Team News: Arsenal unchanged for Newcastle United clash

Arsenal unchanged for Newcastle clash

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has named an unchanged side for tonight's Premier League meeting with Newcastle United at the Emirates.

The Gunners triumphed 3-0 over FA Cup final opponents Hull City last weekend and Wenger has chosen not to change a winning formula as he sticks with the same XI.

That means that fit-again Aaron Ramsey gets another start in midfield, as does Mesut Ozil, who was taken off after just over an hour in the win at the KC Stadium.

Newcastle, meanwhile, make three changes to the side that fell to a 2-1 defeat at the hands of Swansea City last weekend as they look to end a run of five losses in a row.

Loic Remy returns to a Magpies side that has only scored once in their last five matches, while Mathieu Debuchy and Moussa Sissoko are also included.

Arsenal: Szczesny; Sagna, Mertesacker, Koscielny, Monreal; Arteta, Ramsey, Ozil; Cazorla, Podolski, Giroud Subs: Fabianski, Jenkinson, Vermaelen, Kallstrom, Flamini, Rosicky, Sanogo

Newcastle: Krul; Debuchy, Williamson, Coloccini, Dummett; Gosling, Anita, Tiote, Gouffran; Sissoko; Remy Subs: Elliot, Haidara, Yanga-Mbiwa, S Taylor, Obertan, Armstrong, Shola Ameobi
