Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta will be hoping to forget the 3-1 defeat to West Ham in the Carabao Cup as quickly as possible ahead of this weekend’s game versus Newcastle.

The Magpies are in confident mood, having won against Manchester United at Old Trafford midweek. Eddie Howe’s men have lost just once in their last 11 matches across all competitions.
