Confirmed line-ups as Trossard and Calafiori come back in for Gunners

Crystal Palace will attempt to halt the Arsenal juggernaut at the Emirates this afternoon.

The Eagles will come up against a team that has won their last six games in all competitions and looked in ominous form in thrashing Atletico Madrid 4-0 in midweek.

Arsenal sit top of the table and will hope to extend their lead depending on results elsewhere.

Palace continue to evolve under Oliver Glasner even though their momentum was checked by Thursday night’s shock Conference League defeat at home to AEK Larnaca.
