Arsenal v Newcastle United – Confirmed lineups – Wenger makes changes to starting XI

Arsenal can move back into the top-four today with a win over an out-of-formĀ  Newcastle United.

The Gunners host the Magpies at the Emirates stadium, kick-off is scheduled for 15:00 (GMT).

Arsenal are in much-need of three points after failing to secure a win in their last three games. Arsene Wenger’s side were held to a 0-0 draw by Newcastle United earlier this week.

Germany international Mesut Ozil has kept his side in Wenger’s starting 11. The 28-year-old has continued to be linked with a move away from the north London based side after failing to pen a new contract.

Wenger has also recalled Alexandre Lacazette to the starting lineup after he was dropped for the mid-week clash. Meanwhile, Granit Xhaka has come in place of an injured Aaron Ramsey.
