With Arsenal in pole position to secure the fourth Champions League spot, many Gunners’ fans were relieved to see the back of the international break and return of the Premier League this weekend.
Mikel Arteta’s men return to action with a tricky trip across London to Selhurst Park where they’ll take on Crystal Palace. The Eagles have enjoyed a steady first campaign under former Arsenal captain Patrick Vieira so far and sit within the relative comfort of 12th in the table.
They also have a FA Cup semi-final to look forward to after hammering Everton 4-0 in the quarter-final prior to the international break. The mood in the camp will therefore be high, meaning Palace won’t be a team that’s easy to overcome.
