Arsenal and Crystal Palace are now preparing to face off at Selhurst Park on Monday night.
The Gunners head into this one on the back of a home win over Nottingham Forest last weekend, while Palace also kicked their season off with a win. Odsonne Edouard scored the winner as the Eagles saw off newly promoted Sheffield United. Though, Roy Hodgson’s men face a tougher test against an Arsenal side with title ambitions.
Ahead of this one, Arsenal are struggling with injuries, while Palace have been boosted by the return of Marc Guehi after a cramp scare. Both teams have players sidelined, though, and here we round up all of them.
1. Michael Olise
Despite the Olise contract boost, the much-wanted star is still recovering from a long-term injury, but he is close to returning.
2. Malcolm Ebiowei
Ebiowei missed the opener and will remain sidelined, as confirmed by Roy Hodgson.
3. Will Hughes
Hughes picked up an injury during pre-season and will remain absent for this one.
4. Matheus Franca
New Palace signing Franca is still in rehab following an injury.
