Arsenal are expected to play in a 4-3-3 formation with David Raya in goal.
"Crystal Palace have done quite well this season. The Eagles finished 12th in the Premier League table in the 2024-25 campaign and could end up in a similar position this time around. Glasner's side are 15th in the Premier League table at the moment with 45 points from 37 matches. Palace are not going to finish in the top half of the standings or even 12, but they could win a major trophy. Palace will take on Spanish club Rayo Vallecano in the final of the UEFA Conference League next Wednesday. The Eagles will be using the match against Arsenal to prepare for the final against Rayo."
"Crystal Palace are likely to line up in a 3-4-2-1 formation against Arsenal. Dean Henderson will be in goal for the Eagles. Jaydee Canvot, Maxence Lacroix and Chadi Riad will be the three central defenders. Daniel Munoz, Adam Wharton, Daichi Kamada and Tyrick Mitchell will be the four midfielders. Ismaila Sarr and Yeremy Pino will be the two attacking midfielders. Jorgen Strand Larsen will lead the line for Palace."
"Arsenal have already won the Premier League title this season. This is the first time since 2004 that the North London club have become the champions of England. Arteta said after the Premier League title was clinched: "We made history again, together. I cannot be happier, prouder for everybody that is involved in this football club. Let's enjoy the moment." While Arsenal have nothing to play for against Crystal Palace, Arteta's side will be using the London derby to prepare for the UEFA Champions League game against Paris Saint-Germain on May 30."
