How and why to watch Newcastle v Arsenal (Sunday, August 11 2019) This one, which is the early (2pm) leg of the first Sky Sports Super Sunday of the season, probably falls under the ‘interesting’ category rather than the exciting one. Newcastle, as a club, are still reeling a little from the loss of Rafa Benitez this summer, and the jury appears to be out on Steve Bruce. He will have new £40million Brazilian striker Joelinton to call upon, though, which promises to intrigue. Arsenal are in something of permanent transition themselves too these days, and it’s tough to ever really know what to expect from Unai Emery’s Gunners. They have splashed huge money on William Saliba and Nicolas Pepe from Ligue 1, and that has always been a good hunting ground for them in the past. Dani Ceballos, a loan capture from Real Madrid, is another noteworthy addition worth keeping your eye on.
