A guard of honour awaits Arsenal at Selhurst Park for their final Premier League game of the season against Crystal Palace on Sunday afternoon. The Gunners are unbeaten in their last seven league games against the Eagles (15th place), and we are going for the league winners to cap off the season with a victory as our match prediction.
The Gooners’ 22-year wait for an EPL title finally came to an end on Tuesday night after Man City’s draw with Bournemouth. They will be presented with the trophy at the final whistle of this weekend’s London Derby, before setting their sights on the Champions League final against PSG next weekend.
It will also be an emotional day for Oliver Glasner, who will step out at Selhurst Park for the last time as Palace’s boss. The Austrian’s final act will be trying to secure the Eagles’ first European crown on Wednesday in the Conference League final, meaning he is unlikely to go full strength in this match. Let’s get into the key stats!

Crystal Palace - Arsenal: Form Analysis
Crystal Palace made clear that their main focus over the past couple of months has been the Conference League, and in doing so, their Premier League record has taken a serious knock.
The Eagles played to a 2-2 draw against Brentford last weekend and are now winless in their last six league games (D3 L3), dating back to a 2-1 victory over Newcastle United in early April.
While the hosts have only won four home league games this season, they have been tough to defeat at Selhurst Park lately, currently unbeaten in their last nine matches across all competitions.
Palace have kept clean sheets in three of their last five Prem home games!
It has been a challenging run-in, but Arsenal have held their nerve in the last few weeks, including their last match, where they edged Burnley to a 1-0 victory in their final home game of the season.
The Gunners are now on a four-match win streak in the EPL and unbeaten in their last six in all competitions, a period during which they kept five clean sheets and conceded only a single goal.
The champions have earned 35 points from their 28 away games this season (W10 D5 L3) - the best away record in the division. They have also won each of their last three league games at this venue.

Crystal Palace & Arsenal Squad Analysis
As touched on earlier, Glasner is unlikely to risk injuries ahead of the UECL final in midweek, which could see the likes of Maxence Lacroix, Daniel Munoz, Jean-Philippe Mateta and Ismaila Sarr all start on the bench here.
Jorgen Strand Larsen should therefore lead the line, with Brennan Johnson and Yeremy Pino likely to complete the attacking trio. Justin Devenny is expected to get the nod as the starting wingback.
Chris Richards picked up a knock last week against the Bees and faces a race against time to be fit for the trip to Leipzig. Borna Sosa, Eddie Nketiah and Cheick Doucoure are the confirmed injury absentees for the hosts this week.
Viktor Gyokeres is one to watch for Arsenal this weekend!
With the consensus that Arteta will choose Kai Havertz to lead the line against PSG next week, Viktor Gyokeres is expected to start in attack here, and the Swede will be eager to add to his 21 goals across all competitions.
Bukayo Saka is another who may be saved for the UCL final, which could see Noni Madueke handed a start on the right flank and Leandro Trossard on the left. Gabriel Jesus could also get some minutes in what could be his final game for the Gunners.
Ben White and Jurrien Timber are both out for this match, meaning Cristhian Mosquera should start at right-back. Mikel Merino is the only other player ruled out for the visitors for this weekend’s trip to south London.

Our Crystal Palace vs Arsenal Prediction
Safe from relegation and with the Conference League final on the horizon, Crystal Palace are unlikely to go full strength in this match, with Glasner expected to save his best players for the trip to Leipzig.
Arsenal have the Champions League final coming up and are also expected to make several changes here, but given their squad depth and desire to cap off their league campaign on a high, we feel the Gunners will come out on top in this season's finale. Our Crystal Palace vs Arsenal prediction is Arsenal wins.
