After an impressive 3-0 victory against Crystal Palace and confirming the signing of Romelu Lukaku this week, Chelsea travel to the Emirates stadium on Sunday evening as their title charge continues. Arsenal lost their opening match against newly promoted Brentford and have had a very poor pre season too, however they too confirmed a new signing, Martin Odegaard this week. Hence we expect an interesting match between these two London rivals.
Our betting predictions for Chelsea vs Arsenal match are:
Chelsea vs Arsenal Betting Tips
Safe Bets
Arsenal have scored one goal in their last three games including pre season matches and still lack a consistent goalscorer while Chelsea will be looking to play defensive and not get caught on the counter. Hence we expect a low goalscoring match and betting on less than 2.5 goals being scored at odds of 1.80 (bet365) is a safe bet.
Lukaku is expected to start for Chelsea and he was Inter Milan’s top goalscorer last year and Serie A’s best player, hence betting on him to get a goal at odds of 2.20 (bet365) is another good bet.
Arsenal will not give Chelsea the opportunity to control the game and try to keep as much possession as they can hence Jorginho will not have as much control in the game as against weaker teams, hence betting on him to have less than 75.5 passes at odds of 1.83 (bet365) is a good bet.
Quick Rich
As both teams have been stable defensively, we expect less goals and corners to be conceded during the match . Hence betting on less than 2.5 goals being scored and under 10.5 corners conceded during the match at odds of 3.75 (betway) is a safe bet giving high returns.
Betting on the scoreline is always a good way to earn big. We expect the scoreline to end 1-0 in favour of Chelsea at odds of 6.50. or 2-0 at odds of 7.50 (betway).
Win/Lose/Draw
Chelsea have been unbeaten in their pre season and have a much stronger squad than Arsenal who have will be the underdogs going into this match. With Chelsea having a stable and solid squad and formation and Arsenal still deciding their formation and first eleven for the season, we expect Chelsea to win at odds of 1.77 (betway).
Bet During the Match
With Odegaard back in the team, if Emile Smith Rowe still starts the match betting on him to make one successful tackles at odds of 1.66 (bet365) is one of the best bets of the match.
Chelsea overall form : WWDWW
Arsenal overall form : LDLLL
