F-T Arsenal 2-2 Crystal Palace
90+4' GOAL! ARSENAL 2-2 CRYSTAL PALACE (Lacazette, 90+4')
90' 4' of added time.
82' James Tomkins replaces Odsonne Édouard.
81' Gabriel Martinelli replaces Thomas Partey.
76' Attempt missed.
Gabriel Magalhães header from the centre of the box misses to the left.
73' GOAL! Arsenal 1-2 Crystal Palace (Edouard, 73')
71' Ayew makes way for Olise.
67' Lacazette replaces Odegaard, while Kouyate replaces Milivojevic.
64' SHOT!
Partey looks to make amends for his role in Palace's equaliser, skipping nicely around Ayew before unleashing a shot, but there's not enough curl on it to bring it inside Guaita's left-hand post.
62' Arsenal have lost all of their first-half composure on the ball. They are being pressured when knocking around their defence, and when they approach the final third they continue to relinquish possession. Composure is needed.
59' Attempt missed.
Marc Guéhi right footed shot from outside the box.
57' Attempt saved.
Jordan Ayew right footed shot from outside the box is saved.
54' Smith Rowe leads the Arsenal response with a promising run into the Palace area but he's stopped in his tracks by Andersen, who picks up a pressure-relieving foul in the process.
50' GOAL! ARSENAL 1-1 CRYSTAL PALACE (Benteke, 50')
45' Second Half begins..
H-T Arsenal 1-0 Crystal Palace
45+2' Chance!
A wicked cross from Ayew nearly meets the diving Benteke but even the big Belgian can’t get on the end of it, with the goal gaping.
45+1' CORNER!
Milivojevic swings a corner deep to Benteke at the back post which he nods back across goal. McArthur pops up and tries to convert from six yards, but the flag is up for offside.
42' Yellow card to McArthur.
42' Yellow card to Bukayo Saka.
41' It's very quiet inside the Emirates, with the home supporters not having much to shout about, despite a quick start to the game. They've really dropped off the pace and Palace are playing well.
35' CHANCE! Palace's best opening of the game.
Mitchell pulls the ball back and picks out Edouard, who fires an effort towards goal, but it flies over the crossbar.
30' Milivojevic swings the free-kick in but his delivery is criminally poor and cleared by Smith Rowe at the near post.
26' Saka and Odegaard combine to release Tierney in behind the Palace defence, but he just runs out of pitch and his efforts to keep the ball in play hand it straight to Guaita.
23' Gallagher finds space on the edge of the box, turns and then fires an effort towards the Arsenal goal. However, it doesn't have enough pace on it to beat Ramsdale, who makes a comfortable save.
22' A driving run through the heart of the Crystal Palace midfield from Smith Rowe ends with the young Gunner firing straight at Guaita.
20' Arsenal unable to retain possession whenever they do win it back. Palace with the possession and territory, but yet to find that clinical final pass.
14' Aubameyang has gone down and stayed down after an innocuous collision with Milivojevic. He's currently receiving treatment with what looks to be a knock on his knee.
12' Arsenal have won just one of their last six Premier League meetings with Crystal Palace (D4 L1), though it was in their last such meeting in May (3-1 at Selhurst Park).
8' GOAL!
ARSENAL 1-0 CRYSTAL PALACE (Aubameyang, 8')
4' Arsenal work their way downfield with a move started by a luxurious long range pass from Aaron Ramsdale.
2' Benteke drives forward, but he's dispossessed brilliantly by Partey on the edge of the area.
1' First Half begins..
Arsenal Starting XI To Face Crystal Palace: Ramsdale, Tomiyasu, Gabriel, White, Tierney, Partey, Odegaard, Saka, Smith Rowe, Pepe, Aubameyang.
Granit Xhaka is still recovering from a knee injury picked up last month, while Gabriel Martinelli is also unlikely to start against Crystal Palace.
