Newcastle vs Arsenal predictions: Chris Sutton on Premier League game

Chris Sutton is making predictions for all 380 Premier League matches this season, against a variety of guests.

For week 10 he takes on The Piano TV series winner Brad Kella.

Sutton’s prediction: 1-1

This is a bit of a grudge match after what happened when Arsenal went to St James’ Park last season and lost a controversial Anthony Gordon goal.

Newcastle are on a run of five league games without a win, but they have been a little unlucky during that spell. They are creating plenty of chances, but just not scoring enough of them.

I worry about Arsenal in the final third too, though, because they are wasteful as well.

The Gunners really need a win here to cling on to the tail of leaders Manchester City, but my gut feeling is that Newcastle will get something out of this game, and it has got a draw written all over it.

Brad’s prediction: 2-2

I need Arsenal to lose this game but I’m not sure Newcastle will beat them, so I’m hoping for a draw.
