Bet on Newcastle vs ArsenalCan the Gunners Overturn Newcastle’s Lead?
Newcastle are in patchy form, losing two of their last three. Before that mini blip, Eddie Howe’s side won nine league and cup games in a row, including the first leg of this semi-final.
Arsenal warmed up for this crunch cup clash in the best possible way, thumping Manchester City in the Premier League. Mikel Arteta’s men embarrassed the champions at the Emirates, with Martin Odegaard, Thomas Partey, Myles Lewis-Skelly, Kai Havertz, and Ethan Nwaneri netting in a 5-1 rout.
Newcastle have beaten three Premier League clubs to reach the last four of this season’s EFL Cup, seeing off Nottingham Forest, Chelsea, and Brentford. They have one foot in the final after the first-leg win at the Emirates.
Arsenal have beaten Bolton Wanderers, Preston North End, and Crystal Palace, but they have given themselves a mountain to climb in this semi. Nevertheless, can Arteta’s troops work their magic and turn the tie on its head?
Recent Newcastle United vs Arsenal Head-to-Head Meetings
Arsenal were the heavy favourites, but Newcastle ran out deserved 2-0 winners in the first leg in London. Alexander Isak opened the scoring before the break, and Anthony Gordon doubled the Magpies’ advantage in the second period.
Newcastle also got the better of Arsenal when the sides met in the Premier League at St James’ in November. An early Isak strike was enough for a 1-0 United victory.
