Liverpool vs. Arsenal picks and predictions

Prediction

Arsenal 2, Liverpool 1

Moneyline (ML)

LEAN ARSENAL (+145).

The Reds have been on fire as of late, having won 7 league-match games in a row. It hasn’t just been that Arsenal has won but moreso the manner in which they win.

They have won their last 3 games 4-1, 4-1 and 3-0. They also beat Liverpool the 1st time around and have performed equally as well on the road as at home.

Liverpool has also lost 4 of their last 8 throughout all competitions and 2 of their last 3 league matches. They are difficult to trust here, even at home.

Ultimately, back ARSENAL (+145).

Over/Under (O/U)

LEAN OVER 2.5 (-160).

The value isn’t necessary here to suggest a play, but it’s really the only way I’d play this battle. Liverpool’s played 2 games in the last week and should have relatively tired legs.

They have played Man City 4 times this season (2 times in non-league matches) and Arsenal once, going Over 2.5 in 4 of the 5 matches. Arsenal has scored 3 or more in 5 straight league matches and has gone Over this total in 7 of their last 8 league matches.

Superstar Liverpool D Virgil van Dijk missed the team’s match with Chelsea earlier this week with illness, so he may not get a full 90 either. Ultimately, despite the juice, take the OVER 2.5 (-160).

Fulham vs. Arsenal odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s Fulham vs. Arsenal odds and lines, with expert EPL picks, predictions and best bets.

In English Premier League action on Sunday, Fulham (11 wins, 9 losses, 6 draws) hosts table-topper Arsenal (20-3-3) at Craven Cottage at 10 a.m. ET (Peacock/fuboTV). Below, we preview Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Fulham vs. Arsenal odds, and make our best EPL bets, picks and predictions.

Fulham was on the short end of a wide 3-2 loss at Brentford on Monday, which snapped a 7-match unbeaten run for the Cottagers (4 wins, 3 draws). Fulham is rather stout at home, posting a total of 22 points at Craven Cottage this season.

Arsenal, the EPL leader with 63 points, also check in 2nd with a plus-34 goal differential. The Gunners have bagged 11 goals in the previous 3 trips to Craven Cottage, but Arsenal could have some issues since Gabriel Jesus is sidelined, and Martin Odegaard is doubtful to play due to illness.

Fulham vs. Arsenal picks and predictions

Prediction

Fulham 1, Arsenal 1

Moneyline (ML)

DRAW (+340) is a solid option for the chance to more than triple up.

Fulham was unbeaten in 7 matches before losing to Brentford last time out. Arsenal has been superb this season, but it enters a little dinged up. The Gunners will do well to grab a draw and a point to remain atop the EPL table.

Over/Under (O/U)

UNDER 2.5 (+110) is worth a roll of the dice. While Arsenal is averaging more than 2 goals per match, Fulham’s defense has been adequate. It is conceding just over 1.3 goals per match, and will make life difficult for Arsenal. If this match were at Emirates Stadium, and Arsenal was a little healthier, I’d lean the other way.

Arsenal vs. Manchester City picks and predictions

Prediction

Arsenal 2, Manchester City 1

Moneyline (ML)

BET ARSENAL (+200).

Arsenal has beaten Liverpool, Chelsea, Manchester United, West Ham and Tottenham at home this season. They have played well and have had success against top-tier clubs. The key here is in the midfield, and the combination of M Granit Xhaka and Odegaard has proven to be as good as any other in the EPL.

With City D John Stones out, they may struggle as contain a balanced Arsenal attack. City has lost to Tottenham, Liverpool and Man U on the road this season. Their struggles away from home have been well documented.

Put it all together and back ARSENAL (+200).

Over/Under (O/U)

LEAN OVER 2.5 (-115).

Both teams have talented attacks and should be able to get ample opportunities. Arsenal is averaging 2.19 goals per game. They have scored 3 or more goals in 2 of their last 4 home games and have topped this total in 3 of their last 5 home games.

City has had at least an expected goal in all but 1 road match this season. They have had at least 2 expected goals in 2 of their last 4 road matches. City is averaging 2.55 goals per game.

The dominant attacks should produce goals in this game. Back the OVER 2.5 (-115).

Everton vs. Arsenal odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Saturday’s Everton vs. Arsenal odds and lines, with EPL expert picks, predictions and best bets.

In English Premier League action on Saturday, Everton (3 wins, 11 losses, 6 draws) and Arsenal (16-1-2) at Goodison Park in Liverpool at 7:30 a.m. ET. Below, we preview Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Everton vs. Arsenal odds, and make our best EPL bets, picks and predictions.

Everton heads into this home match with Sean Dyche as the manager, replacing Frank Lampard. The Toffees currently sit 19th out of 20 in the EPL table, posting just 15 out of a possible 60 points while posting a dismal minus-13 goal differential.

