Arsenal V Everton Predictions & Betting Odds

Arsenal v Everton Betting Tips – Premier League 3rd February 5.30pm

The Gunners are going through a bit of tough time at the moment and their slack away form continued in midweek as they suffered a shock 3-1 loss at the Liberty Stadium against Swansea. They will be looking to improve on their home form which has seen them win just two of their last five as well. Everton though have fallen out of form on their travels and the Toffees have been struggling for goals recently as well.

Arsenal News and Form

The Gunners entered into a flurry of transfer action towards the end of January to try and bolster their fortunes. After swapping Alexis Sanchez for Henrikh Mkhitaryan and then bringing striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang on the final day of the January transfer window (which saw Olivier Giroud go to Chelsea) there was a bit of renewed hope for the Gunners. However, they were sunk in midweek in a heavy 3-1 loss out at relegation-threatened Swansea. That was a really poor defensive showing from the North Londoners and it leaves them with two defeats in their last three Premier League games (W1) and just one win in their last five played (D2 L2). Their form over their last five home games is W2 D2 L1. While Aubameyang should bring the goals which is important as summer signing Alexandre Lacazette is well out of form, defensively there are still big concerns about Arsenal. There have shipped in each of their last seven league games now and in their last three at home they have conceded six. So over 2.5 goals at bet365 is worth a flutter at 3/5 odds* (betting odds taken January 31st at 6:38 p.m.). Arsenal have produced a very good W9 D2 L1 record at the Emirates this season in the top flight, but they have just been struggling to find their top form.

Everton News and Form

Everton haven’t been having a great time of things since around mid-December with wins hard to come by. They broke a six-match winless streak in midweek with a 2-1 win over Leicester at Goodison Park. Away from home, they have lost their last two, going down against Bournemouth and then at Tottenham in a heavy 4-0 loss. They haven’t been scoring freely at all recently, and they have only managed the one goal in their last three away games now and have scored in just two of their last six overall home and away. Overall their away form is only W1 D5 L6 this season away from Goodison Park and there has only been the eight away goals scored by the club, which is going to be highly disappointing for them. Their defensive record doesn’t offer much solace either as they have conceded at an average of 1.9 goals per game. But just because Arsenal haven’t been good at the back, both teams to score at be365 for 21/20* (betting odds taken January 31st at 6:38 p.m.) has to be worth considering. Everton have scored 62% of their away goals in the second half of matches and they have only scored two opening goals away from Goodison all season.

Arsenal v Everton Head to Head

The Gunners have good strong form going over Everton, being on a four-match winning streak on home soil against them in all competitions. That has to count for something. Everton have managed to win just one of their last seven against the Toffees in all exemptions now. Arsenal have scored at least two goals in six of their last seven against the Merseysiders.
