Arsenal kick off the 2022/23 Premier League season on Friday night, but a difficult test against Crystal Palace awaits at Selhurst Park.
After missing out on a top-four finish on the final day of last season and with the memory of the 2-0 defeat at the hands of Brentford in similar circumstances 12 months ago, it's safe to say the Gunners are better prepared for the start of a new campaign following some good results in pre-season and shrewd signings in the summer transfer window.
In terms of team news, it's almost the same as it was for last weekend's Emirates Cup win over Sevilla as with Kieran Tierney, Takehiro Tomiyasu and Fabio Vieira all expected to train, it means that Emile Smith Rowe is the only first-team player likely to be unavailable for selection.
