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.
