Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner has made three changes to his starting lineup for today’s Premier League encounter with Arsenal, looking to bounce back from their midweek Carabao Cup defeat. After a brave performance at the Emirates, Palace will be hoping to avenge their loss as they host the Gunners in South London.
Nathaniel Clyne, who featured in the second half of Wednesday’s match, returns to the starting XI, while Chris Richards makes his first appearance since September. Daichi Kamada is also brought in for the clash. These changes see Caleb Kporha, Trevoh Chalobah, and the injured Ebere Eze drop out of the starting lineup, with Eze confirmed unavailable for selection. Despite his goal in midweek, Eddie Nketiah starts on the bench for this fixture.
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has made a significant overhaul to his team, making seven changes. Key players like Gabriel, William Saliba, Martin Ødegaard, Kai Havertz, Gabriel Martinelli, and Bukayo Saka are all reintroduced to the starting lineup.

Henderson (GK), Clyne, Richards, Lacroix, Guehi, Mitchell, Lerma, Hughes, Kamada, Sarr, Mateta.
