Arsenal head to Newcastle United on bank holiday Sunday in the sixth match of Gameweek 35.

Both teams enjoyed 3-1 wins in their most recent games, beating Chelsea and Southampton respectively.

Eddie Howe makes just one change to his Newcastle starting XI, with Callum Wilson coming in for Anthony Gordon, who drops to the bench.

That means Wilson and Alexander Isak start together for the first time in the Premier League, an intriguing development with Double Gameweek 36 on the horizon.

As for Arsenal, Gabriel Magalhaes is fit to start despite taking a knock in midweek, with Mikel Arteta’s only alteration seeing Gabriel Martinelli replace Leandro Trossard.

    Isak looking bad and should be hooked. Smarter thing though would be to play him central and sub Wilson

      Pope literally can't use his feet, England dominate most games.

      Ramsdale loves a clanger.

      Pickford has never let England down.

      Pickford is always good in an England shirt. In the England appearances the other two were given recently, both looked shaky.

      Dont think Pope would be nearly as good in the team. Ramsdale better but still makes mistakes.

    With Newcastle behind, I hope they take off Willock and bring on Almiron or Longstaff. If Longstaff, then you push Bruno Guimaraes higher up the pitch into a more attacking role.

      Longstaff is injured. Bruno is our CDM and only Joelinton could drop back there. I expect ASM and Miggy to come on at some point to replace Murphy and maybe Wilson.

      He brings them both on when he needs a win and Isak often sets Wilson up.

      Doubt he takes one off before the hour.
