Low Risk Jesus has been heavily involved in Arsenal’s attacking play since his return and consistently gets into scoring positions, which makes one shot on target a banker if Arsenal are to win. As the focal point of the front three, he regularly produces the goods in front of goal and isn’t shy about pulling the trigger when chances open up. With Arsenal typically dominating possession and creating a high volume of attempts, their main striker should naturally register at least one effort that tests the goalkeeper.
Over 1.5 goals is a strong foundation selection that doesn’t rely on a specific result or scoreline. Arsenal matches often feature attacking football and sustained pressure, which usually leads to multiple goal opportunities across 90 minutes. Two total goals can land in a variety of ways, whether it’s a comfortable win for the away side or a close encounter with a strong free flowing Brentford side. With the quality Arsenal possess going forward, this total feels well within reach.
I mean the last one is self explanatory. Arsenal are gunning for the league and don't want to drop any points with City not too far behind. Arsenal tend to dictate possession, create more chances and keep opponents pinned back for long stretches, particularly against sides outside the top four. Their defensive structure also limits clear opportunities at the other end, giving them a strong platform to convert pressure into three points. Backing the Gunners to win aligns with the script of the season.
High Risk While Arsenal are expected to control large spells of the game, backing both teams to score covers the possibility of an open contest rather than a routine clean sheet. We can sit here and say f Arsenal are not on their game then they will be punished. But the morale of the selection is Brentford's known form at home that has seen numerous big sides come and fail to win. It only takes one lapse or moment of quality for the home side to find the net, and with Arsenal almost always creating enough chances themselves, goals at both ends feels like a realistic outcome.
This is a strong, low-risk selection based purely on volume. Arsenal typically dominate games and corners have been a key aspect that sees them top of the Premier League. Four corners is a modest line for a side that regularly spends long spells in the final third, looking to create set piece opportunities. Even without a high-scoring game, their style alone should generate enough set pieces to comfortably clear this number.
Henderson’s role in midfield often involves breaking up play, pressing aggressively and committing tactical fouls to stop transitions, which naturally increases his booking risk. Against a technically strong side like Arsenal, he’s likely to spend long periods chasing the ball and making recovery challenges. In matches where the opposition dominate possession, midfield enforcers often pick up yellows, making this what we believe is a smart pick.
Two selections we already touched on, Jesus shot on target due to his heavy in involvement in the front three and Arsenal to win. The Gunners have to pick up three points to try and bridge that gap to Man City in 2nd. We expect it to be an exciting affair.
