Crystal Palace (12) v Newcastle (4)

Joachim Andersen will not feature for Palace, the defender is expected to miss several weeks with a calf injury sustained in the 1-0 loss to Chelsea. Long-term absentees James McArthur and Nathan Ferguson remain sidelined and set for at least a few weeks out, although Ferguson has begun to train with the team.

Eddie Howe is unsure when Bruno Guimaraes will return after the Brazilian picked up an ankle injury against Fulham – but the Magpies boss hopes the injury is not long-term. Howe added there were “a few knocks” picked up but confirmed there were no other fresh injury concerns for his team.

Arsenal (1) v Man Utd (3)
