Arsenal vs Newcastle United Analysis
A place in the final of the Carabao Cup is at stake for these side in North London.
Arsenal
Keeping pace in the Premier League has been the key objective for Arsenal over the festive period but now attention turns to the Carabao Cup. Mikel Arteta’s side have made great strides in recent seasons but last won silverware back in 2020 and have work to do if they are to address that issue soon. This feels like a big chance to kick on in the Carabao Cup for Arsenal and they will be out to put in a big showing here for their supporters.
Team news: Ben White, Bukayo Saka and Takehiro Tomiyasu will miss out here for Arsenal.
Arsenal Predicted Lineup:
Neto, Kiwior, Zinchenko, Gabriel, Saliba, Rice, Jorginho, Trossard, Jesus, Nwaneri & Martinelli.
Newcastle United
A huge upturn in form over the festive period in the Premier League has propelled Eddie Howe’s side up into the top 4 and they have Carabao Cup glory in their sights once again this season. Toon reached the final in 2023, coming up short against Manchester United but they will want to stay in contention for as long as possible this season too. Winning a trophy would be a huge marker in the sand this season and they look ready to have a good go at the Gunners in this one.
Team news: Callum Wilson, Nick Pope and Jamal Lascelles are all out of action here for Newcastle.
Newcastle United Predicted Lineup:
Dubravka, Trippier, Botman, Schar, Hall, Tonali, Joelinton, Guimaraes, Murphy, Isak & Gordon.
Arsenal vs Newcastle United Prediction
This should be a fantastic contest at the Emirates Stadium, with so much at stake for both teams. Both sides have Premier League commitments to manage but the chance to kick on and chase down a trophy is hugely appealing for both clubs and their supporters. This is a two-legged tie, so neither side will feel the need to go all out but with Arsenal being at home, they should secure an advantage to take to the North East next month.
Prediction: Arsenal to win the match – 3/4 (-125) – Rhino Bet.
Arsenal vs Newcastle United – The Ultimate Bet
Arsenal to win & BTTS – 2/1 (+200) – Fitzdares
