Arsenal vs Brentford Tips

Tip 1

BTTS only has a slender advantage over both teams not scoring at the Emirates in Premier League matches this season, with the split currently sitting at 53.3% to 46.7%.

The Gunners have kept a clean sheet against two of their last three opponents on home soil, with both Chelsea and Real Madrid blanking in North London across the last few weeks.

Brentford have also struggled for real consistency in recent times, with top teams like Liverpool, Nottingham Forest, Aston Villa, Brighton and Chelsea all successfully keeping them at bay.

Tip 2

That being said, Brentford are more than capable of carving out some chances for their forward threats, and a shots on target double comprised of Bryan Mbeumo and Yoane Wissa appeals at 3/1.

Both players are in the top 10 for shots on target across the entire division, with Mbeumo managing 34 from 68 efforts, while Wissa is on two fewer having registered one more shot in three fewer appearances.

In terms of success, the Cameroonian international has struck one in each of his last three matches, which have come against strong opposition in Bournemouth, Newcastle and then Chelsea, while his Congolese teammate has had at least one in five of his last seven outings.

Arsenal Form, Team News & Predicted Line-Up

The Gunners will be on cloud nine after the 3-0 dismantling of defending Champions League winners Real Madrid in North London on Tuesday, and despite that firm lead, they may still have their attention turned to that second leg in the Spanish capital next week.

That victory looks to have come at a cost, however, as two heroes of the night, Declan Rice and Bukayo Saka, were withdrawn late with knocks. They are sure to be rested for the crucial second leg, while Riccardo Calafiori, Gabriel, Takehiro Tomiyasu, Gabriel Jesus and Kai Havertz are all still absent.

Arsenal Predicted XI: Raya; White, Saliba, Kiwior, Tierney; Odegaard, Jorginho, Merino; Nwaneri, Trossard, Sterling.

Brentford Form, Team News & Predicted Line-Up

Thomas Frank’s men bounced back from a 2-1 defeat at St James’ Park last week with a hard earned point against European chasing Chelsea to maintain a four-point gap over Manchester United in 13th.

Despite welcoming back Rico Henry from a long layoff, the Bees still have five players in the treatment room: Fabio Carvalho, Igor Thiago, Josh Dasilva, Gustavo Nunes and Aaron Hickey.

Brentford Predicted XI: Flekken; Ajer, Collins, Van den Berg, Lewis-Potter; Norgaard, Janelt; Mbeumo, Damsgaard, Schade; Wissa.
