Arsenal will face Crystal Palace in the Premier League this Saturday without three key players due to injuries. Ben White, Takehiro Tomiyasu, and Oleksandr Zinchenko are all confirmed to be unavailable for the upcoming match at Selhurst Park.

White and Tomiyasu are both dealing with knee injuries and are not expected to return until 2025. Zinchenko, who has been struggling with a muscle injury, is also a doubt for the game.

Despite these setbacks, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta remains optimistic about the team’s chances. “We have 21 fit and eligible senior players available for selection for the game vs Crystal Palace,” Arteta said in a pre-match press conference. “We know what the difficulty of the game is, we know what it means to go to Selhurst Park and we have prepared for that.”

The Gunners will be looking to bounce back from their recent 0-0 draw with Everton and secure a win against Crystal Palace to continue their strong domestic form.
