Newcastle United welcome UEFA Champions League hopefuls Arsenal in the sides? last fixture of the 2012/2013 season on Sunday afternoon.
The Tyneside club secured safety with a 2-1 win over already relegated Queens Park Rangers over the course of the weekend.
The Gunners, on the other hand, didn?t play on the weekend due to Wigan Athletic?s FA Cup commitments.
The Magpies will be eager to end a disappointing season on a high while the North London club will need a victory to secure their spot in next season?s UEFA Champions League.
Newcastle currently occupy 13th position on the log while Arsenal dropped to fifth after Tottenham Hotspur came from behind to beat Stoke City on Sunday.
The reverse fixture in December last year ended in an emphatic 7-3 victory for the Gunners.
Theo Walcott bagged a hat-trick, Olivier Giroud a brace, while Lukas Podolski and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain chipped in with a goal apiece.
Newcastle United?s goals were scored by Sylvain Marveaux and Demba Ba, who netted twice. The game was notably the now-Chelsea forward?s last game for Newcastle.
