PATRICK VIEIRA returns to Arsenal for the first time as a manager with his Crystal Palace side looking to nick a crucial three points.
Palace have been draw specialists so far this season, with seven points from as many games and their only victory coming against Arsenal’s North London rivals Spurs.
That day, a Japhet Tanganga red card and a brace from Odsonne Edouard saw the Eagles run out 3-0 winners.
Arsenal meanwhile have three wins, three loses and a draw, following a 0-0 at Brighton two weeks ago.
