Crystal Palace vs Arsenal - 5 Things Palace Fans Can Look Forward To

3. An Aerial Assault

After seeing how poorly Arsenal defended last weekend, Palace will look to utilise the aerial power that they have. If Martin Kelly and Mile Jedinak come in, that will give Palace a real height advantage over the Arsenal team that, aside from Per Mertesacker, don't boast too much to shout about in the feet and inches department. Palace scored more from set pieces than any other Premier League club last season and, with there being a chance that Olivier Giroud could miss out, that would leave Arsenal even shorter - both figuratively and literally speaking - so Palace really should be looking to exploit their advantage.
