After a well-deserved celebration in the streets of London, Arsenal, once again Premier League champions after a 22-year wait, will shake off their hangovers in their final league match against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.
The clash between the Eagles and the Gunners is a mere formality, as both clubs are focused on the finals of their respective European competitions. Palace will face Rayo Vallecano in Germany in the Conference League. Arteta's Arsenal will seek even greater glory six days after closing out the Premier League season when they travel to Budapest to play PSG in the Champions League final.
Although Crystal Palace boasts a 12-match unbeaten record when they close out the season at Selhurst Park, Arsenal has won 8 of their last 9 encounters. That includes Arsenal's most recent victory at Selhurst Park, a resounding 5-1 win.
All things considered, it was a season where Arsenal finally shed their runner-up label. Arteta's hard work paid off; this team, which had been playing together for several years, won the league by playing a highly tactical and organized style of football, conceding only 26 goals. In contrast, for Crystal Palace, it was another season where they finished, as usual, in mid-table, avoiding relegation but also missing out on European qualification.

Our Crystal Palace vs Arsenal Prediction
This time, Arsenal arrives at the final match of the 2025/2026 Premier League season having kept a clean sheet against Newcastle, Fulham, Atlético Madrid, West Ham, and Burnley in matches starting on April 25th.
It suits Arteta's men that the Conference League final, which the Eagles have yet to play, is three days before their Champions League final. The Crystal Palace manager even spoke of "managing the minutes" of his players when asked about it.
Our prediction for Crystal Palace vs Arsenal is: Arsenal to win.
