Newcastle take on the visitors Arsenal in the round 11 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Saturday, November 4th at St. James Park (Newcastle).
Many believed that after such a successful previous season, the Magpies might struggle in the new season. Newcastle had a somewhat challenging start in the Premier League, with just one win in the first four matches (although it was a convincing 5-1 victory over Aston Villa). However, the team then suffered three consecutive defeats, against Manchester City (0-1), Liverpool (1-2), and Brighton (1-3). But then the Magpies got their act together and embarked on an unbeaten streak of six matches in the league, which continues to this day (four wins and two draws). During this time, Eddie Howe's team scored 19 goals. However, they haven't kept a clean sheet every time and recorded two 2-2 draws against West Ham and Wolverhampton.

The vice-champion of the country has already drawn with opponents three times in the current season, often engaging in high-scoring affairs that ended 2-2. All three of these instances occurred in derbies against Fulham, Tottenham Hotspur, and Chelsea. Arsenal have not suffered any defeats in the current season (seven wins and three draws), and they are currently sitting in the second place in the league table. Mikel Arteta's team has been doing exceptionally well in attack, scoring 23 goals in 10 matches. However, defensively, the Gunners are far from perfect, as they have conceded goals not only against Tottenham Hotspur, Chelsea, and Fulham but also against Manchester United (3-1) and Nottingham Forest (2-1). In the UEFA Champions League, Arsenal scored in all three of their group stage matches, with two of them featuring both teams scoring.
It's a tricky match to predict the outcome of. The balance could tilt in either direction, and the match could unfold in various ways. Both teams are strong and evenly matched. The only aspect to bet on in this match might be both teams scoring. Both Newcastle and Arsenal have been prolific in attack in the current Premier League season, averaging over two goals per game. However, neither side has been impeccable defensively, with both conceding at least five goals in the league this season. They haven't exchanged goals in their last ten head-to-head meetings. In my opinion, it's about time they do. The bet: Both teams to score!
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score – yes.
