Arsenal vs Newcastle: Prediction, kick-off time, TV, live stream, team news, h2h results, odds today
Perhaps the toughest game of their season so far awaits Premier League leaders Arsenal today as they welcome Newcastle to north London.
Having not yet faced second-placed Manchester City, a meeting with the third-placed Toon is, on paper, the de facto most difficult game Mikel Arteta’s men have dealt with while sat seven points clear at the top.
Both teams have only lost once in the league and Newcastle will feel that victory in the capital will mark out their own surprise title credentials.
