The Magpies are in a great position as they hold a two-goal advantage over the Gunners ahead of the second leg. This has seen the supercomputer give the team a 77.8 per cent chance of reaching the final. As a result, Arsenal have been put down as the least likely to reach the final, let alone win the competition at just 15.2 per cent.
