There is Monday night English Premier League football to look forward to and we take a look at the match between Crystal Palace and Arsenal from a betting angle.
CRYSTAL PALACE
Crystal Palace have only played 1 match so far this season and that was away to newcomers, Sheffield United. Palace were 12/10 to win the game which they did thanks to a 49th-minute winner with, the final score 1-0.
Palace have played a number of friendlies in the lead up to the season with some good results including a 2-0 victory over Lyon in their final friendly.
ARSENAL
Arsenal were as short as 1/5 to win their opening EPL fixture at home to Nottingham and they started strongly taking a 2-0 lead into the half-time break. They failed to put Nottingham away though and when the visitors scored in the 82nd minute The Gunners were relieved to hold on for the 1 goal win and bank the 3 points.
Arsenal had played Manchester City in the Community Shield the week before winning in a penalty shoot-out after the game had finished 1-1.
RECENT HEAD-TO-HEAD
Arsenal did the double over Crystal Palace last season, winning this fixture 2-0 and winning 4-1 at home.

Crystal Palace 9/2
Draw 32/10
Arsenal 5/8
Although Crystal Palace were held goalless by Arsenal in this fixture last season, they have scored in the previous 4 matches against the Gunners. The bet I like here is for both teams to find the back of the net at 19/20 and I also quite like over 2.5 goals at 9/10. I am going to take the both teams to score bet and also throw in a correct score play priced at 7/1
Suggested Bet: Both teams to score, YES, at 19/20
Suggested Bet: Correct Score, 1-2 at 7/1
Note: All prices correct at the time of writing but are subject to change
