The Gunners host the Magpies in a match valid for the 26th round of the Premier League to continue in the hunt for the leader
Arsenal and Newcastle will face each other this Saturday (24th), at 5pm, in a match valid for the 26th round of the Premier League. In the fight for leadership, the Gunners want to take advantage of the support of their fans at the Emirates Stadium to continue the hunt for leaders Liverpool.
How Arsenal arrive
In the fight for the leadership of the Premier League, Arsenal are in third place, with 55 points, five less than leaders Liverpool, who have already won their match in this round. Furthermore, in the team’s final match in the English Championship, the Gunners overwhelmed Burnley with a 5-0 victory.
However, the team is coming off a stumble in the round of 16 of the Champions League. Last Wednesday (21st), Arsenal visited Porto at the Estádio do Dragão and suffered a 1-0 defeat which ended a run of five victories during the season.
The good news for manager Mikel Arteta is the return of Fabio Vieira. However, the team is still missing Gabriel Jesus, Takehiro Tomiyasu, Jurrien Timber and Oleksandr Zinchenko, all injured.
How Newcastle arrives
On the other hand, Newcastle have not had a great start in the Premier League, but they are recovering. The team is in eighth place with 37 points, 10 less than Tottenham, the first team in the table for the next European competitions.
The good news is that striker Alexander Isak has recovered from a muscle problem and is available to the coach. However, the team continues with the important loss of Callum Wilson, injured.
