Newcastle vs. Arsenal Predictions

• Where: St. James’ Park, Newcastle, England
• When: Sunday, May 7, 5:30 pm CET

Arsenal’s title hopes plummeted following their loss at Etihad, and the Gunners are now second in the English Premier League standings. They are one point behind the Citizens, who have a game in hand as well. Even though the situation looks hopeless for Arsenal, Mikel Arteta and his boys can’t surrender now, and their only choice is to fight until the very end. Newcastle is slowly cementing its Champions League spot and is seven points ahead of Liverpool. Right now, Eddie Howe’s crew has no tensions or problems.

Newcastle vs. Arsenal Preview

Newcastle

The Magpies have three wins in a row and are in pretty good shape. Overall, Newcastle’s record over the last 10 Premiership games is eight victories and two defeats.

In those three consecutive victories, we’ve seen them beating Tottenham, Everton, and Southampton, scoring at least three goals in each event, for 13 overall throughout the run. Eddie Howe’s attackers clicked at the perfect time, pushing the club upwards in the standings. 

Newcastle plays powerful and ruthless football at home, not allowing the rivals to impose their tempo and style of play. The single defeat at St. James’ Park since the start of the calendar year came at the hands of Liverpool, 0-2. 

Arsenal

The Gunners’ title hopes disappeared throughout April. At first, they played 2-2 on the road in Liverpool and at West Ham, on both occasions having a two-goal lead and allowing the rivals to come back. After that, we’ve seen them posting another draw, 3-3, at home to Southampton. 

And then came the grand finale and a high loss to Manchester City at the Etihad, 4-1. It was the fourth consecutive Premier League event without a win for Arteta and his team, meaning the Citizens jumped over them, taking the top spot.

Six of their previous events saw both teams netting at least four goals, which suggests that Arsenal plays interesting and exciting games. Unfortunately for the fans, not effective.
