Premier League, Sunday, 14.04.2024
In the late Sunday match, there will be another highlight in the Premier League. The Gunners host the Villans.
On the one hand, it’s a real top-of-the-table clash when first meets fifth. At the same time, it also marks the return of guest coach Unai Emery to his old stomping ground.
Accordingly, my Arsenal Aston Villa betting tip is that it will be a racy game in which the Londoners will have the better chances
As league leaders, the Gunners will welcome the team they lost 1-0 to in December.
They cannot afford to lose again. Together with Liverpool and Manchester City, every point is currently at stake in the title race
However, things have looked very good for them recently. They have won ten of their last eleven league games and only drawn once.
In each of their victories, the capital team have scored at least two goals. They also scored twice against FC Bayern during the week
If the home side win again on Sunday and score two or more goals, top betting providers such as Betway are predicting odds of just over 1.40.
The leverage in the Arsenal Aston Villa betting tip should therefore be set a little higher if you want to play a more lucrative bet. One option could also be a handicap bet.
The odds at our soccer betting providers are around 1.70 if the Gunners win with at least a two-goal difference
But where does this blatant optimism from the bookmakers come from? After all, the Villans are no pushovers, as the whole season has shown so far.
The visitors seem to be running out of steam at the moment. After they could have climbed to the top of the table twice around Christmas, there have been minor setbacks of late.
Although they recently lost 4-1 at Manchester City, there are two reasons for hope. One is that they have only lost two away games in a row under Emery
The other is that the Birmingham side have not lost in their last nine games in the English capital (6S, 3U).
Should they not be beaten for a tenth time, the bookmakers at Crazybuzzer predict odds of around 3.50 in the Arsenal Aston Villa betting tip.
However, caution is advised. The Emirates Stadium has not been a good place for them in recent years. They have lost five of their last six visits here (1S).
At the same time, it’s also a clash of the ballers. Both the Gunners and the Villans currently have in-form players in their ranks.
Bukayo Saka is currently pulling the strings for the home side. He has scored eleven goals in eleven league games recently (9 goals, 1 assist)
Ollie Watkins is currently in even better form for the visitors with nine goals and two assists in eleven games.
With many of our top bookies you will find direct comparison odds in the Arsenal Aston Villa betting tip. If Saka wins the private duel and scores more often, the odds are just over 2.90.
Intertops has an odds boost to offer. If Arsenal win and neither team scores, the bookmaker with a German license will offer 2.40 instead of 2.19.
In my eyes, the home side are the favorites. But it won’t be a walk in the park, even if the visitors will certainly lack freshness.
Mikel Arteta will therefore set his men up well and hope that they take an early lead, as they did against Bayern recently.
My Arsenal Aston Villa tip is therefore: The Gunners win the first half
