Arsenal want to remain unbeaten in the league
Newcastle United have earned their reputation as one of the hardest teams to play against in England. The Magpies showed their class again during the week. They should now do the same against Arsenal
The Newcastle vs. Arsenal prediction of the bookmakers clearly shows that there is no real favorite in this game. Rather, two of the absolute best teams in the league are playing each other in a direct duel.
Offensively, Newcastle have been able to show many good moments recently, Arsenal play more results-oriented soccer, but also not without highlights in forward play. Therefore, our Newcastle vs Arsenal betting tip is that both teams will score.
Newcastle – Statistics & current form
Newcastle United performed excellently last season, which is why the team is now dancing on several levels. The Magpies have only made friends with the Champions League to a limited extent, but everything is still possible in an admittedly tricky group. Things are looking good in the league, with coach Eddie Howe’s team playing at the top and in sixth place.
During the week, Manchester United’s crisis was exacerbated by a win in the EFL Cup. But the Magpies won’t care about that, it’s all about the next game and that will be against Arsenal. And that won’t be easy, because on the one hand the Gunners are a very good soccer team, but on the other Newcastle have not looked good against this opponent in recent years.
Specifically: Newcastle have only won one of their last ten games against the Gunners. Disappointments have been more frequent. But at least Newcastle have now gone six league games without defeat, which certainly ensures that their current form is good. The Newcastle vs Arsenal odds also show that the Magpies can keep up with the Gunners
Newcastle very efficient this season
With just one defeat in their last eleven competitive games, Newcastle have shown how difficult they are to beat in recent weeks. What’s more, no team has been as efficient as the home side so far. 26 goals speak for themselves, no other team has more. And: In five games at home, they have only conceded three goals and scored 13.
Although 17 points is not an ideal haul, this is more likely to come from the away games, where Newcastle have only managed one win. At home, the team collected an average of 2.4 points per game. That’s something to be proud of.
A total of eleven goals conceded is also a very solid figure. Under pressure, however, the defense sometimes makes a mistake and there will be pressure. Therefore, our Newcastle vs Arsenal prediction is that both teams will score
Predicted line-up of Newcastle:
Arsenal – Statistics & current form
Mikel Arteta and Arsenal are only just behind Tottenham in second place in the table. Arsenal’s start to the season has been truly remarkable, as they have yet to lose a single game in the new season. That is a very respectable interim result. Although they were recently knocked out of the League Cup, losing 3-1 away to West Ham, Arsenal had previously celebrated a commanding 5-0 win over Sheffield Wednesday in the league.
The visitors are currently missing a number of players, but the squad was strengthened in the summer for precisely this reason, especially in terms of width. There is more pressure on the pitch and the offense looks more fluid. Nketiah, who scored a treble against Sheffield Wednesday, was the main beneficiary of this. Arsenal seem happy with a lot of things at the moment, although not so much should happen in terms of personnel.
Matches away at Newcastle, meanwhile, are not quite as bad for the Gunners, with the business trip often looking like a good one. Only Manchester United have more away wins at St. James’ Park than the Gunners. It is interesting to note that the visitors are trying to exert less pressure with the ball this season and are much more aggressive against the ball
Arsenal’s strong run in the league
Arsenal FC have now managed not to lose eleven times in a row in the Premier League. That is a very good statistic in itself. The Gunners look very stable. Whether they can win the title this season will of course depend on many factors, but the visitors are generally a serious contender. Also because the defense has only conceded eight goals so far. In recent years, it has become clear that a good defensive structure is a really important key.
Most recently, Arsenal seemed to have found a solution against Newcastle, keeping two clean sheets against them. This is one of the reasons why our value tip ahead of the Newcastle v Arsenal game is that the visitors will not lose and that more than 1.5 goals will be scored
Predicted Arsenal line-up:
