CB: Laurent Koscielny
Koscielny played against Boro last weekend, and has struggled to play back-to-back matches this season due to chronic achilles tendinitis. Given the length of time since Arsenal’s FA Cup win however, you’d expect the Frenchman to be fighting fit for Palace.
CB: Per Mertesacker
Mertesacker got a well earned rest last weekend after a tough opening half to the season as Arsenal struggled with injury and lack of reserves at the back but will be back feeling refreshed on Saturday.
