Crystal Palace have been charging up for a top half finish and on Monday they will welcome  Arsenal as they look to build the momentum. Ahead of this game, Palace are 12th in the league standings with 34 points, while Arsenal have 54 points and are fourth. Apart from chasing a top half finish, Crystal Palace are still in the hunt for the FA Cup, having thrashed Everton 4-0 in their last game in the competition. Here they will be switching to their league targets and three points will be a massive boost. Palace are unbeaten in their last six matches across all competitions. However, they go into this game with only two wins in 10 league matches. They are unbeaten in their last four league games, but their home form in the league has left a lot to be desired, with just one clean sheet in five. Also, in those five home league matches, Crystal Palace are winless, losing three and failing to score in two.

Arsenal have been on a great run in the league in 2022; they’ve only lost to Liverpool and Manchester City, while also dropping points in a 0-0 draw with Burnley. Going into this game they have seven wins in their last 10 league matches. In their last outing, they beat Aston Villa 1-0 to recover from a 2-0 loss at home to Liverpool and going into this game there’s positive news with the recovery of defender Takehiro Tomiyasu. Mikel Arteta has just won the Manager of the Month award and will be keen to start April on a high. The Gunners have failed to score in just two of their last 10 league matches, and in four of the last six, they’ve scored two or more goals. Previously, Arsenal really struggled to get points in away matches but that spell is gone; they go into this game with five straight away wins and three clean sheets. They’ve scored 14 goals in the last five away matches and only conceded three.
