Newcastle United Predicted XI (And Score) Vs Arsenal

13. Newcastle United Vs Arsenal €“ Our Writers€™ Score Predictions

Chris Waugh (NUFC Editor) | @ChrisDHWaugh Arsenal love playing against Newcastle United and Olivier Giroud will get his customary double against the Magpies, but Steve McClaren€™s men will earn a second-straight draw. Aleksandar Mitrovic will cause the Gunners€™ defence a whole host of problems and will grab his first NUFC goal. Although they will struggle to hold on to the ball for long periods, Newcastle will take advantage of Arsenal€™s brittle confidence to claim a point. Prediction: Newcastle 2-2 Newcastle UnitedRoss Tweddell (NUFC Writer) | @TwedzTweets Giroud header. What€™s new. Prediction: Newcastle 0-1 Arsenal Matt Smith (NUFC Writer) | @ElasticoChop Arsenal will be confident coming into the fixture but Newcastle's last two games have brought some positivity back to the club after a shocking performance against Swansea. Aleksandar Mitrovic will hopefully grab his first goal for the club and the blossoming partnership between Florian Thauvin and Daryl Janmaat will hopefully cause the Gunners some problems. With that said, Olivier Giroud and Alexis Sanchez will have to be closely marked and it may take some of the same luck the Magpies had at Old Trafford if they're going to claim any points. Prediction: Newcastle 1-2 Arsenal
