Arsenal vs Crystal Palace Prediction Premier League
Arsenal vs Crystal Palace Prediction and Betting Tips for Sunday’s Premier League derby at the Emirates Stadium. Arsenal sit top of the table chasing a seventh straight win, while Palace try to rebound from European disappointment. For a full weekend outlook, check the Premier League Predictions page at XpertStats.
- Arsenal average 2.75 goals scored and only 0.25 conceded per match.
- Crystal Palace have scored in 75% of their league fixtures this season.
- Both clubs rank high for corners: Arsenal 9.5 per match, Palace 11.5.
- Arsenal have won five of their last six league meetings with Palace.
Mikel Arteta’s men keep rewriting defensive records. They’ve conceded just three goals in eight matches and haven’t faced a shot on target in their last two league outings. Set-pieces have been their secret weapon: ten goals already from dead balls this season. Leandro Trossard’s close-range finishes and Saka’s relentless drive have Arsenal looking untouchable. Still, after a midweek Champions League rout of Atlético Madrid, you wonder if fatigue might finally creep in.
Rotation could test Arsenal’s depth again, with Ødegaard and Jesus still sidelined and Gabriel Magalhães doubtful. But even second-string Gunners seem ruthless right now. Home advantage has been key: Arsenal have lost just two of their last seventy league matches at the Emirates when starting the day top. That’s dominance defined.
Crystal Palace arrive with mixed emotions. Jean-Philippe Mateta’s hat-trick against Bournemouth showed their attacking spark, but defensive lapses keep haunting them. Just one clean sheet in seven matches tells its own story. Manager Oliver Glasner’s men create plenty, ranking high for shots on target and expected goals, but their finishing often betrays them. Can they really punish Arsenal’s backline? It’s a tall order.
Even so, Palace rarely go quietly. They’ve drawn eight of their last fourteen league games, often forcing chaotic finishes. Their wide play and quick transitions could trouble Arsenal’s full-backs, meaning this might be livelier than expected. Given both sides’ corner stats, Arsenal averaging 9.5 total per game, Palace 11.5, the Over 9.5 Corners market looks particularly inviting. Expect a fast tempo, relentless pressure, and no shortage of flag-raising at the Emirates. For more Premier League Predictions, keep following XpertStats for updates throughout the season.
Barcelona forward Ferran Torres is set to return for Sunday’s El Clásico at the Santiago Bernabéu, offering a major boost for Hansi Flick’s side amid injuries to Robert Lewandowski and Raphinha. The 24-year-old Spaniard, who has already scored twice against Real Madrid, is expected to lead the attack and exploit the hosts’ defensive frailties. His comeback adds fresh attacking depth and crucial experience to Barcelona’s frontline. Source: tribuna.com.
Over 9.5 Corners stands out here. Arsenal’s matches average 9.5 corners, with 75 % surpassing that line. The Gunners win 7.25 on their own thanks to overlapping full-backs and Saka’s endless deliveries. Palace’s games produce even more: 11.5 corners on average—because they concede 7.75 yet still force 3.75 themselves. Stylistically, Arsenal dominate territory and fire in crosses, while Palace counter quickly, leading to deflections and clearances. Both managers rely on width, meaning repeated corner situations are almost guaranteed. With both sides hitting Over 9.5 in three-quarters of fixtures this season, the data is clear. High energy, heavy pressing, and London-derby emotion should keep the corner count climbing.
