St James' Park has not been an easy destination for Arsenal recently. However, Mikel Arteta's team will arrive in Tyneside this weekend with the aim of winning all 3 points.
Gabriel Martinelli's injury-time goal helped the "Gunners" earn a point in the 1-1 draw with Manchester City last week. They avoided a defeat to a direct competitor after losing to Liverpool in August.
However, this result left Arsenal 5 points behind Liverpool in the rankings, adding to the importance of the match against Newcastle.
Newcastle are on a 3-match winning streak at home to Arsenal, including 2 Premier League games and 1 Carabao Cup semi-final last season, without conceding a goal.
Although Arsenal's defense is still solid, Arteta will likely still need Bukayo Saka to increase his creativity.
The Gunners are currently sixth in expected goals (7.39 xG) in the Premier League this season, but only 3.1 of those xgs have come from live-fire situations.
Meanwhile, Newcastle have failed to score in three of their five Premier League games this season. This is not surprising as they sold Alexander Isak, while rookie Yoane Wissa was injured during the international break.
In general, under Arteta, Arsenal have lost 4 away matches against Newcastle in all competitions. Every defeat against the "Magpies" leaves a big price for The Gunners.
In February, Arsenal lost 0-2 in the second leg of the Carabao Cup semi-final. Newcastle won the final and then ended a 70-year wait for the title with a championship.
