Newcastle vs Arsenal - Premier League: TV channel, team news, lineups & prediction
- Seven points separate Newcastle and Arsenal
- Differing Carabao Cup fortunes on Wednesday night
- Both teams struggling with injuries
By Euan Burns
Two of the best sides in the Premier League face off on Saturday evening when Newcastle host Arsenal at St. James' Park after differing fortunes in midweek for the two sides.
Newcastle were very impressive in the Carabao Cup as they cruised past Manchester United at Old Trafford, whilst Arsenal were knocked out by West Ham United, a result that few saw coming.
Still recovering from their poor form at the very start of the season, a win for Newcastle would see them really tighten things up in the top six as they are actually seven points behind Arsenal before kick-off. Should they win, it would be an unbeaten Arsenal's first loss of the Premier League season.

Newcastle vs Arsenal score prediction
This is really not an easy one to call with both sides undoubtedly having lots of quality, whilst also missing some very important players. The deciding factor could well be the home crowd at St. James' Park which will be right up for this one after the win over Manchester United.
There is more of an onus on Newcastle to win this as they try to catch and overtake teams like Arsenal, and that could play into their hands as they seem to thrive on taking control of matches.
