Arsenal vs Newcastle

Arsenal have lost just one of their last 20 Premier League home games against Newcastle (W17 D2), winning 11 of the last 12 (D1) since a 1-0 loss in November 2010.

Following their 1-0 win at St James’ Park in November, Newcastle are looking to complete their first league double over Arsenal since 1994-95.

Newcastle have won three games against Arsenal this season, 1-0 in the Premier League and 2-0 in both legs of the League Cup semi-final. No team has ever beaten the Gunners four times in a single campaign.

Newcastle have won five of their last eight meetings with Arsenal in all competitions (D1 L2), as many as they had in their previous 52 against the Gunners (D11 L36).

Arsenal have only lost their final home league game in one of the last 27 seasons (W22 D4), going down 2-1 against Aston Villa in 2010-11. The only time their final home game of a league campaign was against Newcastle was in 1996-97, losing 1-0 thanks to a Robbie Elliott goal.
