Arsenal vs Crystal Palace confirmed injury news as 10 ruled out and 1 passed fit

Arsenal and Crystal Palace go head-to-head in an all-London clash on Wednesday night at the Emirates Stadium, with both sides having their sights set beyond this one. While both sides will want to finish well in the Premier League, both have crucial semi-final clashes in the next week.

Palace are in FA Cup semi-final action at Wembley this weekend, and Arsenal are less than a week away from their Champions League semi-final first leg with PSG. As both sides look to stay injury-free in this one, we have rounded up all the latest injury and suspension news surrounding both teams after the pre-match press conferences.

Ben Chilwell - Out

Glasner has confirmed ahead of this one: “No [new] injury concerns, but sickness - Ben Chilwell is sick, unfortunately. He should have started but he couldn't come today to training, and couldn't train, so he's not available - all others are fit."

Chris Richards - Out (Suspended)

Richards was sent off for two yellow cards last time out. He will serve his one-game suspension here.

Chadi Riad - Out

Riad is out until towards the end of 2025 after an ACL rupture. Glasner said at the time: “Chadi has ruptured his ACL, so we have lost [him] for the rest of the season and even longer. There was no impact, and Chadi as well, it was just a normal situation in training ' so it's really frustrating.”

Cheick Doucoure - Out

Doucoure will also be absent long-term with a knee injury. Glasner said: “After further assessments, Cheicky needs surgery on his knee, so we have lost [him] for the rest of the season. We hope [he] will return for pre-season.”

Bukayo Saka - Fit

Saka was on the wrong end of a bad tackle from Leif Davies over the weekend. Arteta said in his pre-match press conference: "We have to wait and see how he reacts after the [next training] session, but it’s nothing too serious. If we want to, I think he would have a good chance to play tomorrow."

Jorginho - Out

Jorginho will remain absent. Arteta has now confirmed: “Jorginho as well (is out.) For Jorginho I think unfortunately it will be a few weeks. I hope so [to have him back before the end of the season], but I'm not certain. So we have to see how he evolves in the next few days, I would say a few weeks. So the doctor was quite cautious still about talking about any dates. So let's see. The good news is that he's improving, he's feeling much better. It was quite a scary situation and he's in a good place now.”

Gabriel Jesus - Out

Jesus is out for the season with a ruptured ACL, and he is not likely to return until late in 2025. A statement confirmed at the time: “Further to being substituted during our match with Man United, Gabriel Jesus has received extensive assessments, which have confirmed that he has sustained an injury to the ACL in his left knee.”

Takehiro Tomiyasu - Out

Tomiyasu is out for the season having had further surgery on his knee. A statement confirmed at the time: “Despite an initial procedure, followed by a RTT, Tomi continued to have issues with his knee, resulting in a further corrective surgical procedure. He will now begin his rehab programme, which is expected to be completed towards the end of this year.”

Kai Havertz - Out

Havertz was thought to be out for the season after hamstring surgery, but he could now return before the end of the season. Arteta said last week week: “Semi-finals? I think that's too close. But if I have to bet on him earlier than expected, I would say yes. The way he works every day in that gym, pushing everybody, I don't think you can hold him much longer.”

Gabriel Magalhaes - Out

Gabriel is out for the season. A statement confirmed at the time: “Gabi will undergo a surgical repair procedure to his hamstring in the coming days and immediately begin his recovery and rehabilitation programme, with the aim to be ready for the start of next season.”

Riccardo Calafiori - Out

Arteta has confirmed before this game: "Yes Ricci is out.” It’s hoped the Italian can return next week. Arteta added: "[With Calafoiri] well, three of the injuries, obviously they are impact injuries. One is a really bad twist. It could have been worse, to be fair. So now we learn many more things about the player and how we can be much more on top of certain situations to try to prevent them.”
