I remain unconvinced about Arsenal's ability to challenge for major honours but Mikel Arteta's boys are usually very reliable in matches of this banana skin nature. Their aggregate score against bottom half teams last season was 52-17, losing just twice, narrowly at Everton and Nottingham Forest.
There's no denying that Roy Hodgson has had an impact: since his first game back, Palace have won more points than Arsenal , both across 11 Premier League games. However, a regression back to being a solid mid-table outfit is likely for a squad that does lack strength in depth across many positions.
Those wanting to get a bit frisky and boost the away win price should consider taking Gabriel Martinelli to score first in a 2-0 win at 30/1 with Sky Bet. He scored in both starts against Palace last season and ended up their joint-top scorer with 15 Premier League goals. Always outperforming his expected goals return is a very likeable trait in a goalscorer and he looks in the mood for an amazing season down that left flank.
