This is going to be the most interesting game on Saturday, when Arsenal host Newcastle. Arsenal lost to Fulham in the second round, and they will be certainly disappointed by the result, but the Gooners easily qualified for the Champions League on Wednesday by beating Twente 4:0. Newcastle continued with good results, and after the draw at Old Trafford they managed to beat Bolton thanks to Michael Owen goal, who has just recovered from injury. This will be another test for Keegan’s team as they face big Arsenal.

Fabregas is back

Arsenal started the season without several key players, mainly Fabregas and Rosicky, which meant that new signing Nasri and Denilson played in the heart of midfield. Despite the victories over WBA and Twente, it could be seen that the team really missed these two players. And the loss at Fulham, made Wenger hurry with the return of Fabregas. Arsenal enjoyed a lot of possession in this game but couldn’t turn it into clear chances, and the hosts scored through Hangeland to claim the victory. Fabregas was back in the line up for the Wednesday game with Twente, and the result was evident, four goals scored by Arsenal. The whole team is happy to see young Spaniard fit, and now they will be more confident with him in the team.

Newcastle started well

This has been one of the better starts of the season for Newcastle. Four points from the games with Manchester and Bolton have to be a success. It seems that Keegan’s shrewd moves in the transfer market have produced results, and all three new players have fitted right in. after the point from the opening game, Newcastle had to prove their credentials with a win over Bolton. And it turned out to be harder than expected. The visitors allowed Newcastle plenty of possession, and when Elmander got injured Megson brought on Gavin McCann, which was a sign of defensive tactics. The hosts threatened, but they were unable to score, and it was Bolton who had the chance to take the lead after they were awarded the penalty. Nolan missed the penalty, and the visitors were punished when Michael Owen scored the winning goal. Martins and Viduka are injured, while Carrol and Ameobi are doubtful.

Betting verdict

The teams go into this game after some good results. Though Arsenal lost to Fulham, they welcomed Fabregas back after injury and trashed Twente in the return leg of the Champions League qualifying round. The team will gain a lot by the return of young Spaniard, and they will want to redeem for the defeat against Fulham. Newcastle is playing well at the moment, and they have shown a lot of determination to win against Bolton. Both teams have a lot of attacking potential and we expect to see some goals.
