Second:In the top 3 battles of the Premier League, the Magpies fought back away without fear of Arsenal! Arsenal have lost all four of their seasons this season, and keeping the top two in the Premier League is the last goal for Arsenal. Newcastle are aiming for a place in the Champions League in the Premier League, with competition for the top five in the Premier League fierce, and of course Newcastle will move up to second place in the Premier League if they beat Arsenal away. From a personal point of view, Arsenal is more eager to get three points to keep the top two positions, so the home team is likely to be the main attacking team, and teams like Newcastle especially like to play counter-attacking battles, with strong confrontation ability, speed in counterattacks, and height in set-pieces. In the face of Arsenal's main attack, Newcastle, which is actually playing a counterattack away, is not afraid of Arsenal. In this game, there is a possibility of a draw, and taking a point is acceptable for both sides, and Arsenal's goal difference advantage will temporarily retain the top two, while Newcastle can also hold the initiative in the fight for five with one point. Although Newcastle's away record is not as good as at home, it is completely possible to defend and counterattack against strong teams away from home.
To sum up, this campaign is optimistic that Newcastle will be unbeaten away, and the Champions League place will allow the Magpies to fight hard.
The two sides have met in the past 6 times, and Arsenal has 2 wins and 4 losses, which is at a disadvantage. Arsenal have suffered three consecutive defeats against Newcastle, losing 2-0 away to Newcastle in the first leg of this season's Premier League.
