Arsenal faced Crystal Palace Wednesday for the first of two matches against the South London side this week. After a slightly uneven start to the match, the Gunners booked their place in the League Cup semi-finals on the back of Gabriel Jesus hat trick.
The forward’s return to form couldn’t come at a better time for Arsenal as our attempts to gain ground on league leader’s Liverpool stalled with back-to-back draws against Fulham and Everton.
We head to our Palace rematch with a bit of good news, as Declan Rice and Riccardo Calafiori moved off the injured list and are available.
We are blessed with a late kickoff tomorrow so no excuses will be accepted. Hope to see you all at Maggie’s for the match. And if for some reason, I don’t, happy holidays to you and yours! COYG!
Best,
Mark
