Arsenal put the disappointment of last season's title capitulation behind them with an opening-weekend win against Nottm Forest. The visitors threatened first through Brennan Johnson, but it was Eddie Nketiah who opened the scoring, before Bukayo Saka curled in a delightful second from outside the box to give the Gunners a half-time lead. Taiwo Awoniyi pulled one back in the 83rd minute to make it a nervy ending, but Arsenal were worth their win and will be confident of adding another here tonight.
Arteta has made just one change to his team, with Tomiyasu replacing Timber, who's set for a lengthy spell on the sidelines after injuring his knee in the win against Nottm Forest. New goalkeeper David Raya, who recently signed from Brentford, is on the bench.
Crystal Palace began life without Wilfried Zaha by beating Sheffield Utd away from home last Saturday, with Odsonne Edouard converting a Jordan Ayew cross just after half time to secure all three points in south Yorkshire. It was only the French striker's third goal in his last 24 Premier League appearances for Palace, but with Zaha now plying his trade in Turkey there'll be more pressure on Edouard, Michael Olise, Eberechi Eze and new signing Matheus Franca to step up.
Roy Hodgson has named an unchanged starting XI for Palace's first home game of the season, meaning a front three of Ayew, Edouard and Schlupp, who makes his 200th appearance for the club.
