Predicted Arsenal lineup vs Newcastle United

Arsenal are scheduled to host Newcastle United in the Premier League on Monday night.

The north London giants are unbeaten in the previous four league games where they have picked up 10 points.

They have the chance to jump into the top half of the table with a win over Steve Bruce's side tomorrow.

Formation: 4-2-3-1

Predicted Lineup:

Bernd Leno has been an automatic choice for the goalkeeping role in the Premier League. He is expected to start between the sticks. In the defence, a few changes could be on the cards. At left-back, Kieran Tierney may replace Ainsley Maitland-Niles after returning to training after a minor calf issue.

At the heart of the backline, David Luiz could drop to the bench for the return of Gabriel Magalhaes. The Brazilian has been out of action for a number of weeks after contracting the coronavirus.

Granit Xhaka and Dani Ceballos were impressive in the midfield against Crystal Palace and the former stood out with crucial tackles. With Thomas Partey now fit, Ceballos could make way from the starting XI.

Further forward, no changes are expected. Gabriel Martinelli has returned to full training after a minor ankle issue, but he may feature from the bench with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang continuing on the left wing.

Predicted Arsenal lineup: Bernd Leno; Hector Bellerin, Rob Holding, Gabriel Magalhaes, Kieran Tierney; Granit Xhaka, Thomas Partey; Bukayo Saka, Emile Smith Rowe, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Alexandre Lacazette.
