Arsenal are looking to make it back-to-back wins against Crystal Palace when the two sides meet in the Premier League on Saturday.
The Gunners beat their south London opponents in the Carabao Cup quarter-finals on Wednesday night, with Gabriel Jesus getting back on the scoresheet in emphatic fashion with a hat-trick that knocked the Eagles out.
Arsenal will be looking to repeat their win on Saturday after two successive Premier League draws. Mikel Arteta's men have failed in their battles with Fulham and Everton, struggling to find their stride in the bottom third.
Barring full-back injuries, Arsenal should be able to field a near-first line-up at Selhurst Park, with Arteta keen to avoid further disappointment against an improving Palace side.
Here's how the Gunners could line up on Saturday.
GK: David Raya – The Arsenal defender could do nothing to deny former team-mate Eddie Nketiah in midweek, nor was he able to prevent Jean-Philippe Mateta from being rested. palace ahead. I will be hoping for more protection from his defense at the weekend.
RB: Thomas Partey – Partey has been a hit-and-miss option at right-back as he fills in for the injured Ben White and Takehiro Tomiyasu. What he lacks in attacking threat, he usually makes up for in defensive work rate – something that could be key against Eberechi Eze.
CB: William Saliba – The Frenchman will relish a physical duel with Mateta at Selhurst Park and you'd be willing to bet against the imposing defender coming out on top.
CB: Gabriel – Gabriel's absence was felt by Arsenal against Palace in midweek, with Jakub Kiwior offering a poor impression of his fellow Brazilian. Handling the mighty Mateta is often a two-person job.
LB: Jurrien Timber – Timber was used at centre-back and right-back on Wednesday and could be deployed at left-back on Saturday. The versatile Dutchman rarely puts a foot wrong despite his position.
CM: Martin Odegaard – The captain made a big impact off the bench in midweek and his creativity will be key to Arsenal ending their two-game winless run in the Premier League.
CM: Mikel Merino – Partey's reassignment has resulted in Merino getting plenty of minutes in recent weeks. The Spaniard has started four of the last seven games and could feature again in the 11th in south London.
CM: Declan Rice – Rice should be available at the weekend despite a minor injury concern that sidelined him in midweek. The midfielder provides essential balance in the engine room and is likely to feature in a box-to-box role.
RW: Bukayo Saka – The Arsenal star is without a goal in three Premier League performances after his team's attacking struggles. Like Odegaard, the explosive winger will be key to unlocking a five-man Palace backline.
ST: Kai Havertz – Gabriel Jesus' hat-trick should not disturb Havertz's place in the starting XI, even if the German has been blanked in his last three league games. The former Chelsea man's move could be crucial in stretching Palace's central three.
LW: Gabriel Martinelli – Martinelli was given a night off in midweek and should be well rested for the trip to Selhurst Park. Scored two late goals in a 5-0 win over the Eagles last season, taking his tally to five in eight against them.