Arsenal sits atop the table with 50 points, which is 5 clear of second-place Manchester City with a game in hand. The Gunners are second overall with a plus-29 goal differential, too, and they’re tied with Newcastle with just 1 loss apiece.

Everton vs. Arsenal picks and predictions

Prediction

Arsenal 2, Everton 0

Moneyline (ML)

Arsenal (-250) will cost you 2 1/2 times your potential return, and that’s just too expensive. It’s a bit risky, too, as Arsenal hasn’t won at Goodison Park since the 2017-18 campaign.

Instead, look to ARSENAL -1.5 (+115) against the spread instead. Everton hasn’t won in each of the past 8 EPL matches. While The Toffees should show a little more heart with the new regime change, it will take time before we see any noticeable changes.

Over/Under (O/U)

UNDER 2.5 (+100) is a solid play at even-money, although there is some risk.

Everton has conceded at least 2 goals in 6 of its past 7 EPL matches, while Arsenal has found the back of the net at least twice in 5 of the past 6. But it is hard to envision Everton getting on the board, and Arsenal should meet a lot more resistance after the coaching change for the home side.

Manchester United (12 wins, 4 losses, 3 draws) battle Arsenal (15-1-2) at Emirates Stadium Sunday. Kickoff is set for 11:30 a.m. ET. Below, we preview Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Arsenal vs. Manchester United odds, and make our best EPL bets, picks and predictions.

Manchester United has been rolling as of late, beating Manchester City 2-1 Jan. 14 before having a midweek draw against Crystal Palace. United is 5-3-2 on the road this season. They have won 5 of their last 6 Premier League matches. United is led by F Marcus Rashford, who has 8 goals on the season. They will be without M Casemiro in this battle.

Arsenal, on the other hand, will be down F Gabriel Jesus. M Martin Odegaard leads the team with 8 goals on the season. Arsenal is 7-0-1 at home this season, coming off a 2-0 road win over Tottenham. They have won 6 of their last 7 Premier League games.

Arsenal vs. Manchester United picks and predictions

Prediction

Arsenal 2, Manchester United 1

Moneyline (ML)

BET ARSENAL (-113).

Arsenal has been almost flawless at home, and they have been rolling as of late. The Reds have scored multiple goals in every home league match outside of a 0-0 draw with Newcastle in which they had more expected goals than their opponent. Arsenal has only allowed a goal per game as well.

While United has surged up the table lately, they haven’t been great on the road, which was evident in their 1-1 draw with Crystal Palace. They have had fewer expected goals than their opponent in half of their road matches.

Ultimately, considering both teams in this position, back ARSENAL (-113).

Over/Under (O/U)

LEAN OVER 2.5 (-140).

Arsenal is averaging 2.33 goals per game and has been incredibly efficient at home this season. United is averaging 1.58 goals per game this season.

They have scored in every game throughout all competitions since Oct. 16. Goals should be scored in this battle, so back the OVER 2.5 (-140) for a partial unit due to the value on it.

Tottenham Hotspur vs. Arsenal odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s Tottenham Hotspur vs. Arsenal odds and lines, with EPL expert picks, predictions and best bets.

Tottenham (10 wins, 5 losses, 3 draws) battles Arsenal (14-1-2) Sunday. Kickoff from Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is set for 11:30 a.m. ET. Below, we preview Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Tottenham Hotspur vs. Arsenal odds, and make our best EPL bets, picks and predictions.

Arsenal has been the best team in the EPL this season, and it hasn’t been particularly close. They received a nice gift with Man United’s 2-1 win over 2nd-place Man City Saturday as well. Arsenal has scored 40 goals and allowed 14 in 17 matches. They are led in scoring by F Martinelli and M Martin Odegaard, both of which have a team-high 7 goals.

Tottenham is led by F Harry Kane, who has 15 goals in the year. They have been rock solid at home, posting a 6-0-3 record. The Hotspur attack is lethal with 37 goals in 18 games, having allowed 25. They are just 1-1-1 over their last 3 league matches.

Tottenham Hotspur vs. Arsenal picks and predictions

Prediction

Arsenal 2, Tottenham Hotspur 2

Moneyline (ML)

LEAN DRAW (+260).

Tottenham has yet to lose at home this season, and it will have enough pace to push the Arsenal backline. The Kane-led side have 3 home draws as well. Arsenal will also be down F Gabriel Jesus, who has been a star for them this season.

Arsenal is 1-1-1 this season against top-5 EPL sides. They beat Tottenham 3-1 earlier in the season at home, but Arsenal had just 0.8 more expected goals.

Now on the road and considering Tottenham’s dominance at home, back a DRAW (+260) but only for a small unit considering the value.

Over/Under (O/U)

BET OVER 2.5 (-130).

