Newcastle United head to the Emirates Stadium in search for a win to stay in touch with the Gunners in the title race.
That's a line you never expected to be reading this time last year, but that just shows how far the Magpies have come in a short space of time under Eddie Howe. The former AFC Bournemouth boss admitted that he felt disappointed to only have drawn against Leeds on New Year's Eve.
It was a result that left Newcastle nine points behind the Gunners after Mikel Arteta's men won 4-2 at Brighton & Hove Albion to see the year out with a victory.
