There are two changes in midfield as duo Will Hughes and Jefferson Lerma move to the bench, and **Daichi Kamada** and **Adam Wharton** return to the engine room.
In defence, Jaydee Canvot is back among the substitutes, with **Chris Richards** returning to the starting XI.
The Eagles’ options from the bench include Eddie Nketiah, who returns to the Emirates to face former club Arsenal – having scored on this ground for Palace in a Carabao Cup quarter-final defeat last season.
Palace’s last trip to this ground, however, saw us secure a 2-2 draw courtesy of spectacular goals from Ebere Eze and Jean-Philippe Mateta – the latter voted our 2024/25 Goal of the Season.
**Palace:** Henderson (GK), Richards, Lacroix, Guéhi, Muñoz, Kamada, Wharton, Mitchell, Sarr, Pino, Mateta.
**Subs:** Benítez (GK), Clyne, Canvot, Sosa, Lerma, Hughes, Devenny, Uche, Nketiah.
