Here we have a preview of this big Premier League game along with all the stats to help you make up your bet builders and betting tips for the game.
On Sunday afternoon in the Premier League, we see 2nd-placed Arsenal take on 3rd-placed Newcastle United at St James Park.
Arsenal will be looking to get the three points to keep the pressure on league leaders Manchester City.
Newcastle United will be looking to put a dent in Arsenal’s title hopes and put the Magpies one step closer to Champions League qualification.
Previous Premier League Game
Newcastle’s most recent Premier League game saw them take on Southampton at St James Park. Eddie Howe’s side were victorious after a brace from Callum Wilson and a Theo Walcott own goal.
The Magpies finished the game 1-3 winners and added a further three points which has taken them up to the dizzy heights of third place on sixty-five points.
The Gunners took on their North London rivals Chelsea in their last game in midweek and we saw Arsenal win the game by three goals to one.
Martin Ødegaard scored a brace and also ex-Manchester City man Gabriel Jesus made it onto the score sheet.
Arsenal are currently four points behind Manchester City but Mikel Arteta’s side will have played one more game than City after today’s game against the Magpies.
Crucial players
Arsenal’s most creative player this season is undoubtedly Martin Ødegaard.
The Norwegian has had a huge impact on Arsenal this season after joining from Real Madrid in the summer transfer window 2021 for £40m.
Ødegaard has had twenty-one goal contributions this season in the Premier League, scoring fourteen and assisting seven.
Newcastle’s record signing Alexander Isak who they bought for a huge £63m has had a positive impact in recent weeks.
The Swedish man has scored ten goals in just seventeen appearances.
Eddie Howe’s team have benefitted massively from the new signing and he will be looking to finish the season strong after returning from injury a couple of months ago.
