Newcastle will play their final home game of the season under the lights at St James’ Park and the mood will be jubilant. Earlier this week the club’s Premier League survival was confirmed, after Leeds lost to Chelsea. It makes the Magpies the first side ever to fail to win any of the first 14 league games and still avoid relegation. Of course, a £92m spend in January helped, but Eddie Howe was rightfully shortlisted for Manager of the Year for the achievement.
While the home side now has little to play for, that's not the case for Arsenal: qualification for the Champions League is still in their hands. The Gunners have been absent from European’s most prestigious competition for six years, but are currently sitting in fourth just a point above their bitter rivals Tottenham.
Arsenal’s top-four hopes were dented in midweek after losing 3-0 to Spurs. But while this derby day defeat was damaging, it hasn't knocked them completely off course; victory in their remaining two fixtures will see them claim a spot in the Champions League whatever happens elsewhere.
Here's how they line up:
Newcastle: Dúbravka, Krafth, Schär, Burn, Targett, S Longstaff, Guimarães, Joelinton, Almirón, Wilson, Saint-Maximin
Arsenal: Ramsdale, Tomiyasu, White, Gabriel, Tavares, Elneny, Xhaka, Saka, Ødegaard, Smith Rowe, Nketiah

The Newcastle vs Arsenal live stream will be shown on many different channels across the world, but what if you're not in your home country and want to watch it on your usual service?

1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, ExpressVPN is our favorite.
2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance if you're in the U.K. and want to view a U.S. service, you'd select U.S. from the list.
3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to Sling or another service and watch the game.

If you don't want to shell out for a full Sky sub, you could also consider its Now Sports streaming service. This gives you 24-hour access for £9.99 or month-long access for £33.99 but once again, Sky is currently offering a great deal here: you can sign up for six months of access for just £20/month right now.

How to watch the Newcastle vs Arsenal live stream in Canada
Canadians can watch the Newcastle vs Arsenal live stream on DAZN.
Sadly, DAZN no longer offers new customers a 30-day free-trial period, so you'll have to pay the $20 CAD per month fee, although you can save a little by buying annually ($150 CAD). DAZN, if you're unfamiliar, has apps on every single streaming platform there is.
Canadians stuck abroad that still want their low-price alternative can use a VPN such as ExpressVPN to trick their streaming device into thinking it's back in the great white north.
