Arsenal boss expecting another tight Newcastle contest

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger believes this weekend's clash with Newcastle United will be another classic.

?The Gunners and Magpies have been involved in a number of tight clashes in recent times and the Frenchman suggests the St James' Park meeting on Saturday will be no different.

?"We have good memories at Newcastle but they are always very tight, very difficult games," said Wenger.

?"They are in a position where they are not under threat to go down. They always have a very motivated crowd and they always play well against us, which makes it a tight game."?
