Arsenal vs. Crystal Palace prediction, pick for Tuesday 12/23/25

Updated:

By: Ciaran Doyle

The quarter-finals of the Carabao Cup continue on Tuesday as Arsenal host Crystal Palace. The winner will book themselves a place in the semi-finals of the competition against Chelsea.

The Gunners are -210 moneyline favorites on DraftKings Sportsbook for this one, with a draw available at +310. Fancy a Palace upset? They are +500 on the moneyline. The game is slated to kick off at 3:00 p.m. ET.

Arsenal vs. Crystal Palace Prediction, Pick

This will be the second time this season that Crystal Palace have made the trip to the Emirates Stadium. That game resulted in a 1-0 Arsenal win, and I think there will be a similar result in Tuesday’s contest. The Gunners have won four of the last five games against Crystal Palace in all competitions, including a 3-2 win at home in the Carabao Cup almost a year to the date of this game.

The lineups will have a big impact on how this one will go, but at the end of the day, I think Arsenal will win in the 90 minutes. After a loss to Aston Villa earlier this month, the Gunners have rattled off three straight wins in all competitions and I think they will make it four in a row in this one. Crystal Palace come into this fixture in bad form, winless in their last three games while being outscored a combined 9-3.

No matter what lineup the Gunners put out, it’ll be a good one as they have one of the deepest squads in Europe. The North London side should cruise into the semi-finals to set up a mouthwatering two-legged clash against Chelsea.

The Pick: Arsenal Moneyline (-210)
