Arsenal Plans Lineup Changes Facing Crystal Palace Amid Fitness Concerns

Arsenal is set to face Crystal Palace in the Premier League with hopes of extending their lead at the top of the table following a commanding 5-0 Champions League win over Atletico Madrid. Manager Mikel Arteta is likely to field a strong lineup with key changes including Leandro Trossard and Cristhian Mosquera returning to the starting eleven, while Gabriel Magalhaes is doubtful due to a hamstring injury. David Raya remains the first-choice goalkeeper, and the defense will likely feature Jurrien Timber, William Saliba, Mosquera, and Riccardo Calafiori. Midfielders Declan Rice and Martin Zubimendi are expected to continue their partnership, with Eberechi Eze playing as the number 10 and Bukayo Saka on the right wing. The forward line is anticipated to be led by Viktor Gyokeres, aiming to capitalize on his recent form. Arsenal aims to secure their seventh consecutive victory and maintain their strong defensive record as they take on a resilient Crystal Palace squad under Oliver Glasner.
