Crystal Palace XI vs Arsenal: Confirmed team news, starting lineup and injury latest for Premier League today

Patrick Vieira has Wilfried Zaha available but Michael Olise misses out for Crystal Palace as they host Arsenal in the Premier League.

Ivory Coast winger Zaha picked up a hamstring issue during the game against France over the international break, ruling him out of the subsequent defeat by England at Wembley.

The grade-two tear was described by manager Patrice Beaumelle as requiring “maybe six weeks or two months” on the sidelines “if it gets worse”.

Olise, meanwhile, withdrew from the France Under-21 squad while suffering from inflammation in his foot.

“We will see how it is going to be tomorrow, but we have to wait for the next couple of days before thinking about [Zaha] starting training with the squad,” the Eagles boss said on Thursday.

“We will wait and see what happens. We have until Monday so hopefully he will get better, and he can have a couple of days of training with the team. We have to wait and see what will happen over the next couple of days.

“[Olise] is not ready to do some work outside. We have to wait day after day and see how he is feeling, and then we will see.”

Olise does not make the squad, but Zaha is in from the start. Conor Gallagher starts in midfielder after his impressive international break, while Marc Guehi and Tyrick Mitchell, who both start, made their England debuts.

Starting XI: Guaita, Clyne, Andersen, Guehi, Mitchell, Kouyate, Schlupp, Gallagher, Zaha, Mateta, Ayew.

Subs: Butland, Ward, Milivojevic, Tomkins, Eze, Hughes, McArthur, Benteke, Edouard.
