Newcastle amazed Arsenal during the first round with a decisive away win of 2-0 under Eddie Howe. Newcastle now just has to prevent conceding more than one goal while losing. They have already eliminated Brentford, Chelsea, and Nottingham Forest in this year’s edition of the Carabao Cup.
If Arsenal lose against Newcastle, this will be their third time losing in League Cup finals. They have won six of their eight most recent cup matches and the other two were draws. They do come into this match after losing to Fulham 2-1 at home, and currently are sixth in the league with only two points separating them from the top four.
Arsenal last lifted the cup in 1993 and repeating their success will be much more difficult this time around. In order to qualify to the finals, they will need a solid performance away from home. In the event that Arsenal wins by two goals, the tie goes to penalties.
It is fascinating that Arsenal have only been defeated by more than one goal on two occasions this season, most recently losing 0-2 to Bournemouth in the Premier League. For the Cup, the team’s form away from home is considerably good, as Arsenal have lost only once in normal time over their last 10 away matches which includes five wins and four draws. Over the weekend, the Gunners obliterated Manchester City, beating them 1-5 at home.
