This weekend sees Newcastle United take on Arsenal FC in what promises to be a thrilling game, with both teams battling it out for their respective positions in the league table. Sunday’s game marks almost a year since the last time the teams met at St James’ Park. Arsenal might tell you they have done much more than Newcastle, but the Magpies are still in with a chance of a top-4 finish and know what it takes to grind out results.
For Arsenal, this season has been about consolidating their position in the Premier League, whilst Newcastle are on the up, having won games this season that they might have lost just a few years ago. Newcastle are no longer the team they were a year ago, having clinched some memorable victories against other top teams, and Eddie Howe deserves credit for this.
Arsenal‘s manager Mikel Arteta will be looking to avoid a repeat of last time they met, when Newcastle inflicted a painful defeat that removed the Gunners from Champions League contention, which ultimately enabled Newcastle’s run for a top-4 spot this season. Arsenal will have to shift their best game, and Newcastle will need to maintain their form if they hope to get a win.
Going into the match, Newcastle’s starting line-up will be determined by who is fit and available, hence Eddie Howe’s no-rotations approach may be beneficial. Newcastle have a solid defense and have been scoring more goals this season, but Arsenal have always been dangerous going forward, so it promises to be a heated encounter.
