Mikel
Arteta’s
side
saw
their
eight-game
unbeaten
league
run
end
at
Liverpool
last
weekend,
while
Newcastle,
with
Eddie
Howe
in
the
dugout
for
the
first
time,
were
the
only
winless
team
in
England’s
top
four
tiers
after
12
games.
Jonjo
Shelvey
and
Pierre-Emerick
Aubameyang
both
struck
the
woodwork
in
the
first
half
at
Emirates
Stadium
before
Saka
eventually
broke
the
deadlock
after
56
minutes.

Substitute
Martinelli
added
a
second
just

as
Arsenal
moved
level
on
points
with
fourth-placed
West
Ham,
who
play
Manchester
City
on
Sunday.

FIXTURES
Saka
poked
narrowly
wide
and
Martin
Dubravka
excellently
parried
away
Martin
Odegaard’s
free-kick
as
the
hosts
looked
to
score
first
for
the
17th
consecutive
top-flight
meeting
with
Newcastle.
Aaron
Ramsdale
then
pushed
Shelvey’s
long-range
attempt
onto
the
crossbar
before
Aubameyang
inexplicably
hit
the
right-hand
post
from
point-blank
range
following
Emile
Smith
Rowe’s
saved
header.
Saka’s
low
drive
was
denied
by
Dubravka
after
the
interval,
though
there
was
no
stopping
the
20-year-old
when
he
drilled
into
the
bottom-right
corner
after
Nuno
Tavares’ offload.
Martinelli,
who
replaced
Saka,
doubled
the
damage
10
minutes
later
with
a
volley
past
the
incoming
Dubravka
from
Takehiro
Tomiyasu’s
chipped
pass.
Substitute
Jacob
Murphy
looked
to
respond
but
prodded
wide
as
Arsenal
continued
their
22-game
unbeaten
run
against
sides
starting
the
day
bottom
of
the
table.
