Arsenal will be travelling to St. James Park on Saturday in an early Premier League kick off against hosting side Newcastle United.

The Gunners will be keen to get back to winning ways in the domestic league after dropping points over the last two weekends. Coupled with injuries, Arsenal suffered a 2-0 loss to AFC Bournemouth a match that saw William Saliba sent for for a proffesional last man foul. The Arsenal’s key player missed their clash against Liverpool at the Emirates, a match that ended with a 2-2 scoreline.

However, in the Carabao Cup, the north London side registered a 3-0 win to advance to the quarter finals of the tournament.

Meanwhile, Newcastle United have suffered two consecutive defeats in the Premier League, 1-0 to Brighton before losing 2-1 to Chelsea. In the midweek EFL Cup, they had a sweet revenge as they knocked Chelsea out of the tournament with a 2-1 victory. 12th in the league standing, Newcastle United will be hosting third-placed Arsenal in their first game of the English Premier League matchday 10.

Probable line-ups

Newcastle United
Pope; Livramento, Schar, Burn, Hall; Tonali, Guimaraes, Joelinton; Barnes, Isak, Gordon

Arsenal

Raya; White, Saliba, Gabriel, Timber; Rice, Partey; Saka, Trossard, Martinelli; Havertz

Prediction

Newcastle United have proven to be a formidable opponent for Arsenal at St. James’ Park, winning their last two home encounters, including a controversial 1-0 victory most recently. However, Arsenal delivered a commanding 4-1 win over Newcastle in the reverse fixture at the Emirates. This ongoing rivalry sets the stage for an exciting match as both teams prepare to clash once again.

Despite Newcastle’s history of strong performances at home against the Gunners, they have struggled this season. In contrast, Arsenal’s away form has been exceptional, suffering only one defeat on the road since 2023. Given this impressive run, Arsenal are well-positioned to secure another victory and continue their excellent form away from home.
