Arsenal - Crystal Palace: Form Analysis
The Emirates faithful were treated to a show on Tuesday night against Atletico Madrid in the Champions League. Mikel Arteta’s squad was utterly ruthless in their attack, scoring twice from set pieces and twice from open play to secure a 4-0 win.
The Gunners are now a perfect 3-0-0 in the UCL and have yet to concede. They’ve won their last six matches on the bounce, conceding just a single goal during that stretch.
Arsenal have faced just one shot on target in their last three games across all competitions.
Indeed, Arsenal’s defence is putting up remarkable numbers and they’ve now conceded just three goals in 12 total games.
Crystal Palace came roaring out of the gates in the 2025-26 season, going unbeaten in their first 11 fixtures across all competitions.
They have since cooled off and are now on a three-game winless run overall following their shock 1-0 home loss to Larnaca in the Conference League. Palace’s last victory in the Premier League was their thrilling 2-1 home win over Liverpool.
In their last league outing, the visitors came from behind to draw Bournemouth 3-3 at home thanks to an equalizing spot kick deep into stoppage time.

Arsenal & Crystal Palace Squad Analysis
Arsenal are deadly from dead-ball situations and are one of the best teams in the world in that regard, already racking up 10 set piece goals in 12 games. Gabriel Magalhaes proves to be worth his weight in gold when he comes up for corners and free kicks and has already contributed two goals and two assists this season.
Unfortunately for Mikel Arteta, Gabriel’s participation looks to be in doubt for the visit of Crystal Palace with the Brazilian unable to train in the buildup to this match with an unspecified injury.
Arsenal boast an embarrassment of riches in defence.
Even if the Brazilian is unable to suit up, the likes of Piero Hincapie or Christian Mosquera could both fill in and partner William Saliba. Also missing out for the hosts will be Odegaard, Madueke, Jesus and Havertz, who are all still recovering from injuries.
Palace manager Oliver Glasner will be without Chadi Riad, Cheick Doucoure and Caleb Kporha for the trip to North London. The in-form man for the visitors is Jean-Philippe Mateta, who scored a hat trick in the 3-3 draw with Bournemouth.
It was the first time in the Premier League that the Frenchman has netted a hat trick and brought his tally on the season to seven goals in 14 appearances across all competitions.

Our Arsenal vs Crystal Palace Prediction
Arsenal will come into this game with a significant rest advantage of two days after Palace last played on Thursday in the Conference League, something that should not be overlooked. The visitors now face the arduous task of trying to score a goal against this rock-solid Arsenal rearguard.
Arsenal’s defence has been simply superb and the Gunners are performing like one of the best teams in Europe at the moment. This won’t be an easy match but the hosts should secure a win and a clean sheet at home. Our Arsenal vs Crystal Palace prediction: Arsenal win to nil.
