Palace look to be in good form but a lot of that has come in the cups and their Premier League results haven’t actually been that great. Arsenal are flying and are in pole position for a top four finish. Can the Eagles put a dent in that? Let’s get the big man’s verdict and Thommo’s Crystal Palace v Arsenal tips.

Monday 8pm: Crystal Palace v Arsenal

TV: Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Premier League

This is the Patrick Vieira derby, isn’t it? Palace coming up against his beloved Arsenal that he graced for so many years. They’ve done well, Palace.

I think they wanted to see some progression and they have. They’re not ripping up record books or anything, but they’re slowly building there. They’re unbeaten in six in all competitions at the moment, winning four of them.

They’ve just won four of their last 18 in the Premier League but they’re without a win at home in five in the Premier League, losing three. You can make up your mind about that! Arsenal are in stunning form.

They’ve won six of the last seven in the Premier League, they’ve won the last five away! Arsenal have lost just one game from their last 18 visits to Selhurst Park, that’s in all competitions.

That is an incredible record and it’s going to continue with an Arsenal Win, in my opinion. I am going for Both Teams To Score because Palace are doing very well, it’ll be tight. The score line for me is 2-1 to Arsenal and a goal scorer – Bukayo Saka to Score Anytime.
