Premier League match time is here again with Arsenal hosting Newcastle United on Sunday in matchday eleven.

Arsenal won 3-0 away to Newcastle in the Carling Cup last week, and they expect more of the same when the Geordies visit the Emirates. For the Gunners, Theo Walcott scored a brace in the Carling Cup game against the Geordies and could once again be the dangerous man for Chris Hughton’s charges on Sunday.

In match week ten, the Gunners were lucky to pick up a full three points against West Ham as the Hammers held on for the better part of 88 minutes, until Song headed Gael Clichy past Green into the West Ham net. . Arsenal created many chances in the game without taking advantage of them. Arshavin had a couple of early runs down the left flank. Later, the Russian fired a cross only to see Song go head over the bar.

Another great scoring chance was lost when a free-kick was awarded after Boa Morte pushed Denilson, but Nasri’s shot, though it went past Green, hit the crossbar. -line.

A midweek loss to Ukrainian club Shakhtar Donetsk should have brought Arsenal back to earth, and they would need a disciplined effort to ensure they pick up three points from the Magpies’ game.

Newcastle have bounced back from their last loss to Arsenal with a 5-1 thrashing of Sunderland on matchday ten. Victory came thanks to captain Nolan’s hat-trick. Ameobi scored the other two goals for the Geordies, including a penalty. Before the game, Sunderland had conceded just seven goals – this season in the Premier League, the fewest apart from Chelsea – but the Magpies’ rampage left the team in tatters. defense of the Black Cats.

Newcastle went on the attack from the opening whistle and Nolan opened his account on a Barton corner, but only after Sunderland goalkeeper Mignolet saved an effort from Carroll.

Although the Gunners are the bookmakers’ favorites to win at home on Sunday, the match could swing one way or the other depending on which side the forwards draw first blood on.

For Newcastle, Sol Campbell could return against his former team, after being sidelined for a month with knee and thigh injuries; Campbell could be subjected to a late test by Hughton.

In addition to Campbell, Newcastle have injury concerns for Harper, Ben Arfa, Best and Gosling. Arsenal’s list of injured players is much longer and includes Diaby, Ramsey, Vermaelen, Frimpong, Van Persie, Gibbs and Almunia.

Arsenal’s starting eleven against West Ham consisted of Fabianski, Sagna, Squillaci, Koscielny, Clichy, Song, Denilson, Nasri, Fabregas, Arshavin, Chamakh Bendtner, Walcott and Eboue were listed as substitutes.
