How do the two teams set up?

Confirmed line-ups land about an hour before kick-off.

Home

Arsenal

Arsenal are built to control games. They should hold most of the ball at Emirates Stadium and pin Newcastle back for long periods.

Away

Newcastle United

Well organised and hard to play through, Newcastle usually earn results on their trip to Emirates Stadium by winning the midfield battle.

What would change our mind?

The developments we would react to before kick-off.

  • If Arsenal name a weakened XI

    Rotation or a key absence would take several points off their win chance; check line-ups an hour before kick-off.

  • If Newcastle score first

    The favourite has to chase, and both the draw and the upset become much more likely.

  • If a red card comes in the first hour

    Ten men changes the expected-goals picture entirely, whichever side it hits.
