Arsenal have been handed a fitness boost ahead of Sunday's match against Crystal Palace with Leandro Trossard and Oleksandr Zinchenko both expected to be fit.
The Gunners can extend their advantage at the top of the Premier League to eight points with a win against a Palace side who won't have Arsenal legend Patrick Vieira on the touchline. Vieira was relieved of his duties as Palace boss on Friday following their 1-0 defeat at Brighton & Hove Albion earlier in the week, which left them just three points clear of the relegation zone.
Mikel Arteta has a number of fitness concerns heading into the clash at the Emirates following Thursday night's Europa League exit to Sporting CP, which saw them go all the way to extra time and penalties. Takehiro Tomiyasu and William Saliba both limped off injured in the first half, with the former leaving the ground on crutches, and the latter set to be assessed.
