Arsenal and Newcastle renew hostilities in the Premier League this evening, in a must-win fixture for both teams.
The Gunners have lost back-to-back league games against Bournemouth and Manchester City since the international break, and now find themselves second in the table.
Despite being locked on the same number of points and goal difference as Man City, Arsenal have been knocked off the Premier League summit - for the first time since October - by virtue of scoring three fewer goals.
With City in FA Cup semi-final action this weekend, Mikel Arteta’s side have the chance to move three points clear as the start of a five-game sprint for the title begins at the Emirates Stadium.
Newcastle, though, arrive in north London with every intention of spoiling the party as they seek to get their pursuit of a European place back on track.
Eddie Howe’s side have lost their last three league games in a row, but given how tight things are from sixth to 14th, a first win at the Emirates (in the league) since November 2010 will keep them right in contention for a Conference League spot at minimum.
