Arsenal - Crystal Palace  Prediction, Picks and Tips  


 
  
The London clash between Arsenal and Crystal Palace is scheduled for Thursday evening in London. With a victory over the visiting team from South London, Arsenal increases the gap with Crystal Palace to four points.

 

 

 
 
   
For Arsenal it is really important to grab three points during this midweek round in the Premier League. The chance that this Arsenal will compete for a Champions League ticket is admittedly nil, but the North Londoners will still want to make the connection with the sub-top quickly. That Arsenal is currently in the right-hand row of the English football league actually says enough. This is also not yet the season of Mikel Arteta and Arsenal.

 

In recent weeks, the Spanish manager's team has been in slightly better shape. Arsenal have won the last three league games in the Premier League and also recorded a victory in the FA Cup tournament last weekend. On Saturday evening, Newcastle United was a guest in the cup tournament at the Emirates Stadium and Arsenal recorded a 2-0 win against The Magpies. Emile Smith Rowe and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang made the difference for the North Londoners in the second half of the extension. Gabriel Martinelli twisted his ankle in that game and will therefore not be there on Thursday evening when Crystal Palace is a guest at the Emirates. Thomas Partey and Gabriel Magalhães are also question marks for this midweek game.



 
 
 
 
 

A result on a visit to Arsenal on Thursday evening is not necessarily necessary for Crystal Palace. The East Londoners are currently well above the line and that was also the goal of The Eagles prior to this season. In fact, Crystal Palace already has such a head start on the relegation zone that it all has to go very crazy if it is to get into trouble. You can say whatever you want about Roy Hodgson, but the Premier League's oldest manager has been doing his best with Crystal Palace for years.

 

In recent weeks, Crystal Palace has been in a small dip. The East London club managed to win only one of the last seven games. That happened a week and a half ago when Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park was 2-0 too strong for Sheffield United. Just like Arsenal, Crystal Palace had obligations in the cup tournament last week. For Crystal Palace, that adventure soon came to an end. Wolverhampton Wanderers was 1-0 too strong for The Eagles on Friday evening. Remarkably, Crystal Palace remained unbeaten in the last two games it played at the Emirates Stadium. Last season it became 2-2 in North London and the season before Palace even booked a nice 2-3 victory.