Arsenal has gone Over this total in 2 of its last 3 EPL matches. It is also 2-1 O/U this total against top-5 EPL sides, and it is playing one of the best offenses in the league.

Tottenham has gone Over this total in 3 of its last 4 league matches with all 3 of those games going Over even 3.5 total goals. They have arguably the best-finishing forward in the league in Kane coupled with one of the best dribbles in F Son Heung-min.

That has been a recipe for offensive success. Couple that with their defense allowing 1.39 goals per game, and against an Arsenal team that also has a lethal attack, back the OVER 2.5 (-130).

Arsenal vs. Manchester United odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Saturday’s Arsenal vs. Manchester United odds and lines, with EPL picks and predictions.

Manchester United (15 wins, 9 losses, 9 draws) visits Emirates Stadium Saturday to take on Arsenal (18-11-3). Kickoff is set for 7:30 a.m. ET. Below, we preview the Arsenal vs. Manchester United odds and lines, and make our best EPL bets, picks and predictions.

This game is important. While neither is anywhere close to the top of the table, Man U sits 6th with 54 points, just behind Arsenal, which has 57 points. Tottenham is 4th with 57 points as well.

The top-four teams in the EPL get to join the Champions League.

Arsenal is coming off a very impressive 4-2 road win over Chelsea Wednesday behind F Eddie Nketiah’s 2 goals. F Bukayo Saka and F Emile Smith Rowe, who each have a team-high 10 goals, scored as well. It snapped a 3-game losing streak in league play for Arsenal.

As for Man U, it might be coming in with a little less confidence after suffering a 4-0 loss Tuesday in a discouraging battle with second-place Liverpool. Man U did win last weekend 3-2 over Norwich City thanks to a hat trick by superstar F Cristiano Ronaldo, but Man U has lost 2 of its last 3.

  • Over/Under: 2.5 (O: -140 | U: +115)

[tipico]

Prediction

Arsenal 1, Manchester United 1

Money line (ML)

LEAN to the DRAW (+255).

Sure, it looks like Arsenal is playing far better, but its most recent win is arguably more about the phenomenon regarding how bad Chelsea has been at home. Prior to that, Arsenal had lost 3 straight league games.

Those losses were to the 10th-, 13th- and 14th- place teams.  It lost to Man U 3-2 earlier in the season.

However, it’s hard to back Man U after its lacking effort against Liverpool. Plus, it recently lost to 17th-place Everton.

Neither team can necessarily be trusted is what I’m getting at, and if anything, I’d play a DRAW (+255) here.

Over/Under (O/U)

BET UNDER 2.5 (+115).

This is my best bet of the game, and there is good reason as well.

While Arsenal averages 1.53 goals per game, it allows just 1.2 goals per game. Four of its last 7 have gone Under 2.5 goals, and it actually managed a multi-goal game in just 1 of its last 6.

Its 4-goal performance against Chelsea was more about capitalizing on opportunities, as it scored 4 goals on 4 shots on target. That’s unlikely to be repeated any time soon.

As for Man U, it hasn’t scored in 3 of its last 5 and has gone Over 2.5 goals in just 2 of its last 5.

These teams have potent attacks, but at this value, I’d rather bet against them.

Arsenal vs. Leicester City odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s Arsenal vs. Leicester City odds and lines, with EPL picks and predictions.

Arsenal (15 wins, 7 losses, 3 draws) welcomes Leicester City (9-10-6) Sunday to Emirates Stadium. Kickoff is set for 11:30 a.m. ET. Below, we preview the Arsenal vs. Leicester City odds and lines, and make our best EPL bets, picks and predictions.

Currently riding a 4-game winning streak, Arsenal should look to continue its dominance at home, having won 9 of 13 matches at Emirates Stadium. Arsenal most recently defeated Watford 3-2 March 6.

With Manchester United’s 3-2 victory Saturday, Arsenal has dropped to fifth place; however, it has played 4 fewer games than United.

F Emile Smith Rowe, who leads Arsenal with 9 goals this season, is listed as doubtful for Sunday’s match, per whoscored.com. Leicester will also be down several key players, including star F Jamie Vardy.

As for Leicester, it has won 2 straight, defeating Leeds 1-0 March 5 and Burnley 2-0 March 1. Arsenal will pose a much more difficult challenge. Leicester is 2-5-0 against the EPL’s top-five teams.

  • Over/Under: 2.5 (O: -165 | U: +133)

[tipico]

Prediction

Arsenal 2, Leicester City 0

Money line (ML)

PASS.

Arsenal should come out on top, and I like the home side in this position, especially with Leicester down Vardy. However, at -200, I can’t get fully behind that wager.

A bet that’s focused on Arsenal’s defense is BOTH TEAMS NOT TO SCORE (+102).

