Arsenal v Newcastle team news: Dubravka ill, Isak returns

24 February 2024 704 comments

Skonto Rigga

The late, late kick-off tonight is a bit of a grudge match following the events on Tyneside in November.

Newcastle United were narrow victors over Arsenal in Gameweek 11, with the controversial nature of the Magpies’ winner precipitating an angry outburst from Mikel Arteta.

The two sides get to do it all again this evening at the Emirates in a 20:00 GMT kick-off.

Arteta had named the same team in the last three league and cup matches but he makes one change to his side from the defeat to Porto in midweek.

Jorginho comes in for the benched Leandro Trossard, with Kai Havertz moving up front.

The fit-again Gabriel Jesus is among the substitutes but Oleksandr Zinchenko, Takehiro Tomiyasu and Thomas Partey are again absent.

Eddie Howe makes three changes to the Newcastle side that began the 2-2 draw with Bournemouth last weekend.

Loris Karius replaces the absent Martin Dubravka, with the Slovak unavailable due to illness.

Tino Livramento and an injury-free Alexander Isak are recalled for the benched Dan Burn and Harvey Barnes.

GAMEWEEK 26 LINE-UPS

Arsenal XI: Raya, White, Saliba, Gabriel, Kiwior, Odegaard, Rice, Jorginho, Havertz, Saka, Martinelli.

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

Newcastle United XI: Karius, Trippier, Schar, Botman, Livramento, Longstaff, Guimaraes, Miley, Gordon, Almiron, Isak.

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

The two CS wipeouts (3 for me due to double arsenal defence) was gut wrenching, would've been 14-16 points better off

Took a 36 point hit, proceeded to gain 40 points with three more to go.

After I trashed my team over the last 6 weeks, wasted a WC and BB you can't make this up.

      I see, unlucky. But you can only expect that with such a massive hit. There was a guy here once a few season backs and he actually took a -8 every weeke for like fifteen weeks and went from like 2mil to 20k. It was like he could see the future lol, insane luck. But most hits probably end on failure in reality

        Yeah for sure. It's just ironic, terrible decisions/luck for weeks then a sizable hit which is really a joke, pays dividends.

        Kind of same here. I have been floating like a turd round 100-200k for all season. Last 6 weeks or so, although I planned things well, just had awful results. My micro decisions have been bad I think, my macro decisions were good. Stuck at 500k now and another very bad week

        Taking out Palmer, Saka, Watkins has been my biggest downfall I'd say.

Had double Arsenal defence all season and it feels like I'm unlucky not to have several more clean sheets from them.

So often conceding one from the oppositions only real chance, compare to City's clean sheet today for example

I don’t understand why the safety score is so high? I thought loads would be on hits and it’s not been an amazing week points wise with Haaland not hauling. I’m on 31, bad sure, but my safety score is like 45 or higher?
What players do these people own lol
