Crystal Palace v Arsenal – Match preview

|

Who We’d Like To Sign

Yohan Cabaye. The Frenchman’s technical ability and set-piece plays are something to admire.

Man In The Middle:

Lee Mason. Officiated just two Arsenal games last season, in both the Gunners won. Has brandished six yellow cards already.

Likely Line-ups:

Arsenal:

Cech

Bellerin         Mertesacker         Koscielny         Monreal

Coquelin         Cazorla

Sanchez         Ozil          Chamberlain

Giroud

Crystal Palace:

McCarthy

Ward         Dann         Delaney         Souare

Mutch         Jedinak         Cabaye

Puncheon                                                 Zaha

Murray

Prediction:

Arsenal slumped to a disappointing defeat at the hands of West Ham last weekend, while Palace bagged all three points at Norwich. This one will be tough to call, but I think the Gunners have something to prove and will probably just shave it – if Wenger picks the right team. If he does, then I reckon the score-line will reflect their last meeting – 2-1 Arsenal.
