Newcastle United F.C. vs Arsenal F.C. Prediction 2 November 2024
Added on 31 October, 2024
The tenth round of the Premier League kicks off in Newcastle, where Arsenal, aiming for a top-tier finish, takes on the Magpies at St. James' Park.
Newcastle, once vying for a place among the league's top clubs, has seen its momentum stall due to financial fair play concerns. Recent slip-ups—a 1:3 loss to Fulham, draws with Manchester City (1:1) and Everton (0:0), and defeats by Brighton (0:1) and Chelsea (1:2)—have pushed the Magpies down to twelfth place with 12 points and a 9:10 goal difference.
Meanwhile, Arsenal has shown resilience. They triumphed over Leicester (4:2) and Southampton (3:1) at home, held Manchester City and Liverpool to thrilling 2:2 draws, and only faltered against Bournemouth, losing 0:2. With 18 points and a 17:10 goal difference, the Gunners sit in third place.
Historically, matches between these two in Newcastle have been low-scoring affairs. But with both teams under pressure to secure a favorable position, we can expect a more aggressive approach and likely a goal from each side.
