ARS Vs NEW Fantasy Team Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: Newcastle United sit perilously close to the relegation zone.
Matters are only worsening for Newcastle United with each passing fixture. Where the club was able to squirm its way to drab draws previously, the side has now started being drubbed to defeats, results which have seen the club slump all the way down into 15th spot.
Losing three of their last five matches including two on the bounce, Newcastle United are a meagre seven points above the relegation zone. And it’s a cushion fast vanishing up in smoke with the team offering absolutely nothing on the pitch.
The side’s most lacklustre and listless performance came last week with the side losing to a Sheffield United side which was yet to register a win this term.
ARS Vs NEW Fantasy Probable Winner
We just can’t see Newcastle United salvaging anything from today’s matchup with Arsenal having it extremely easy on the day.

Fantasy Team
Goal-Keeper
One of the only players who has looked above relegation quality for Newcastle United, Karl Darlow will retain his place in our team.
Defenders
He finds company as ever in Frederico Fernandez, a player who has done everything within his disposal to keep attacking plays at bay.
Where Arsenal now have three cleansheets on the spin, Newcastle United on the other hand have failed to score in three of their last four matches. This has a cleansheet for Arsenal written all over it to see us opt for Gabriel Magalhaes, Rob Holding and Hector Bellerin.
Midfielders
Jeff Hendrick has been nothing of the player Newcastle United envisaged they were getting. However, he still has the one goal and one assist, figures which see him line up for us.
Arsenal on the other hand will see Bukayo Saka feature for us courtesy of his three goals. The returning Thomas Partey needed just a half of football to show what he brings to the middle.
Strikers
For all his shortcomings, Alexandre Lacazette is currently Arsenal’s top scorer with 7 goals. Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang who has the 3 strikes will be his partner.
Scorer of over half of his side’s goal, striker Callum Wilson has already scored 8 and assisted three goals despite getting no assistance from his compatriots.
Captain And Vice-Captain
Saka’s goal and assist off late see him be our captain while Holding is the vice-captain.
Fantasy Team
Darlow, Frederico, Gabriel, Hector, Rob, Thomas, Saka, Jeff, Pierre, Lacazette, Wilson
