"Martin Odegaard's Absence and Injury Concerns Overshadow Newcastle vs Arsenal Clash"
Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard has been left out of the matchday squad to face Newcastle United due to a slight hip issue, according to manager Mikel Arteta. Odegaard returned as a substitute in the Carabao Cup match against West Ham but has now been omitted from the squad. Arsenal already has several injury concerns, and Arteta had hoped for Odegaard's return to training this week. The Gunners can move above Tottenham in the table with a win against Newcastle.
