CRYSTAL Palace striker Marouane Chamakh is set to face his former club Arsenal on Saturday - but his time in north London seems to a distant memory to the 31-year-old now.
The Moroccan says the Eagles must take at least a point against the Gunners as they look to improve their home form at Selhurst Park and climb the league table.
"Now, because I have played against them a few times, it is going to be different than it was before," said Chamakh.
"It is not like it's going to be the first time playing against them since I left Arsenal.
"It's going to be a good game to play for my team or me. We should do something because it's a really important game - Premier League game and we need a minimum of one point, but it's going to be hard."
