Arsenal take on the visitors Crystal Palace in the round 21 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Saturday, January 20th at Emirates Stadium (London).
Arsenal hopes to make the most of the break. The "Gunners" finished the previous season as runners-up in the Premier League, marking their best result since the Wenger era. Strengthening the squad selectively, the North London club had a successful start to the season. They secured victory in the English Super Cup and topped their group in the Champions League, marking their return to the competition. Arsenal even managed to lead the Premier League table during the winter. However, that's when the first problems began. They lost to Aston Villa, barely salvaged a draw against Liverpool, and failed to earn any points against West Ham and even Fulham before the New Year, slipping to fourth place. Attempting to redeem themselves against Liverpool in the cup, the "Red and Whites" failed to convert chances, and Kiver's own goal further compounded their troubles.

Crystal Palace are not close to catching up with Arsenal or several other neighbors. Steve Parish tried to revitalize the project by appointing Vieira in the penultimate season. However, less than a year ago, amid a lengthy winless streak, he had to acknowledge failure and bring back his predecessor Patrick Hodgson. The latter quickly rectified the situation and currently keeps the club above the relegation zone. However, even "Old Roy" is at risk of dismissal. The recent 3-1 victory over Brentford, their first win after a considerable period of setbacks, might have saved him. In the FA Cup, a replay against Everton ended with a minimal victory for the "Toffees" in Liverpool after a 0-0 draw in London.
Previous matches show that Patrick, leading the "Glaziers," secured 4 points out of 6 possible against his former team in the penultimate season. However, in the last three encounters, Zinchenko and company have won consistently. The "Gunners" have faced several setbacks recently and are now obliged to redeem themselves. We anticipate a victory for Zinchenko and his teammates with a handicap of "-1.5 goals."
Prediction for the match: Arsenal to win with -1.5. handicap.
