Arsenal must reverse a deficit of two goals against Newcastle if they want to reach the final of the Carabao Cup.
The Gunners Trail 2-0 of the semi-final in the first leg last month after Alexander Isak and Anthony Gordon gave the Magpies of Eddie Howe a dominant advance before the match of tonight in St James’ Park.
The men of Mikel Arteta, however, enter the match of good humor after their demolition 5-1 of Manchester City this weekend, Newcastle trying to bounce back after a home defeat 2-1 against Fulham.
Newcastle lost in the final of this competition two years ago and has not won a trophy for 75 years, while Arsenal is only looking for its second piece of major silverware under Arteta.