Arsenal has allowed just 29 goals in 25 games, and while Leicester has scored 41 in 25 games, Vardy has contributed 10 of them.

Fifteen of Arsenal’s 25 games and nine of Leicester’s 25 games in EPL play involved one team not scoring.

At +102, I would bet on one of the two sides to not net a goal.

Over/Under (O/U)

BET UNDER 2.5 (+133).

The value at plus-money for these teams to struggle to score with both teams’ leading goal-scoring option out is phenomenal.

Across all competitions, Arsenal has gone Under 2.5 goals in a game in five of its last eight outings. For Leicester, considering all its recent performances, it has gone Under 2.5 goals in three consecutive games.

Also, the first time these two teams met, Arsenal won 2-0. With Smith Rowe doubtful and Vardy out along with Arsenal’s terrific defense, I’ll take the UNDER 2.5 (+133).

Manchester United vs. Arsenal odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Thursday’s Manchester United vs. Arsenal odds and lines, with EPL picks and predictions.

On Wednesday afternoon, Arsenal (7 wins, 4 losses, 2 draws) travels to Old Trafford to take on Manchester United (5-5-3). Kickoff is scheduled for 3:15 p.m. ET. Below, we preview the Manchester United vs. Arsenal odds and lines, and make our best EPL bets, picks and predictions.

This Man U team looked legit back in late August. United had won five of its last six games and was a top-six EPL side. Flash forward to now, and it recently fired its manager and lost three of its last five matches.

While superstar addition F Cristiano Ronaldo has helped, the continued absence of M Paul Pogba is crippling. United is still a slight favorite at home against a surging Arsenal.

The Gunners are led by F Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. Arsenal has won four of its last five fixtures, bouncing up to fifth place on the table. The Gunners continue to be without key M Granit Xhaka who has been sidelined since the end of September.

“LEAN” to the DRAW (+265). These teams are relatively equally balanced, with star strikers and capable midfielders.

Man U and Arsenal have went Under 2.5 goals in each of their last five meetings with Arsenal keeping three straight clean sheets.

Arsenal may be the hotter side but it’s got a tall task in traveling to Old Trafford to take on a United team coming off a draw with EPL-leading Chelsea.

United also gets D Harry Maguire back from a one-match ban and D Luke Shaw is also expected to be available. Its defensive play should see improvement and be able to sustain the Arsenal attack. With that in mind, I’d rather play a draw than a side here.

Over/Under (O/U)

BET the UNDER 2.5 (+105) as the better side here.

While both sides have star-attacking players, neither has shown much offensive capability as of late. Arsenal is averaging just 1 goal per game over its last three matches while Manchester United has scored just 2 in their last three. Without Pogba and with two key defenders back, Man U should be able to defend but scoring could be another question.

Arsenal’s 17 goals against is tied for 6th best in the EPL as well so their defensive play is equally as solid.

Arsenal vs. Aston Villa odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Friday’s Arsenal vs. Aston Villa odds and lines, with EPL picks and predictions.

To kick off an exciting weekend of EPL action, Aston Villa (3 wins, 4 losses, 1 draw) will visit Arsenal (3 wins, 3, losses, 2 draws). The match is slated to kick off at 3 p.m. ET and will be held at Emirates Stadium. Below, we preview the Arsenal vs. Aston Villa odds and lines, and make our best EPL bets, picks and predictions.

In the first EPL match of the weekend and the only one on Friday, Arsenal will play host, currently sitting 12th on the table. They’ve been unimpressive so far this season, scoring just 7 goals in 8 games, allowing 12.

Now, they have been hot since getting to full strength, having not lost since August. They have two wins and three draws in their last five games. They’ll be challenged at home though as Aston Villa comes in right below them on the table.

Aston Villa has lost to two straight, one to Tottenham and one to the Wolves following a victory over Manchester United. They’ve scored 12 and given up 12 through their 8 matches.

Prediction

Arsenal 2, Aston Villa 1

Money line (ML)

BET on ARSENAL (-105) as the home favorite to get the job done. Since their Covid-19 outbreak within the club, they’ve been much better.

Getting players like star F Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang back in action has been huge for them. Arsenal will be without key M Granit Xhaka, giving 21-year-old Emile Smith Rowe a larger role.

Having not lost in almost two months, I’m taking the home team with momentum. Villa has some good performances, but two losses to mid-tier opponents are disappointing.

Over/Under (O/U)

“LEAN” to the OVER 2.5 (-130) as the better play.

While Villa may not come out on top, they do have F Danny Ings. He’s netted three on the season and vs. an Arsenal side that gave up 2 goals to Crystal Palace.

Both clubs have 3 clean sheets in 8 games. Each club also ranks in the bottom four in tackles. With a combined 24 goals having been given up, I’m going to bet on the stars to shine offensively rather than rely on flawed defenses.
