Newcastle vs Arsenal: Prediction, kick-off time, team news, odds, h2h

That will be easier said than done as Mikel Arteta’s side are coming up against a Newcastle team that have proven difficult to break down in the Premier League so far this season, conceding just three goals.

Though, Eddie Howe is still searching for the right formula in attack following the departure of Alexander Isak in the summer and will hope the four goals scored in midweek against Bradford is a sign of things to come.

Two of the meanest defences in the league are set to do battle in arguably the standout fixture from England’s top-flight this weekend.

Newcastle vs Arsenal is scheduled for a 4.30pm BST kick-off on Sunday, September 28, 2025.

The match will take place at St James’ Park.

TV channel: In the UK, the game will be televised live on Sky Sports. Coverage starts at 4pm BST, after the Aston Villa vs Fulham fixture, on Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Premier League ahead of the 4.30pm kick-off.

Live stream: Sky Sports subscribers can also catch the contest live online via the Sky Go app.

Live blog: You can follow all the action on matchday via Standard Sport’s live blog, with expert analysis from Simon Collings at the ground!

Free highlights: The Sky Sports app and YouTube channel will show highlights shortly after the final whistle with Match of the Day broadcasting on BBC One at 10.30pm BST.

Newcastle can welcome Anthony Gordon back after the England international served a three-game domestic suspension for his red card in the loss to Liverpool last month.

Howe has rotated heavily in the past two games but is expected to hand starts to the likes of Nick Pope, Sandro Tonali, Nick Woltemade and Valentino Liveramento, while Joe Willock is pushing to feature against his former club.
