Arsenal is set to face Newcastle United in the Premier League this weekend, and their unbeaten run this season faces a significant challenge.
Despite facing tough opponents like Tottenham, Manchester City, and Chelsea, Arsenal has managed to remain unbeaten.
However, there are more challenging matches ahead, and Newcastle is a team that they cannot afford to underestimate.
Under the management of Eddie Howe, the Magpies have shown signs of resurgence and even defeated Manchester United in their last competitive match prior to facing Arsenal.
This puts them in a strong position to give Arsenal a tough challenge. The BBC has provided some interesting statistics ahead of the match:
- Arsenal has won 19 of the last 22 meetings with Newcastle in all competitions, a stat that should please Arsenal fans.
- Arsenal has kept the most Premier League clean sheets against Newcastle compared to any other opponent, with the total standing at 30.
- Newcastle has failed to score in eight of the last nine league matches against Arsenal, underscoring Arsenal’s historical superiority in their encounters.
Despite these statistics, football matches can be unpredictable, and each game is a fresh opportunity for teams to prove themselves. Arsenal will need to be at their best to maintain their unbeaten run against a resurgent Newcastle side.
Just Arsenal Opinion
The stats we have just read will fill any Arsenal supporter with confidence and prove we are the bigger club, but we cannot be complacent.
The Magpies are doing well and are playing in the Champions League, so we must accord them complete respect.

But despite our impressive good away record at St James’ Park. But have us not lost to Newcaste at their backward in the Epl last 2 seasons ago?
However, to our credit we beat them 0-2 on their ground in the Epl last season.
Nevertheless, Arteta and the Gunners have to deliver a repeat of our lastseason away win at Newcaste to us .and deliver it unfailingly.
Our beating Newcaste will start to sooth the pains which West Ham had inflicted on us at London Stadium last Wedsday night when they knocked us 3-1 out of this season Carabao Cup competition . A knocked out that has seen our dream, wish and hopes to win the quadruple dissapointingly dashed. I think Arteta should bear the responsibility of this unwarranted Cup match loss and apologize to us Arsenal unreservedly.
So, against Newcaste, the Funnerrs MUST turn up in the match. And play an incredible high performance game in the match to beat the Magipies and beat them unfailingly, the Gunners MUST not hid in the match to later give excuses why they lost if they lost the match. But they MUST show up properly and very well too in the match to win it and win it.
I honestly think this is the toughest fixture in the league this season for any of the big teams. My hope only comes from the fact Newcastle have lost a couple of times, so it can be done. We’ll really need to turn up today.
