Author’s Opinion:
St James’s Park will be tough for Arsenal. Arsenal does not really have a chance in reaching the finals of the Carabao Cup in my opinion. Newcastle United is way too strong and is undefeated for 7 games now. Arsenal have been facing a lot of injuries too. Kai Havertz have been playing really terrible at the same time too. The Gunners are already on the lookout to get a goo striker in the squad before its too late.
