They have been lethal in front of goal, having scored 2+ goals in 10 of their last 12 games with Over 2.5 goals featuring in their last five games across all competitions.

Newcastle have scored 2+ goals in three of their last four games in this competition. 

Mikel Arteta's Arsenal have been in an impressive run of form, with just one defeat in their 21 games in all competitions and come into this fixture on the back of dominant 5-1 win over Premier League champions Man City. 

They have now won six of their last ten games in all competitions with five of their last six games seeing Over 2.5 goals.
