Arsenal aims to recover from Champions League disappointment against Newcastle in Premier League

Arsenal will host Newcastle in the Premier League as they aim to recover from their recent disappointment in the Champions League. Mikel Arteta's team suffered a 1-0 defeat to Porto in the first leg of their last-16 tie, with Galeno scoring the winning goal in the dying minutes. This loss comes after Arsenal's impressive run of five consecutive wins in the Premier League. Despite this setback, a victory against Newcastle would put them just two points behind the league leaders. However, Eddie Howe's side has proven to be a challenging opponent for Arsenal in recent seasons. They handed the Gunners their first Premier League defeat of the season in November and held them to a goalless draw last year. Newcastle will need to improve defensively, having conceded 18 goals in their last five league matches.
