Crystal Palace vs Arsenal

LONDON (Interstat) — Crystal Palace hosts Arsenal on Sunday, May 24, in a Premier League match at Selhurst Park, with both teams looking to build momentum in the final stretch of the season.

The matchup comes just over a month after Palace defeated Arsenal 3-1 at home on April 18, a result that stands as the most recent head-to-head meeting between the sides. That victory snapped a brief run of two consecutive draws between the clubs, including a 1-1 draw at the Emirates Stadium on Dec. 23, 2025, and a 1-0 Arsenal win on Oct. 26, 2025.

Arsenal enters Sunday’s contest following a 1-0 win over Burnley on May 18. The Gunners have posted mixed results in recent weeks, with wins over West Ham (1-0 on May 10) and Fulham (3-0 on May 2), but also a 2-1 loss at Manchester City on April 19 and a high-scoring 5-5 draw with Chelsea on March 22.

Crystal Palace’s most recent result was a 2-2 draw at Brentford on May 17. The Eagles have been inconsistent, following that draw with a 3-0 home loss to Manchester City on May 13 and a 2-2 draw with Everton on May 10. Palace did earn a 3-1 win at Wolverhampton on May 2 and a 2-1 victory over Newcastle on April 12, but also suffered a 3-0 defeat at Bournemouth on May 3.

The April 18 meeting saw Crystal Palace dominate at home, scoring three goals against an Arsenal side that has struggled for consistency on the road. Arsenal has lost two of its last four away matches, including the defeat at Palace and a 2-1 loss at Bournemouth on April 11. The Gunners did earn a 1-0 win at Nottingham Forest on April 11.

Palace has been strong at Selhurst Park, with three wins in its last five home matches across all competitions, including the victory over Arsenal and a 3-0 win over Wolverhampton. However, the Eagles were shut out at home by Manchester City on May 13.

Interstat’s game simulator projects a 1-1 draw, a result that would reflect the tight nature of recent meetings between the two London clubs. Kickoff is Sunday at Selhurst Park.
