Arsenal vs Crystal Palace

Arsenal had steadied their ship before the international break, winning three and drawing against Brighton. Securing 10 points out of a possible 12 is seen as progress, and Mikel Arteta would want to build on this momentum when they face Crystal Palace at the Emirates on Monday night.

Despite showing immense promise in their play style, Crystal Palace only have a solitary win to show for their cause. They suffered two losses to Chelsea and Liverpool while securing impressive draws with Brighton, Brentford, West Ham United and Leicester. It’s how those draws transpired that impresses Palace fans the most.

There is optimism about getting a positive result at the Emirates, as Vieira will be hoping to exploit the Gunners’ weaknesses. A win will certainly highlight the progress made under Vieira, while a loss would bring them back to the drawing board for further assessment.

Arsenal vs Crystal Palace team news

Mikel Arteta has the luxury of a near fully-fit squad to pick from.

Granit Xhaka is the only major absentee as he is still recovering from a knee injury picked up last month. Gabriel Martinelli is also a doubt after picking up an unspecified injury last week, but he was unlikely to start anyway.

Arteta could well name the same side who drew 0-0 with Brighton before the international break.

Vieira has a selection dilemma in attack. Michael Olise’s impressive turn off the bench against Leicester last time out could see the youngster thrown into the starting XI for the first time.
