Arsenal welcome Newcastle to north London for an intriguing Premier League clash under the lights this evening at the Emirates Stadium.
The Gunners are back in top-flight action looking to make amends for a blunt Champions League showing in midweek, which saw them fail to register a single shot on target and lose 1-0 in Porto. It has been a different tale back on home soil where they have scored 11 goals in their last two games.
Newcastle’s defence is one of the weakest in the league and have not kept a clean sheet in 2024, but two wins and two draws from their last four matches suggest Eddie Howe’s team has shaken off their miserable results of late December and early January.
The previous meeting between these two teams saw Newcastle win in controversial fashion after an Anthony Gordon winner and a lack of possible red cards led to VAR audio being released, a rant from Mikel Arteta and an eyebrow-raising statement from Arsenal over the standing of refereeing.
