Arsenal vs Crystal Palace team news
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta says Bukayo Saka should be fit to face Crystal Palace. The winger appeared to be hobbling when substituted against Ipswich on Sunday.
Riccardo Calafiori and Jorginho remain unavailable, as do long-term absentees Gabriel Jesus, Gabriel Magalhaes, Kai Havertz and Takehiro Tomiyasu.
Crystal Palace defender Chris Richards is suspended following his sending off against Bournemouth at the weekend, while Ben Chilwell has been ruled out through illness.
Manager Oliver Glasner has said he will make "two or three" changes to his starting line-up, as Palace balance this fixture with preparation for Saturday's FA Cup semi-final against Crystal Palace.
Premier League title permutations
Liverpool are so close to the Premier League title, they can start to feel it.
With their 1-0 win over Leicester on Super Sunday, Arne Slot's side responded to Arsenal's 4-0 victory at Ipswich to go 13 points clear of their rivals once again - and within one favourable result of winning the Premier League title.
That result could come on Wednesday night when Arsenal host Crystal Palace, live on Sky Sports.
Should the Gunners lose against Palace, then Liverpool would be crowned champions without having to kick another ball.
If Arsenal win against Palace, then the Gunners will move 10 points behind Liverpool having played a game more.
With five matches left for Liverpool, that would mean Slot's side would need to beat Tottenham Hotspur at Anfield to secure the Premier League title on Sunday. That game is live on Sky Sports, kick-off 4.30pm.
If Arsenal draw against Palace, then Liverpool would not be crowned champions as they would be 12 points ahead of the Gunners - who could still pick up 12 more points between now and the end of the season. However, Arsenal would have to achieve a 10-goal swing in the goal-difference tally.
However, if Arsenal draw against Palace, then Liverpool would only need a draw against Spurs to clinch the title.
So overall, Liverpool need to match whatever Arsenal do on Wednesday when they face Spurs on Sunday to win the Premier League title. If the Gunners lose on Wednesday, Liverpool are champions.
