Newcastle United have defeated Arsenal 2-0 in the first leg of their Carabao Cup semi-final clash on Tuesday night. The Magpies arrived at the Emirates on the back on great form. Eddie Howe’s men won their six matches in a row and came into the game confident.

Arsenal host Newcastle tonight as both sides look to take the upper hand in their Carabao Cup semi-final first leg at the Emirates. Mikel Arteta’s side are unbeaten in 13 games across all competitions and reached the final four of this competition after a topsy-turvy 3-2 win against Crystal Palace last month.
