The Premier League returns to the fold with another set of matches this weekend as Newcastle United lock horns with Mikel Arteta's Arsenal side in an important encounter at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday. Both teams have done decently in the league this season.
Arsenal vs Newcastle United Preview
Arsenal are in second place in the Premier League standings and have been in impressive form this season. The Gunners were held to a disappointing 2-2 draw by Liverpool in their previous game and will need to perform better if they wish to get something out of this fixture.
Newcastle United, on the other hand, are in third place in the league table and have been in excellent form this season. The Magpies eased past Chelsea by a comfortable 2-0 scoreline in their previous game and will look to finish the season on a high with a win over the Gunners.
