Arsenal vs Newcastle Team News

Arsenal team news

Team to play Newcastle: Raya, White, Saliba, Gabriel, Kiwior, Rice, Odegaard, Jorginho, Saka, Havertz, Martinelli.

Subs: Ramsdale, Cedric, Elneny, Vieira, Nelson, Smith Rowe, Trossard, Nketiah, Jesus.

Arsenal's Jurrien Timber is still out for the long haul, and Arteta might contemplate bringing in Jorginho and Emile Smith Rowe to reload his midfield if more legs are needed.

Although Arteta continues to be extremely secretive about each player's status, Gabriel Jesus (knee), Takehiro Tomiyasu (knock), and Oleksandr Zinchenko (calf) were also missing from the loss to Porto. However, given the short turnaround, it is unlikely that any of them will make a return on Saturday.

Fabio Vieira, who missed three months of action due to a groin injury, was added to the matchday squad for Arsenal's midweek trip to Portugal. However, Thomas Partey, who also resumed team training after a thigh operation, was left off the squad for the first leg.

Team to play Arsenal: Karius, Trippier, Schar, Botman, Livramento, Guimaraes, Longstaff, Miley, Almiron, Gordon, Isak.

Subs: Gillespie, Lascelles, Ritchie, Barnes, Krafth, Hall, J. Murphy, Willock, Burn.

Alex Isak is expected to be chosen in Howe's matchday squad, and Joe Willock, who hasn't played since November, is about to make his much anticipated return this weekend against his old team.

However, Newcastle is still missing Elliott Anderson, Joelinton, Callum Wilson, and Nick Pope. If Isak is only able to make the bench, Anthony Gordon will start at the top.

Fabian Schar's wrist injury from last weekend's 2-2 draw with Bournemouth will not stop him from playing in this match on Saturday.
