Sunday's big EPL fixture will take place at St. James' Park, where Newcastle and Arsenal will do battle. For the hosts, it's all about kicking on following that pleasing EFL Cup win in the week, and if we're being honest, that victory needs to spark some improved form in the league, with the Magpies currently sitting down in 13th place after five games.
The Gunners find themselves in a pleasing second place, but head coach Mikel Arteta probably won't be happy with the fact that his team are already five points behind league leaders Liverpool. Having rescued a tie late in the day against Man City last week, the visitors will be hoping to get back to winning ways in the league, though let's face it, their recent record in the North East isn't exactly favorable.

Newcastle - Arsenal: Form Analysis
For the hosts, there was midweek success in the EFL Cup, with the Magpies making light work of beating lower-league Bradford City by four goals to one on home soil. However, in the league, they've not been in amazing form so far this season, winning only one out of five games, tying three of the other four, failing to score in three of those four. Final-third improvements are definitely called for.
As far as the Gunners are concerned, form hasn't been too much of an issue, even if the visitors haven't been quite as imperious as they'd like. They beat Port Vale in the cup during the week, which followed the tie against Man City. In all competitions, Arsenal have won three of their last four, losing none of those four.

Newcastle & Arsenal Squad Analysis
Summer signing Jacob Ramsey is out for the Magpies, while the same can be said for veteran Fabian Schar, who is typically an important player for Eddie Howe. Yoane Wisse, who also joined in the summer transfer window, is another absentee thanks to a knee injury. Following his three-game suspension, winger/forward Anthony Gordon is now available for selection.
Gabriel Jesus continues on the sidelines for the Gunners, as does Kai Havertz. There are also considerable doubts over the readiness of Martin Odegaard, who has twice been forced off early this season. Unfortunately, the hugely positive and influential Noni Madueke, who has impressed since joining Arsenal from Chelsea, is also expected to miss out with a knock.

Our Newcastle vs Arsenal Prediction
Eberechi Eze has been eased into life at Arsenal, with boss Mikel Arteta likely cautious of the fact that the English creator can pick up injuries quite quickly. Having been given time to settle, Eze is now starting to show what he's made of, registering two assists in his last two EPL appearances, while he scored a timely goal in the EFL Cup during the week.
Clearly one of the most dangerous players in the league, Eze can make a telling contribution on Sunday. Our Newcastle vs Arsenal Pick: Eberechi Eze to Score or Assist.
