Crystal Palace will welcome Arsenal at Selhurst Park on Monday night as both teams look to go all out for the three points. The Eagles managed to earn a 4-0 win over Everton in the FA Cup before the international break. Similarly, the Gunners secured a 1-0 victory over Aston Villa last month. Hence, we can expect an entertaining contest between the two sides as they try to get the better of each other in the London derby.
Crystal Palace vs Arsenal: Talking Tactics
Patrick Viera will set his team up in a 4-3-3 formation and might instruct his players to sit deep and defend well before catching the Arsenal defenders off-guard on the counter.
Mikel Arteta could opt for a 4-2-3-1 formation and could ask his men to dominate the ball and create enough chances to win this derby.
