Arsenal have been handed a big boost with Newcastle United winger Anthony Gordon ruled out of the Premier League clash at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday.
The Gunners face the Magpies in front of their fans tomorrow, and they must secure a win to return to the top of the table with a three-point lead over Manchester City.
Ahead of the encounter, they have received a timely boost with some key players missing from the opposition tomorrow.
Anthony Gordon has a nagging hip issue, and the England international has been ruled out of the game in north London.
Gordon has had a fine campaign for the Magpies with 17 goals and five assists. He will be a big miss for the visitors.
Alongside him, right-back Tino Livramento has been sidelined with a thigh issue, while Joelinton is suspended for the match.
Joelinton has been a key player in the heart of the midfield with his physicality and his absence is another major boost.
