Arsenal take on Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park as they hope to regain their Premier League form. In what is the second time playing the Eagles in four days after the dramatic 3-2 League Cup win in North London, the Gunners now travel south looking to win their first league match in three attempts.
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has a reason for optimism, with Declan Rice, Riccardo Calafiori and Oleksandr Zinchenko all in contention to return to the side. Meanwhile, Oliver Glasner is without star man Eberechi Eze who misses out with injury.
With both Chelsea and Liverpool playing on Sunday, the Gunners can put pressure on their title rivals and close the gap. They have had the chance to do this however for the past two weeks and drawn against both Fulham and Everton.
The hope will be Gabriel Jesus' three goals in midweek will bring with it more inspiration to the side to play their game and score more freely. There will of course still be the added threat from set pieces to look out for with both William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes available.

Arsenal could, should things stay as they are, move six points clear of Manchester City as they currently trail at Villa Park.
