Crystal Palace - Arsenal betting tips and odds

The most probable outcome of this match is Crystal Palace getting completely overwhelmed. They are underdogs by a considerable margin, and it’s not likely even the most optimistic of their fans are expecting them to pull off a victory.

The odds are clearly leaning in the away team’s favour, though the difference is by no means insurmountable. Crystal Palace will have to give their all to come out on top, though, while Arsenal merely have to make sure not to make major mistakes.

The Eagles showcased an excellent ability to perform under pressure during their previous home game against Aston Villa . They were losing against a considerably stronger opponent during half-time but managed to turn the game around and win by a 1-goal margin (3:2).

Arsenal’s latest Premier League match surprised both spectators and bookmakers with a shocking 0:1 away win against Chelsea. The Gunners were clear underdogs in this matchup, yet they stayed ahead throughout the match.

A quick look at recent history shows us that Crystal Palace don’t tend to fare too well at Selhurst Park despite the home-field advantage. Results aside, they’ve conceded more than 5 goals in their previous 3 home games alone.

This match might present a rare opportunity to go for an Over 4.5 Goals bet. The Gunners have netted 6 goals in each of their previous 3 games – which is quite a track record.

Despite being favourites, Arsenal couldn’t manage to secure a victory the last time they played against Crystal Palace. This gives the hosts some precedent when it comes to beating the odds, but it’s not a strong case.

The hosts weren’t considered likely to win either way, but they are in a slightly worse position now. Mamadou Sakho, James McArthur, Nathan Ferguson, Connor Wickham have all been injured recently, leaving the team’s coach with a narrower range of options.

With no injuries to speak of on the visiting side, the favourites will be heading into this fixture with full force.

While it’s risky as far as betting predictions go, a Draw/Away bet in the Half Time/Full Time market is the best place to find betting value in this match. Simply put, the 4.50 odds outweigh the relatively small implied probability.
