Arsenal vs Crystal Palace line-ups: Confirmed XIs and latest team news for today's Premier League clash

Unai Emery and Arsenal must turn their attentions back to Premier League action today after qualifying for the Europa League semi-finals.

The Gunners eased past Napoli on Thursday night with a 1-0 win to secure a 3-0 aggregate victory and set up a semi-final clash against Valencia.

The winners of the Europa League also receive Champions League qualification for next season, but Arsenal must switch their focus to securing a top-four finish as they welcome Crystal Palace to the Emirates today.

Thursday's win in Naples came at a cost as Aaron Ramsey suffered a hamstring injury. With a summer move to Juventus already agreed, he may have played his last game for the Gunners.

Sokratis Papastathopoulos serves the last of a two-game ban for collecting 10 bookings, while long-term absentees Danny Welbeck (ankle), Rob Holding and Hector Bellerin (both knee) still missing.

Crystal Palace will be without Jeffrey Schlupp, with the winger ruled out for the rest of the season with the ankle injury he suffered against Manchester City last weekend.

Schlupp joins centre-backs James Tomkins (groin) and Mamadou Sakho (knee) on the sidelines.
