Crystal Palace host a hot and firing Arsenal side today at home at the Selhurst Park stadium in London. Arsenal are on an exciting run with a 11 game win streak, hoping to expand it to 12 wins. Crystal Palace at their home won’t be an easy fixture for Arsenal though, losing at Selhurst Park 3-0 in April 2017.
Crystal Palace starting XI:
GK: Hennesey
Defense: Bissaka (RB) Tomkins (CB) Sakho (CB) Aanholt (LB)
Midfield: Kouyate (RCM) Milivojevic (CM)*McArthur (LCM)
Forwards: Townsend (RW) Ayew (ST) Zaha (LW)*
Last week against Everton, Luka Milivojevic had his penalty saved by English goal keeper Jordan Pickford. Wilfried Zaha is Crystal Palace’s main man with them not having won a league game since their 0-1 win at Huddersefield last September, with Zaha scoring in that game.
Arsenal starting XI:
GK: Leno
Defense: Xhaka (LB)* Mustafi (CB) Holding (CB) Bellerin (RB)
Midfield: Guendouzi (LCM) Torreria (RCM) Ozil (CAM) Aubameyang (LM) Iwobi (RM)
Forward: Lacazette (ST)
With an injury crises at Arsenal, Granit Xhaka is playing in left back with all three Arsenal left backs recovering from injuries.
