Jorginho To Start; Leandro Trossard And Thomas Partey On The Bench: Arsenal’s Predicted XI To Face Newcastle

Arsenal were dealt a sucker punch with Porto’s late goal in the Champions League on Wednesday evening.

A 1-0 defeat is not disastrous but they have work to do in the second leg. In the meantime, the Gunners’ focus will have to return to the Premier League as they face Newcastle this weekend.


With only a few days to recover, taking on the Magpies won’t be a straightforward task. However, Eddie Howe’s side have been rather inconsistent this season so Arteta’s men will still be favourites for the three points.
