10 Key Stats Ahead Of Newcastle United Vs Arsenal

4 - Premier League Clean Sheets For The Magpies In 2015

As a result of their magnificent defensive display at Old Trafford against Manchester United - when they undoubtedly rode their luck on occasion - Newcastle recorded only their fourth Premier League clean sheet this calendar year. Incredibly, that means the Magpies have kept a greater number of clean sheets (four) than they have won games (three) in 2015. Those other three clean sheets came in Newcastle's three victories this year in fact, against Hull City (3-0), Aston Villa (1-0), and West Ham United (2-0). Can they make it a fifth shutout of 2015 against The Gunners?
