Three points secures Champions League football for either of Arsenal or Newcastle today.
Arsenal vs Newcastle Prediction
- Arsenal showed great resolve to come from two-goals down to draw 2-2 at Liverpool last weekend.
- That said, the result means they have won only one of their last six in the league and are in danger of not finishing second.
- Newcastle are Arsenal's closest competitors for second, and having beaten Chelsea last time out, are now just two points behind the Gunners.
- Eddie Howe has overseen just two wins from their last six away games.
- Newcastle have already won at the Emirates this season but with a top-five finish on the line, a share of the spoils seems the fair call on Sunday.

Arsenal vs Newcastle Team News
- Kai Havertz is back in training for Arsenal, but is unlikely to be risked from the outset this weekend.
- Declan Rice and Leandro Trossard should be fit to start, which is a boost with Mikel Merino suspended.
- Gabriel Magalhaes, Gabriel Jesus and Takehiro Tomiyasu all miss out due to injury.
- Sven Botman was withdrawn early in the second half against Chelsea due to a knee complaint but it's not thought to be serious, and he should be fine to start.
- Eddie Howe may, therefore, continue with a three-man backline after last week's 2-0 win over Chelsea.
- Kieran Trippier, Joe Willock, Joelinton, Matt Targett and Lewis Hall all miss out.
