Arsenal

WWWDWD 📈

Arsenal head into this fixture coming off the back of a 1-1 Europa League drawn game vs Sporting Lisbon.

In that match, Arsenal had 53% possession and 13 attempts on goal with 8 on target. The only player to score for Arsenal was Granit Xhaka (19'). On the other side, Sporting CP had 15 shots at goal with 2 of them on target. Pedro Gonçalves (62') was the scorer for Sporting Lisbon. Sporting Lisbon won the match 3-5 in a dramatic penalty shootout.

Arsenal have been on a persistent run of goalscoring form, hitting the target in each and every one of their last 6 matches.

They’ve totted up the amount of 14 during that time while seeing the number of goals scored against them stand at 5. In any event, it remains to be seen if that pattern will continue on in this next game.

Ahead of this clash, Arsenal are undefeated in their last 2 home league matches.

Crystal Palace

DDDLLL 📉

Since suffering a loss in their previous game against Brighton & Hove Albion in Premier League competition, Crystal Palace will be hoping to turn things around here.

In that game, Crystal Palace managed 43% possession and 11 shots at goal with 3 on target. For their opponents, Brighton & Hove Albion got 11 shots on goal with 5 of them on target. Solly March (15') was the scorer for Brighton & Hove Albion.

The stats don’t lie, and Crystal Palace have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 matches, seeing their opponents hit 5 goals in all. At the back, Crystal Palace just haven’t been too solid at all.

Leading up to this clash, Crystal Palace:

• have not registered a win against Arsenal when they've played them away from home in the last 3 league games.
• remain undefeated by Arsenal when they've played them away from home in the last 4 league games. A very decent away record against them.

👥 Head to head

Looking over their past head to head meetings dating back to 11/01/2020 shows that Arsenal have won 2 of them and Crystal Palace 1, with the number of draws standing at 3.

15 goals were shared by the two clubs in this period, with 8 for The Gunners and 7 belonging to The Eagles. The average number of goals per game works out to 2.5.

📰 Team News: Arsenal

Regarding absentees, there’s just the sole fitness concern for the Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta to be concerned with from of an almost fully healthy squad. Mohamed Elneny (Knee Injury) is out of contention.

We think that The Gunners may well kick off with a 4-3-3 formation for this one, handing starts to Aaron Ramsdale, Ben White, Rob Holding, Gabriel, Oleksandr Zinchenko, Martin Oedegaard, Thomas Partey, Granit Xhaka, Bukayo Saka, Leandro Trossard and Gabriel Martinelli.

📰 Team News: Crystal Palace

Owing to a completely injury-free group to pick from, the Crystal Palace manager Paddy McCarthy has zero fitness worries to speak of ahead of this game.

We are inclined to think that The Eagles might utilise a 4-2-3-1 lineup by sending out Joe Whitworth, Nathaniel Clyne, Joachim Andersen, Marc Guehi, Tyrick Mitchell, Luka Milivojevic, C. Oumar Doucoure, Jordan Ayew, Michael Olise, Jeffrey Schlupp and Wilfried Zaha.

💭 Prediction

In this game, Arsenal can and should convert a lot of goal-scoring opportunities.

At the other end, Crystal Palace may well find it hard to find the back of the net although we do reckon that they could well end up converting at least once.

We’re predicting a pretty comfortable 3-1 winning score for Arsenal at the conclusion of the game.
