Arsenal vs Newcastle Betting Tips

Having just witnessed a goalless FA Cup draw between Arsenal and Newcastle, it seems logical to tip a low-scoring clash when the same teams take to the Emirates Stadium pitch on Monday night, with the visitors likely to use the same blueprint for this encounter.
The Gunners needed extra-time to progress to the next round of the competition and they’re once again strong betting favourites to win this clash, although punters might be wary of backing the London side at odds-on despite a recent upturn in form.
Are Arsenal Premier League Bankers to Beat Newcastle?
While Mikel Arteta’s side have racked up nine points from their past three matches, two of their wins were against low-ranking sides, with Arsenal edging out Brighton by a single goal before a comprehensive victory at The Hawthorns although they couldn’t have asked for easier opponents.
The Gunners have only won three of their eight home games to date and that FA Cup clash illustrated that they can hardly be described as flat-track bullies despite the promise that is being shown by Emil Smith-Rowe and Bukayo Saka.
Newcastle Aiming to Land a Point at the Emirates
Steve Bruce saw his team miss a few chances of their own last weekend and perhaps Andy Carroll can cause similar problems for the home team’s rearguard, while Callum Wilson should return to the starting line-up after missing the FA Cup clash.
The Magpies are aiming to score a point from this game to keep them well clear of the drop zone and our prediction is that the game will be low-scoring irrespective of the outcome.
We can back two goals or less being scored with the chance of doubling our money and it’s perfectly feasible that we’ll see Arsenal win the game 1-0 or 2-0.
