[CONFIRMED] Lineup v Newcastle: Debuchy asked to deliver against former club

Arsenal-Newcastle
Barclays Premier League
Emirates Stadium
Kick off: December 13th, 2014 1730 GMT

Debuchy starting as center back, quite a bit of the focus will be on him today; Bellerin gets another Premier League game as well.

In the midfield, it looks like Wenger has decided to play a 4-1-4-1, with Flamini as the holding midfielder. Up front, it is Cazorla, the Ox, Sanchez and Welbeck in an extremely pacy attacking line. Giroud starts up front as the lone striker.

Podolski starts on the bench. I’ve officially given up hope of ever seeing him start a Premier League game again.
