Newcastle vs Arsenal Prediction & Betting Tips (2 November)

Eager to win a European folding seat this season, Newcastle has not met expectations so far . Indeed, the Magpies are only in 12th place in the Premier League with 5 points out of 5th place. Undefeated during the first 4 days, they have not won since 2 draws and 3 defeats, which explains their recent downgrading. Newcastle remains on two losses suffered against Brighton 0-1 and Chelsea last weekend 2-1. Close to the title in the two previous years, Arsenal aims to win the championship this season.

The London team is currently 3rd in the Premier League and is 5 points behind the leader. Authors of a good start, the Gunners however suffered their first hitch on the Bournemouth pitch just after the international break in October 2-0. Last weekend, they were held to a draw at home by Liverpool 2-2 .

The Newcastle coach deplores the loss of senior defenders Botman and Trippier, the often prolific striker Wilson and the substitute Lascelles. Also absent on the last day, the important winger Gordon and the number 2 goalkeeper Dubravka are, for their part, uncertain. Scorer last weekend , Swedish international Isak (2 goals in PL) should be returned to the attacking front and be supported in particular by Barnes (3 goals in PL). After 9 days, the Magpies have only found the net 9 times. For Arsenal, we must mention the injuries to replacement defenders Tomiyasu and Tierney as well as captain Odegaard.

Furthermore, the Italian international Calafiori is uncertain while the captain Saliba has not finished serving his suspension. Major recruit of the offseason, midfielder Mikel Merino opened his goal counter with the Gunners last weekend. The offensive captains Saka (3 goals and 7 assists in PL) and Havertz (4 goals in PL) are also available.
