Martinelli's stoppage-time equalizer saved the Gunners from defeat to Man City, but with that result, Arsenal are now five points behind defending champions Liverpool in the standings.

An air of frustration has descended on the north London half, with criticism of Mikel Arteta's conservative squad and bland tactics.

Arsenal face the risk of falling further behind if they continue to lose at St James' Park, where their head-to-head record has not been as expected.

In fact, The Gunners have lost all three of their last away trips to Newcastle, and have lost four since Arteta took charge.

The Magpies are aiming to beat the Gunners without conceding a goal. However, they need to improve their attack to repeat their feat, having only scored three goals in the Premier League this season.

After Alexander Isak left, a huge void appeared. Anthony Gordon was initially the most advanced player, had 10 shots but still failed to score.

At the end of the summer transfer window, Nick Woltemade emerged as a "savior". The German striker immediately left his mark with the only goal that helped Newcastle defeat Wolves in round 4.

Although Newcastle has the second worst attack in the league since the beginning of the season, Eddie Howe's students are being praised for their defense, keeping clean sheets in the last 3 Premier League matches.

With home field advantage and solid playing style, Newcastle will certainly cause many difficulties for the Gunners, who often get stuck against highly organized defensive teams.
