Arsenal vs Newcastle - Torreira banned for Gunners
Posted Friday, March 29, 2019 by PA
Arsenal will be without the suspended Lucas Torreira for the visit of Newcastle to the Emirates Stadium on Monday night.
Aaron Ramsey is expected to be passed fit, having been troubled by his left thigh, as is Nacho Monreal, who has returned to training after hurting his right calf.
Granit Xhaka also faces a late fitness test on a muscle injury but striker Danny Welbeck is out with an ankle injury, while knee issues continue to sideline Hector Bellerin and Rob Holding.
Fabian Schar will miss out for Newcastle through suspension.
The central defender completes the second game of a two-match ban after reaching 10 bookings for the season, but would almost certainly have sat out anyway after being knocked unconscious in a clash of heads during Switzerland’s 2-0 Euro 2020 qualifying win over Georgia last Saturday.
Skipper Jamaal Lascelles has recovered from the knee problem which kept him out of the 2-2 draw at Bournemouth last time out, leaving only Sean Longstaff (knee) on the sidelines.
