Why they should win

Arsenal

  1. 51% to win on the KhelKing goals model, a fair back price of 1.96.
  2. 1.62 expected goals to 1.02: they should create the better chances.
  3. Home advantage at Emirates Stadium, worth about three tenths of a goal.
  4. A title-level squad that can change the game from the bench.

Newcastle United

  1. 23% to win plus 26% for the draw: 49% that Arsenal do not win.
  2. Counter-attacks: a favourite chasing the game leaves space behind.

Team shape · 05

How will the two teams set up?

Official line-ups are announced roughly an hour before kick-off.

At home

Arsenal

Arsenal carry a title-level squad. They suffocate opponents at Emirates Stadium, so Newcastle will need a disciplined low block to stay in it.

Away

Newcastle United

Newcastle are well coached, with enough cutting edge to punish errors on the road at Emirates Stadium. Their game is built on winning the midfield.

What could change · 06

What would change the KhelKing prediction?

Team news and match events that would move our numbers.

  1. If

    Arsenal field a weakened XI

    Then

    Rotation or a missing key player would take several points off their win chance. Line-ups drop an hour before kick-off.

  2. If

    Newcastle score first

    Then

    The favourite must chase, and both the draw and the upset become far more likely.

  3. If

    a red card arrives in the first hour

    Then

    Playing with ten men rewrites the expected-goals picture, whichever team it hits.
