No team in Premier League history has lost the title after collecting 16 points from 43 games, and those in red and white are just starting to believe that little bit more by the week, as Mikel Arteta’s young guns continue to defy pre-season expectations. Arteta admitted that his side did little to stem the flow of Brighton’s eye-catching response, but a 14th top-flight win of the season – coupled with Manchester City dropping points against Everton – allowed the Gunners to enjoy their midnight celebrations seven points clear at the top of the table.
With the champions not in action until Thursday’s battle with Chelsea, Arsenal – who are the only Premier League team with a 100% home record still intact – could remarkably extend their lead into double figures on Tuesday night, thereby silencing a few more doubters of their title credentials. While an astounding 10-game winning run on home soil is nothing to be scoffed at, only Nottingham Forest have failed to score against Arsenal at the Emirates during that hot streak, so a record-equalling 29th clean sheet against Newcastle is far from a guarantee.

Denied time and time again by the imperious Illan Meslier, Newcastle’s authority over Leeds United ultimately counted for very little at a rainy St James’ Park on New Year’s Eve, as the Whites travelled back to the West Midlands with a hard-earned point to their name. It was not for the want of trying for Howe’s men, who could not find the breakthrough despite enjoying 59% possession and 16 shots on goal, but the mood around Newcastle on New Year’s Eve was undoubtedly still a cheerful one as they reflect on a year of monumental progress.
Victory over Leeds would have allowed Newcastle to move level on points with Man City, but the Magpies remain on the final podium spot entering 2023 – only two behind the reigning champions and nine adrift of Arsenal, both of whom have a game in hand – so the two teams on the Emirates turf could occupy first and second place if Howe’s side get the job done on Tuesday. While there was a sense of missed opportunity on Saturday, Howe’s side have still posted just the one defeat in league action this term – even then Liverpool only scraped a 2-1 Anfield win right at the death – and they are unbeaten in their last 12 top-flight games since that August beating.

The optimistic Arsenal fans will point towards their perfect home record and spate of Emirates successes against Newcastle, but clean sheets in the capital have been hard to come by for the hosts, who were exposed on several occasions by Brighton. The 72-hour turnaround will not benefit either side here, but assuming Newcastle can quickly rediscover their clinical edge, we can picture a high-scoring draw between two free-flowing attacking forces, which would not be the worst result for either manager.
Arsenal 2-0 Newcastle United, predicted by us.
