Arsenal - Brighton & Hove Albion betting tips and odds

If you’re looking for a relatively safe result bet, a home win at odds of 1.65 is a solid option. That said, Brighton & Hove Albion may yet be able to pull off a surprise, maybe even in the form of a stalemate.

Considering what they’re up against, Albion can’t set their ambitions too high in this match. Playing as visitors at odds of 6.25 for an away win, calling them underdogs seems like an understatement.

Arsenal are coming on the back of an away defeat at Crystal Palace in the previous round of the Premier League. They were widely considered to be the stronger team before kick-off but severely underperformed throughout the game. The bout ended with a score of 3:0 – which is not an outcome many predictions saw coming.

The away team didn’t fare all that well the last time out at their home stadium against Norwich City, as both teams went home with a rather lukewarm single point. Whether this round will be any better remains to be seen, but everyone’s hoping for a more charged outing.

Among the best-placed teams in the season so far, the home team should be able to earn points here. They’ll need another 19 points in total to reach the table leaders, though.

These two teams have shown to be evenly matched throughout the season. They’ve recorded multiple draws since the competition began, which doesn’t sit well with Arsenal because they’re the favourites. They’ll have a shot at finally getting a positive score, though.

With zero injuries reported across the board, this is shaping up to be an exciting outing indeed. Both teams will have their complete squads at their disposal, so we can fully expect them to bring their A-game.

The 1.87 offered for Under 2.5 Goals bets in this match may seem a bit risky considering the market, but they’re well worth it compared to the probability of the outcome. That said, it’s a solid choice for value, but not necessarily safety.
