Where Can I Watch?
Why Bet on Newcastle?
Newcastle has been somewhat irregular in the English championship because they also face the Champions League. Having a short roster has not allowed them to score as many points as they would like in the Premier League.
The Magpies are coming from a 2-2 draw with Wolverhampton, but what should have left the team upset is that they were 2-1 up with a brace from striker Callum Wilson. However, they failed to hold to the lead in the second half.
They are sixth in the Premier League with 17 points, six points off the places to qualify for the next Champions, but it should be noted that Newcastle has the best offense so far with 26 goals.
Eddie Howe’s team has only lost one game at home, against Liverpool. The rest of the matches were victories against Aston Villa, Brentford, Burnley, and Crystal Palace.
Wilson is the club’s top scorer with seven goals, four behind Erling Haaland, while Sweden’s Alexander Isak has six conversions.
In addition to the suspended Sandro Tonali, the Magpies have players in the medical department such as Isak, Harvey Barnes, Jacob Murphy, and Sven Botman.
Why Bet on Arsenal?
Arsenal is in second place and is still undefeated in the league, so they want to avenge what happened last season when they lost the title in the final stretch against Manchester City.
The Gunners beat Sheffield United 5-0 the last time, with goals from Eddie Nketiah (3), Fabio Vieira, and Takehiro Tomiyasu. Thus, Mikel Arteta’s team’s season can be summed up as seven wins and three draws.
Arsenal has scored 23 goals, one of the best offenses in the competition, and has in Nketiah its best scorer (5). Winger Bukayo Saka has four goals and three assists.
On the road, they have taken 10 out of 12 points. The only time they dropped points on the road was against Chelsea, drawing 2-2 at Stamford Bridge.
Arteta has one serious injury, defender Jurrien Timber. With muscular injuries are midfielder Thomas Partey and Brazilian striker Gabriel Jesus, who has only managed to score once in the Premier League.
Final Betting Analysis: Newcastle vs. Arsenal
Newcastle need points to avoid slipping away from the possibility of qualifying for the Champions League again. However, the points at St. James’ Park will go to Arsenal, who are ready to try to take over the top from Tottenham.
The numbers at MyBookie.ag have Arsenal as favorites, as the Moneyline for them shows +155. Meanwhile, Newcastle has +190, and the draw is at +240.
