After their 10-game unbeaten run in all tournaments came to a bitter end at Anfield, Arsenal will aim to return to winning ways during Saturday's Premier League lunchtime battle with Newcastle United.
The Gunners went down 4-0 to Liverpool last time out, while the Eddie Howe reign at Newcastle began with a thrilling 3-3 stalemate against Brentford.
We say: Arsenal 3-1 Newcastle United
Goals are there to be had at the Emirates on Saturday, as Newcastle are always threatening when Saint-Maximin is on the ball, but their abysmal defensive record speaks for itself.
Arsenal have consistently produced in front of their own supporters this season, and with or without Howe in the dugout, we cannot see the winless Magpies springing any surprises here.

Aston Villa will be looking to make it back-to-back Premier League wins under new head coach Steven Gerrard when they travel to Crystal Palace on Saturday afternoon.
Gerrard led his side to a 2-0 home victory over Brighton & Hove Albion last weekend, while Palace will enter the contest off the back of a pulsating 3-3 draw with Burnley at Turf Moor.
We say: Crystal Palace 2-2 Aston Villa
This fixture produced goals last season - eight in two matches - and we are predicting another open match on Saturday afternoon. Both teams have a lot of talent in the forward areas, and we can see the points being shared in an entertaining 2-2 draw here.

After seeing off Porto with professionalism in the Champions League, Liverpool return to Anfield for Saturday's Premier League visit of Southampton.
The Reds' most recent top-flight game saw them teach Arsenal a footballing lesson in a 4-0 success, while the Saints went down 2-1 to Norwich City.
We say: Liverpool 3-0 Southampton
Southampton will boast the fresher legs this week, but Klopp had the luxury of resting many of his big-hitters in midweek, and we can only envisage one outcome here.
The Reds were scintillating in their second-half display against the Gunners and should have no trouble replicating such a goal-laden display at their fortress, so a comfortable home win is surely on the cards.

Norwich City will be looking to make it three Premier League victories in a row when they welcome Wolverhampton Wanderers to Carrow Road on Saturday afternoon.
The Canaries have moved off the bottom of the table with back-to-back wins, while Wolves have risen into sixth position courtesy of an impressive run of form in England's top flight.
We say: Norwich City 1-2 Wolverhampton Wanderers
Norwich have a new-found confidence after back-to-back wins, but Wolves have been so impressive in recent weeks, and we are finding it difficult to back anything other than an away success, with the visitors certainly a team to watch when it comes to a potential top-four challenge.

Both Brighton & Hove Albion and Leeds United will be looking to return to winning ways in the Premier League when they lock horns in East Sussex on Saturday afternoon.

We say: Brighton & Hove Albion 2-2 Leeds United
This has all of the makings of a very open and entertaining game of football, and we are predicting goals on Saturday afternoon. Both sides will believe that they can hurt the other in the forward areas, but we are struggling to separate them and have had to settle on an entertaining score draw.
