Arsenal and Newcastle United lock horns in the Premier League on Sunday as both sides aim to secure their place in the Champions League next season.
The Gunners will be guaranteed to return to Europe‘s top table should they beat the Magpies on home soil, while a draw would all but secure their berth given their superior goal difference. Newcastle would also be almost certain of reaching the Champions League with victory, but a draw or defeat would leave them sweating on the final day of the season.
Arsenal have only won one of their previous six Premier League matches as focus turned to an ultimately unsuccessful Champions League campaign, but they have maintained second place in the table regardless. With Southampton to come on the final day of the term, Mikel Arteta‘s side shouldn‘t slip below their current position.
Newcastle have enjoyed another hugely successful campaign under Eddie Howe having won the Carabao Cup and performed consistently in the Premier League. They are closing in on a return to the Champions League after qualifying in 2022–23 but victories for Aston Villa and Chelsea on Friday night mean there is little room for error in their final two outings.
Here is guide to the clash.
