Prediction

  • After two matches without a victory, Newcastle cruised past Manchester United in Wednesday night's Carabao Cup fourth round clash.
  • Eddie Howe's side took the lead twice at Wolves last weekend, but ultimately had to settle for a point.
  • Arsenal were brought back down to Earth after their 5-0 thrashing of Sheffield United last weekend when West Ham knocked them out of the Carabao Cup in midweek.
  • A largely rotated Gunners side were convincingly beaten by the Hammers, and Mikel Arteta will be hoping that a full-strength XI can perform to a much higher standard here.
  • A competitive affair is anticipated in this one, with both sides potentially set to cancel each other out and share the points.
