This is the second straight time Mikel Arteta's men are beating a big team following their 2-1 victory over Premier League champions Liverpool on Wednesday, July 15.

Meanwhile, the Emirates Stadium outfit will battle the winner of Manchester United and Chelsea for the oldest cup in England.

The Gunners proved they wanted the victory more than their opponents after firing four shots on target with two of them achieving its purpose.

Arsenal reached the last four stage after beating Sheffield United 2-1 in late June while Pep Guardiola's men outshine Newcastle in their encounter.

The North Londoners remain the most successful team in the history of the championship with 13 titles and if they win the 2020 edition, they would have increased their tally to 14.
