\nArsenal travel to Crystal Palace on Monday night in a fixture that has ramifications at both ends of the table. The Gunners could find themselves in sixth place come Monday, if results don\u2019t go their way and as far as seven points behind fourth place. Meanwhile, Crystal Palace could slip down to 17th<\/sup> if Hull beat Manchester City. It\u2019s a game of contrasting styles between two contrasting managers and that\u2019s where the excitement factor comes in this match.<\/p>\n

Crystal Palace were on a run of four straight victories, until they were bought back down to earth with a 3-1 defeat to Southampton on Wednesday night. That run of four victories however, contained three clean sheets and a victory over league leaders Chelsea. In beating Chelsea, they became the only team in the bottom half of the table to beat the Blues this season. This match will contain added significance for manager Sam Allardyce. Although his record against Wenger and Arsenal is poor, the two have been rivals for years, dating back to Allardyce\u2019s time in charge at Bolton. He\u2019ll be desperate to get a much-needed victory over his old adversary.<\/p>\n

Arsenal\u2019s 3-0 victory over a struggling West Ham team in midweek would have eased some pressure on Arsene Wenger, but if they fail to back it up again this weekend, then it\u2019ll be straight back on him again. Aside from their victory over West Ham, the only other opponents that the Gunners have beaten since early February have come in the form of non-league sides Sutton and Lincoln in the FA Cup. If they fail to win on Monday night, then they can almost kiss their chances of finishing in the top four goodbye for this season. Games are running out and this one is vital for them.<\/p>\n

Crystal Palace vs. Arsenal Predictions<\/h2>\n

This is a difficult game to predict as both teams are wildly inconsistent. Crystal Palace got hammered by Sunderland a couple of months ago, but have recovered strongly, while Arsenal have been terrible as of late. Both sides will want to win, as a draw isn\u2019t good for either of them.<\/p>\n
