Arsenal are in midweek Premier League action on Wednesday night, as they welcome Crystal Palace to the Emirates.
This is the third meeting between the two London clubs this season, with Mikel Arteta’s men prevailing in both. After a Gabriel Jesus hat-trick inspired the Gunners to a 3-2 victory in the Carabao Cup quarter-finals, Arsenal won convincingly at Selhurst Park just before Christmas on what proved to be a fateful day in the club’s season.
Meanwhile, Crystal Palace and Bournemouth met at Selhurst Park at the weekend and at the end of a heated contest where tempers flared rather swiftly, the two teams parted ways sharing the spoils.
Palace defender Chris Richard was sent off in what was an otherwise professional performance from the Eagles.
Despite that inconvenience, however, it was a positive result for Olive Glasner who watched his side concede 10 goals combined in their previous two outings against Manchester City and Newcastle United.

A loss to Crystal Palace will end Arsenal’s title challenge. They are 13 points behind Liverpool with just five games to play. They are not going to win the Premier League but could still become European champions. The weekend saw them win 4-0 at Ipswich Town to keep their title hopes alive.
