Newcastle v Arsenal Predictions and Free Bet Tips
Newcastle v Arsenal Match Preview
Newcastle will be eager to dent Arsenal’s title challenge when they welcome them to St James’ Park for the Saturday lunchtime kick-off.
Arsenal have so far proved to be quite resilient despite going through an injury crisis albeit they will have been disappointed not to cling on for three points against Liverpool last weekend.
Newcastle, on the other hand, have put their Premier League concerns to one side and they booked their place in the quarter-finals of the Carabao Cup with a classy 2-0 win over Chelsea in midweek.
Over the years, there have been some classics staged between Newcastle and Arsenal, although the Gunners were seething last term in the corresponding fixture when they were undone by some VAR controversy in a 1-0 defeat.
A thrilling chapter will be added to this storied fixture this weekend, and both sides need to win for different reasons.
But who will prevail? I have pored over the markets and handpicked a couple of Newcastle Arsenal betting tips for you to consider.
Arsenal to find a way to get the job done
This is a huge opportunity for Arsenal to prove that they will be in the title race for the long haul again this season.
Although they came up short against Liverpool as they dropped points, they have done little wrong this term, and that is despite seeing more bodies head for the treatment table.
Riccardo Calafiori and Ben White may be absent at the weekend, but William Saliba will return after serving his suspension, so Mikel Arteta won’t lose sleep.
While Newcastle have produced some good results against the Gunners over the years, they need to rectify their woes in front of goal. They have struck just nine times, and it is the same return as lowly Ipswich.
This feels like a make-or-break kind of couple of weeks for Arsenal with away trips to follow against Inter Milan in the Champions League and Chelsea in the Premier League.
A win against Newcastle will close the gap on league leaders Manchester City to just two points, at least for a few hours, and I expect Arsenal to prevail even if in scrappy fashion. For my first pick, I’m going with Arsenal to win & BTTS which is trading at an inviting 14/5 with William Hill.
Arsenal to stage comeback
Cast your mind back to 2011, and Arsenal were cruising after just 26 minutes away to Newcastle, surging into a 4-0 lead.
But the Magpies staged an incredible fightback and Cheick Tiote scored a stunning volley three minutes from time to secure the most unlikely of draws for the home side.
Arsenal haven’t always found it easy going against Newcastle, but late goals have been a constant theme. Anyway, this term, there have been 21 goals scored in the 90th minute or later.
To support my first pick, I’m going with Arsenal to win from behind and I’ve located a tasty price of 7/1 with bet365.
