Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has made three changes to his side for the Premier League encounter at Crystal Palace.

Wenger has used four in defence for the club's most recent fixtures, but the Frenchman has reverted to a back three with Calum Chambers coming in for his first league start of the season.

Shkodran Mustafi also returns to the first XI after injury, while Sead Kolasinac takes his place at left wing-back, with Nacho Monreal, Ainsley Maitland-Niles and Alex Iwobi the players to drop out.

As for Palace, Roy Hodgson has made just one alteration to the team which began the 1-1 draw at Swansea City before Christmas.

Striker Christian Benteke returns after serving a one-match ban, with James McArthur only featuring among the replacements.

Crystal Palace: Speroni; Kelly, Tomkins, Dann, Schlupp; Milivojevic, Cabaye, Loftus-Cheek; Zaha, Townsend, Benteke
Subs: Hennessey, Van Aanholt, Fosu-Mensah, McArthur, Puncheon, Riedewald, Sako

Arsenal: Cech; Chambers, Mustafi, Koscielny; Bellerin, Xhaka, Wilshere, Kolasinac; Ozil, Sanchez, Lacazette
Subs: Opsina, Walcott, Holding, Iwobi, Welbeck, Maitland-Niles, Coquelin
