Arsenal's Premier League clash against Newcastle United could ultimately be settled by the finest of details and Mikel Arteta can lean on a familiar plan to ensure his side boost their top-four hopes.
In preparing for the clash under the lights at St James' Park, the Spaniard may have watched some tapes of the Magpies' 5-0 thrashing at the hands of Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium last weekend. In particular, the goals scored by Aymeric Laporte and Rodri either side of half-time.
On both occasions, it was a corner routine that proved to be Newcastle's undoing with Laporte reacting quickest to Martin Dubravka's failure to hold on to Ilkay Gundogan's effort from outside the area before Rodri met Kevin De Bruyne's delivery at the near post to make it 3-0.
