Newcastle v Arsenal: How to watch Premier League on TV and live stream
Newcastle and Arsenal go head-to-head in the Premier League this weekend
Arsenal kick off their 2019/20 Premier League campaign with a trek to Newcastle – but their new signings may not be heavily involved just yet.
The Gunners started quietly in the transfer market before exploding into action with a string of high-profile deals.
Winger Nicolas Pepe – who signed for £72m – is not expected to start the opening game due to a minor knock, while deadline day duo Kieran Tierney and David Luiz may also be sidelined.
Former Celtic left-back Tierney is struggling with an injury problem while Saturday may come too soon for Luiz who has only just linked up with his new team-mates.
Newcastle experienced a similar transfer window as they started with a whimper and ended with a bang.

Who will win? RadioTimes.com says…
Without Pepe, Luiz and Tierney, expect a familiar Arsenal side to be deployed.
They ended last season in a rough patch, and not a great deal will have changed for the opening weekend of 2019/20.
The Newcastle squad will be well up for their curtain-raising clash after a highly-charged summer away from the field.
For all Bruce's credentials as a boss are under heavy scrutiny, this is a massive occasion for him and the players will have warmed to the Geordie gaffer. They will dig deep for their new boss and have a shot at claiming a point in front of their home fans.
Prediction: Newcastle 1-1 Arsenal
