Arsenal is hopeful two key players could be back from injury this week

Arsenal will be aiming to return to winning ways when they face Newcastle United in the Premier League in a few days. The upcoming fixture has taken on added importance following a difficult run of results for Mikel Arteta’s side.

Defeat to Manchester City at the weekend means the Gunners have now suffered back-to-back league losses, dropping six points that may prove significant in the title race. After spending much of the season in a strong position, Arsenal now find themselves under increased pressure.

Arsenal Receive Timely Fitness Boost

The Gunners could fall behind City on goal difference if the reigning champions defeat Burnley tonight. That possibility increases the importance of Arsenal responding immediately when they next take to the pitch.

Despite the setback, Arteta’s squad remain confident they can still become champions. Belief within the camp is said to remain strong, with the players aware that the title race is still within their control if they can regain momentum quickly.

According to Standard Sport, Arsenal have been handed a double fitness boost ahead of the Newcastle United match, with Bukayo Saka and Jurrien Timber set to return to full fitness for the contest.
