Crystal Palace

  • Kagisho Dikgacoi could return to the heart of the Palace midfield to add a bit more bite to a side that collapsed against Fulham last time out.
  • Marouane Chamakh could start against his former club after missing out last week.
  • Yannick Bolasie impressed on his first start of the season and is likely to retain a starting berth.
  • Arsenal
  • Jack Wilshere is a doubt after suffering yet another ankle injury in the midweek Champions League defeat to Borussia Dortmund.
  • Mathieu Flamini missed that match after sustaining a head injury against Norwich last week, but he should be back for the trip to Selhurst Park.
  • Theo Walcott is expected to be out for another two or three weeks.

Prediction

  • Crystal Palace continued their terrible run of form against Fulham last time out, falling to a 4-1 loss after having taken the lead against their London rivals, and will be likely to make it 6 losses in a row here.
  • Arsenal tasted defeat for only the second time this season when Borussia Dortmund snatched a win at the Emirates in the week, but they have a fantastic chance to restore any lost confidence against a below par Palace team.
  • Few will expect anything other than a comprehensive away victory, with Ozil, Cazorla and Ramsey far too good for their opponents once again.
