ARS Vs NEW Dream11 Team, Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: Arsenal strive to break free of their slew of draws
When Arteta had taken over as manager of Arsenal midway through the season, it was clear that he wouldn’t be able to transform the outfit in the blink of an eye. There were a plethora of issues engulfing the side, ones the new manager was going to need some time to address.
And now with a good amount of time to start addressing those problems and plugging them, the initial period of Arteta’s tutelage has been a promising one. While Arsenal still find themselves in 10th spot in the Premier League, the improvement is there for all to see with the defence slightly improved to curb Arsenal’s horrid string of defeats.
However, with those defeats only transforming to drab draws, it’s clear that the journey is a long one for Arsenal. Their 0-0 draw to Burnley the last time around was the club’s fourth draw in succession, one which further shut down their chances of qualifying for the Europa League. Come today, they’ll be looking to arrest that languid form and break free of their despondent impasse as they look to give their ardent supporters something to rejoice in.
ARS Vs NEW Probable Winner
With Newcastle United level on points with Arsenal and having been unscathed in their last four showing, Arsenal are going to find it a tepid past to win this one as well. What will work in their favour though is Newcastle United’s backline when playing in matches away from home, a disgruntled defence which should allow Arsenal to outscore their opponents.
