In my opinion Arsenal is clear favorite of today’s match up and should be able to make 3 points in this game.

In overall Crystal Palace have really poor record at home against Arsenal as they failed to win in 20 of last 23 home matches against them. In previous season Arsenal twice recorded comfortable wins: 2:0 here and 4:1 at home. They coming for this game with big mental advantage.

Both teams from London so no ‘real’ away match for Arsenal. It’s big advantage because they don’t have to travel. In previous season Arsenal looked amazing in London derbies because they went unbeaten in all 12 matches and recorded 10 wins in the process. That was the best performance from one team in London derbies in Premier League history.

In previous season Arsenal looked amazing on the road – they produced 39 points and kept 10 clean sheets in 19 away league matches. On the other hand Crystal Palace lost 10 of last 14 first home matches of the season in Premier League.

Crystal Palace won in first match on away against Sheffield, but I not too impressed by that – Sheffield is clear relegation material. In pre-season Eagles lost their offensive star Zaha, in addition to that best assistant from previous season Michael Olis is unavailable today. Crystal Palace scored only one goal against poor Sheffield and I see big problems with goalscoring today.

Arsenal firepower is simply amazing and they have all required tools to score more than one goal today and that should be enough to make 3 points.

在我看来，阿森纳在今天的比赛中显然是最受欢迎的，他们应该能够在这场比赛中得到3分。

总的来说，水晶宫在主场对阵阿森纳的战绩非常糟糕，他们在过去的23场主场比赛中有20场没有获胜。在上个赛季，阿森纳两次轻松获胜:主场2:0和主场4:1。他们带着巨大的心理优势来参加这场比赛。

两支球队都来自伦敦，所以阿森纳没有真正的客场比赛。这是一个很大的优势，因为他们不需要出差。上个赛季，阿森纳在伦敦德比中表现出色，因为他们在12场比赛中保持不败，并取得了10场胜利。这是英超历史上一支球队在伦敦德比中最好的表现。

上个赛季，阿森纳在客场表现惊人——他们在19场客场比赛中得到39分，保持了10场零封。另一方面，水晶宫在本赛季英超联赛的14场首主场比赛中输掉了10场。

水晶宫在第一场客场战胜谢菲尔德的比赛中获胜，但我对此并不印象深刻——谢菲尔德显然是降级的对象。在季前赛中，老鹰队失去了他们的进攻明星扎哈，另外上赛季最好的助手迈克尔·奥利斯今天也不能上场。水晶宫在对阵可怜的谢菲尔德的比赛中只进了一个球，我看到了今天进球的大问题。

阿森纳的火力简直是惊人的，他们都有必要的工具来进一个以上的球，这应该足以得到3分。
