Well, after Fiorentina brought a juddering halt to our 4-strong win streak at the hands of Lausanne, our return to the BTTS market paid out well with Tottenham and Liverpool both firing home in their clash. So let's get back to the winners table as Christmas approaches, yeah? We're going with a specific player bet today - as funky fresh as that is, keep an eye out on lineups before locking in this selection. You never know, Glasner could lose the plot and put Clyne up top for no reason.
Mateta still remains as Palace's biggest singular goal threat in the team, and though The Eagles suffered a suffocating defeat against Leeds last time out (4-1) the big Frenchman still managed to have two pops at goal. Over the season, Mateta has had 46 shots from 17 showings in the Premier League for an average of 3.00 per 90 minutes played. This has trawled in seven goals this season, leading the way ahead of Palace's other players.
In the last round of the cup, Palace ran out as mighty 3-0 winners against Liverpool at Anfield. In his cameo, he had two shots and showed once again that he is a man to turn too when The Eagles need a spark up top. For Glasner, he remains a valuable asset to hoist against the best defence in Europe, with Palace likely to be strangled down to seeing positive moments in transitions, counters and long knocks up to the strike.
Earlier this season, Mateta had a shot against Arsenal when they made a prior trip to the Emirates amidst their impressive Premier League campaign, with Palace having seven shots overall in that clash. They could have a few more than that occasion here - Arsenal are expected to rotate their side with a festive game against Brighton in the league on the horizon.
Last season shows some historical context as well - Mateta scored in both of The Eagle's visits to the Emirates last season, in the cup and the league, and managed to pay this market out with 2 shots in the cup clash with Arsenal winning 3-2.
We're backing the big man to have a couple stabs at goal tonight.
