Against Manchester City, it was the familiar back five of David Raya in goal, with a back four of Jurrien Timber, Riccardo Calafiori, Gabriel Magalhaes, and William Saliba.<\/p>\n<p><b>Read More<\/b>: <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2025\/09\/04\/best-arsenal-players-number-14-jersey\/\" target=\"_self\">Best Arsenal Players to Wear the Number 14 Jersey Ever<\/a><\/p>\n<p>In midfield, Mikel Merino, Martin Zubimendi, and Declan Rice all started the game, with Noni Madueke and Leandro Trossard out wide. Summer signing Viktor Gyokeres started in attack.<\/p>\n<p>There were a number of changes <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2025\/09\/24\/port-vale-vs-arsenal-confirmed-lineups-september-24\/\" target=\"_self\">against Port Vale<\/a> as expected, with Kepa, Bukayo Saka, and Christian Norgaard all starting.<\/p>\n<h3>Arsenal Recent Form and Tactics<\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s largely been a positive start for Arsenal this season. Despite the narrow defeat to Liverpool and the draw to Manchester City, it\u2019s been a good start. Martin Zubimendi has slotted into Arteta\u2019s team with ease and impressed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2025\/09\/04\/best-arsenal-players-number-14-jersey\/\" target=\"_self\">Best Arsenal Players to Wear the Number 14 Jersey Ever<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Gyokeres has scored goals, but it feels there\u2019s more to come from the Swedish striker, and he will get plenty of chances in this team. Eze will be pleased with his smart goal against Port Vale and will be eager to kick on and become a permanent fixture for Arteta. The 1-1 draw with City was the least the Gunners deserved, and they will be eager to stay in touch with Liverpool and not let them build an early lead. It\u2019s been a positive start, but plenty of room for improvement.<\/p>\n<h3>Injuries and Absentees to Consider<\/h3>\n<p>In the <a  href=\"https:\/\/www.arsenal.com\/news\/every-word-mikel-artetas-pre-newcastle-presser\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pre-match press conference<\/a>, Arteta discussed the availability of Martin Odegaard: \u201cMartin will be training with us the next two days so hopefully he&#8217;ll be available for the game.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Speaking on Saka\u2019s fitness, he said: \u201cYeah, nothing to report there. I think he&#8217;s played the games that we anticipated, he did well, he feels good and he will be training the next few days.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Clarifying the Noni Madueke injury and if there was any news regarding a scan, Arteta said: \u201cNo, not yet.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Arsenal vs Newcastle: How to Watch<\/h3>\n<div>Newcastle vs Arsenal at St James\u2019 Park will be shown live on Sky Sports in the UK.
