Crystal Palace manager Patrick Vieira says Wilfried Zaha and Michael Olise could both face Arsenal on Monday.

Olise has been struggling with a foot issue, while Zaha missed Ivory Coast's loss to England with a hamstring problem.

"He is still in the medical room," Vieira said of Zaha. "We will see how it is going to be tomorrow, but we have to wait for the next couple of days before thinking about him starting training with the squad.

"We will wait and see what happens. We have until Monday so hopefully he will get better, and he can have a couple of days of training with the team. We have to wait and see what will happen over the next couple of days.

"We don't know. The good thing about Wilfried is that he does not get injured very often. That is the hope about that. We just have to wait and see day after day."

Asked about Olise, Vieira added: "He just had an issue with his foot.

"He is still in the treatment room as well. He is not ready to do some work outside.

"We have to wait day after day and see how he is feeling, and then we will see.

"Both of them still have a chance [of playing against Arsenal]."
