Arsenal vs Newcastle United – Predicted lineup and team news | OneFootball

Arsenal take on Newcastle United this afternoon knowing a win will secure Champions League qualification.

The Gunners sit second in the Premier League table but a downturn in form means points are required. Arsenal have failed to win in five games across all competitions.

The North Londoners will confirm their place in the Champions League with a win, though defeat will see third-placed Newcastle climb above them in the table.

Newcastle arrive in the capital in good form and have lost just one of their last nine in the Premier League. The Magpies have already beaten Arsenal three times in all competitions this season, without conceding a goal.
