Preview: Crystal Palace v Arsenal

After 75 days of excitement and anticipation, we finally return to Premier League action when we kick off the campaign with a Friday night capital clash at Crystal Palace.

After a fruitful summer for us that has seen five new faces through the door, six friendly wins and 26 goals netted, the eyes of the world will be focused upon us and Patrick Vieira’s side to see how the first match of the season goes.

Having been beaten 3-0 by Palace back in April, we’ll be hoping that our pre-season momentum will help spring a different result to start our 38-game campaign in the perfect way, but know it’ll be a tricky test with the Eagles losing just one of our last eight meetings.
