Newcastle vs Arsenal Preview
Arsenal claimed a cup win at Preston in midweek, but a draw with fellow title-challengers Liverpool left them five points off the top spot last weekend. Mikel Arteta’s side have scored just five goals in four league away games this term and under 2.5 goals has landed in four of Newcastle’s last five. Arteta will be heartened by the return of star centre-back William Saliba at St James’ Park after he missed the draw with Liverpool through suspension. Newcastle secured a much-needed victory against Chelsea in the Carabao Cup fourth round midweek having lost to the Blues in the Premier League last weekend. Newcastle badly need to pick up a league win soon, having gone five matches without one, and there’s a worrying trend developing. The team is feeling the impact of missed opportunities in the transfer market, where they failed to strengthen as needed. The Bournemouth defeat is the only away game Arsenal have lost this season. Arteta’s side have won at Aston Villa and Spurs.
Newcastle vs Arsenal Team news
Anthony Gordon is likely to return after he missed the trip to Stamford Bridge last weekend. Lewis Miley also made his comeback from a long-term injury in the closing stages midweek. Alexander Isak can miss the clash as he hobbled off in the second half in their win vs Chelsea. Gabriel is the major concern following Liverpool’s visit to north London last weekend as the Brazilian was withdrawn due to a knee injury.
