Leicester City - Arsenal betting tips and odds

Leicester City are the definition of underdogs in this fixture. With betting odds of 4.80, no punter will dare backing them up against Arsenal. It is a wise decision as well as hosts will have an extremely difficult task surviving this clash.

Arsenal are expected to have no hiccups going past The Foxes in this match and betting odds offered by the world’s top bookmakers are there to confirm it.

The Foxes’s previous Premier League match did not go their way, but not even the most stubborn fans would have predicted a different result against a team as strong as Manchester United . They played as visitors, and the top online bookmakers priced an away win at 6.00. They never recovered from some early concessions, and the score was brought to a conclusive 3:0 result before the end.

Despite most predictions favouring Arsenal in the previous round, they spent most of the first half playing from behind. Still, a focused and admirably played second half earned them 3 points for a 2:4 away victory at Aston Villa.

With more than 5 conceded goals over their latest 3 fixtures, Leicester’s performance leaves something to be desired. That said, savvy punters could be able to exploit this – think BTTS or Over 5 Goals markets, for example.

Arsenal’s defence seems to be their most prominent weakness at the moment. Having allowed 6 goals in their previous 3 games, it might be a good time to look at Over 3.5 Goals betting markets when it comes to their next match.

Arsenal won the home game they played against The Foxes earlier in the season, and they did so with a notable goal difference. Winning this showdown as well would firmly establish them as the better team.

Our tip is to risk an Over 3.5 Goals wager. The 2.35 are worth giving up the relative safety of a simpler Over 2.5. That said, it’s still a relatively riskier bet than what some punters might prefer.
