Arsenal return to the Emirates Stadium to host Crystal Palace in Premier League action. The Gunners are enjoying a great run of wins, winning all their last four games in all competitions.

Its very important that we continue to pick up points so that we climb up the table. Arteta will not look to change much and will probably go with the same team that played against West Brom last week.

STARTING 11

Bernd Leno will continue in goal, he show us once again last weekend why he is the number one goalkeeper.

Gabriel is back in training and there could be a case for him to start as Mari is coming back from a long term injury and has played a lot of minutes of late. But Arteta will not see anything wrong with the shape of the current back four so we predict that Mari and Holding will keep their places. Bellerin and Tierney will continue in the full-back positions.

Ceballos was rested in the FA Cup game against Newcastle and would probably start this game next to Xhaka. Thomas Partey is back from an injury that kept him out for almost two months. Arteta will not try and rush him so that he can pick up full fitness and be important for us for the remainder of the season. He could make an appearance from the bench though. Emile Smith Rowe has been excellent in the number 10 position and is expected to continue his great form there. Willian failed the test and Willock does not give us enough as he does in the Europa League games.

Gabriel Martinelli suffered yet again another injury set back and there could be a case that he wont be involved at all. We predict that Arteta will go with the front three of Saka, Aubameyang and Lacazette. Pepe had a fairly decent game against Newcastle and could make an appearance from the bench. Willian appears to be Arteta’s favorite and could possibly make the starting 11 even though he had a terrible game last weekend.
