Arsenal vs Newcastle Team News
Arsenal have concerns on the frontline with Ethan Nwaneri joining Raheem Sterling and Bukayo Saka on the sidelines, with Gabriel Martinelli potentially deputising on the right flank. Ben White and Takehiro Tomiyasu also miss out, while Neto is ineligible. Kai Havertz is a doubt having missed meetings with Brentford and Brighton due to illness.
Sven Botman made his first appearance in almost a year at the weekend, though may not be risked here. With Fabian Schar suspended, Lloyd Kelly could partner Dan Burn at the heart of the defence. Bruno Guimaraes is also banned for the visitors. Emil Krafth, Nick Pope, Jamaal Lascelles and Callum Wilson are all injured.

Arsenal vs Newcastle Score Prediction
Arsenal have won 11 of their last 13 home meetings with Newcastle and are unbeaten at the Emirates this season, winning 11 times. The welcome of the in-form Magpies, who have won six on the spin, will be no walk in the park, but this is a game the Gunners may just edge 2-1.
