The Premier League weekend comes to a close on Monday evening as Arsenal host Newcastle.
Rafa Benitez takes his side to the Emirates knowing his side have probably already done enough to be dragged into the relegation battle, but they will want to finish their season on a high – like they did last term.
Arsenal are very much in need of the three points as they continue their battle to clinch a top-four spot.
See below for a preview on the game, including predictions from former England, Crystal Palace and Tottenham midfielder Andy Gray and our own Football Insider Graeme Bailey and bet365’s Steve Freeth.
