders to find himself in scoring positions.
Anthony Gordon deserves a mention for his versatility on both wings, consistently delivering quality balls into the box. Although Gordon frequently positions himself in promising areas, converting these chances has been a challenge for him this season.
Bruno Guimarães contributes with precise deliveries from wide areas, while Joelinton excels at dribbling and often finds himself within the opponent’s penalty area.
If Newcastle’s attacking players can become more clinical, the team’s results could improve significantly. Particularly on their home turf, Eddie Howe’s squad displays a very high attacking speed, which is difficult for opponents to handle.
The Magpies have achieved good results this season at St. James’ Park, including victories over Southampton, Tottenham, and Chelsea (in the League Cup). They also held reigning champions Manchester City to a draw, while suffering a loss to Brighton despite creating more chances than Fabian Hürzeler’s side.
However, with Jamaal Lascelles, Sven Botman, and Kieran Trippier absent, Newcastle is left with a vulnerable defensive line that could be exploited, especially by Arsenal.
However, In their recent home game against Manchester City, the Magpies demonstrated a strong defensive organization in the midfield block. This level of discipline may be key in their next match.
| Recent Form | WLLDW |
| Key Players to Watch | Alexander Isak, Bruno Guimarães, Anthony Gordon, Harvey Barnes |
| Team Strengths | Pressing and quick attacks. |
| Team Weaknesses | Positional attacks against deep blocks. |
| Key Injuries and Suspensions | Jamaal Lascelles (Knee Injury), Sven Botman (Knee Injury), Callum Wilson (Lower Back Injury), Kieran Trippier (Thigh Injury) |
Arsenal have only secured one point in their last two Premier League matches, leaving them five points behind Manchester City and four points behind Liverpool.
Arsenal’s recent away defeat to Bournemouth has cast doubts over their title ambitions. Arteta’s team dropped three important points against a mid-table opponent. This loss underscores lingering issues with player discipline, as multiple red cards have left them shorthanded at key moments.
Moreover, Riccardo Calafiori’s frequent injuries, which could have been anticipated before his transfer to Arsenal, complicate Mikel Arteta’s ability to rotate the squad effectively.
It also remains unclear how long Martin Ødegaard can maintain his form after recovering from injury and whether Bukayo Saka, who has carried much of the attacking burden over recent seasons, can sustain his high-intensity contributions.
Arsenal has three away matches ahead: against Newcastle, Inter (Champions League), and Chelsea, followed by a home match against a defensively strong Nottingham Forest. After this series of games, the Gunners might fall critically behind Manchester City, potentially diminishing their title hopes.
Therefore, Arsenal cannot afford to make any mistakes against Newcastle, and Arteta’s squad will be fired up to secure all three points.
The return of William Saliba after his suspension, along with Bukayo Saka who has fully recovered from a minor injury, will certainly boost Arsenal’s chances in this match.

| Key Players to Watch | Bukayo Saka, William Saliba |
| Team Strengths | Positional attacks, pressing. |
| Team Weaknesses | Numerous injuries. |
| Key Injuries and suspensions | Takehiro Tomiyasu (knee), Martin Ødegaard (Ankle/Foot Injury), Riccardo Calafiori (Knee Injury), Jurrien Timber (doubtful), Gabriel Magalhaes (doubtful) |
Last season, Newcastle and Arsenal each claimed a home win. In the first half of the season, Eddie Howe’s team won 1-0, overpowering Arsenal with relentless pressing and high intensity. The Gunners managed only one shot on target in that match and struggled to carve out clear-cut chances.
In the return at the Emirates, Arsenal secured a convincing 4-1 victory. Arsenal completely dominated the match, leaving their opponents with no opportunities to mount a comeback.
Overall, since 2010, Arsenal has had a much better record in their head-to-head encounters with Newcastle. The Magpies have only managed four wins in 25 matches.
Arsenal sorely missed William Saliba in their previous match against Liverpool. The French center-back is arguably one of the best players in his position in world football, and his presence could have been prevented Liverpool’s second goal.
Saliba’s return is critical, especially since Arsenal have difficult matches ahead against teams with potent attacking lines.
Newcastle will heavily rely on Bruno Guimarães, who needs to control the opponents’ active movements in the central area of the pitch. Additionally, the Brazilian midfielder can be very useful in the attacking phase, particularly because Arsenal defends in a 4-4-2 formation. This gives Newcastle a potential advantage to create a numerical superiority in the center, allowing a 4 vs 3 situation.
For Arsenal, the main objective will be to control the transitions from attack to defense, while Newcastle will aim to quickly deliver the ball to their attacking line.
Newcastle, on the other hand, employ a high press, spending most of the game in a low block to prevent Arsenal’s players from finding space in the final third.
A key point to watch will be whether Arsenal adopt an attacking style or choose to play defensively, as they successfully did in their recent away match against Tottenham.
Bet hereNewcastle consistently creates dangerous moments and scores goals at home, making it likely that they will find the net against their opponents.
Meanwhile, Arsenal is in fantastic form, with Bukayo Saka shining as one of their standout performers. The Gunners will be highly motivated to win this match, meaning they are likely to push forward with a strong attacking lineup. This could lead to an open game with plenty of opportunities to score.
The scenario where both teams find the back of the net seems highly plausible in this matchup.
Newcastle have been experiencing consistent defensive issues this season, having conceded goals in six out of their eight matches.
Despite suffering a 0-2 defeat to Bournemouth away from home, Arsenal remains one of the top attacking teams in the Premier League. Therefore, it’s highly likely that the visitors will score at least one goal in this match.
