Jenna Nighswonger will earn her first Barclays Women's Super League start as we face Crystal Palace this afternoon.
Our American defender comes in for Katie McCabe, who misses the fixture due to suspension.
The remainder of our backline is unchanged from our midweek tie against Real Madrid, with Leah Williamson, Emily Fox and Steph Catley.
Elsewhere, Lia Walti joins Mariona Caldentey and Frida Maanum in midfield, with Beth Mead and Chloe Kelly starting on the wing. Alessia Russo, once again, leads the line.
**Arsenal starting XI:** van Domselaar, Fox, Williamson (C), Catley, Mariona, Mead, Maanum, Walti, Kelly, Nighswonger, Russo
**Subs:** Zinsberger, Ilestedt, Reid, Cooney-Cross, Pelova, Little, Kafaji, Foord, Blackstenius
