Laurent Koscielny and Nacho Monreal are back in the Arsenal lineup for this afternoon's visit of Crystal Palace.

Arsene Wenger makes four changes to the side that suffered a 2-1 defeat to Bournemouth last time out, as Mohamed Elneny and Mesut Ozil also return to the XI.

Calum Chambers and Ainsley Maitland-Niles fall to the bench, while Rob Holding and Danny Welbeck drop out.

Alexis Sanchez is absent from the squad ahead of his expected move to Manchester United.

For the visitors, Roy Hodgson makes just one change from the victory over Burnley last time out, Yohan Cabaye coming in for Jairo Riedewald.

Joel Ward, out for the last month with a groin injury, starts on the bench.
