Premier League fans will be in for a treat this Wednesday as Arsenal and Manchester City — the top two teams in the EPL table — go head-to-head at Emirates Stadium. While Arsenal have a game in hand, a City win would push them into top spot and set up a fascinating run home. Here are our free EPL betting picks for this pivotal battle.
In this game, we are taking the home underdogs. Arsenal have been the best team in the Premier League this season, and while they have recently been on a skid, they should show up for this contest. Manchester City have been up and down in recent performances, but they played really well in a win over the weekend and, as a result, the betting sites think they are all the way back. Arsenal are a different beast, however, and at Emirates Stadium they have a big advantage with eight wins and two draws in front of their home fans this season. We expect Arsenal to control the tempo of this game and come away with a massive win.
While each team is capable of piling on the goals, we think the under is the play. In a game this important, the players will be wary of making a mistake and that could create a tense style. When that happens, the game can slow down and the defense should shine. For as good as each attack is, both squads also possess a solid defense and goals should be hard to come by. Both teams have a top-three defense when it comes to conceding goals, and we expect that to show up.
If Arsenal are to win this game, Bukayo Saka will have to make an impact. And considering his recent performances, there’s a good chance he will. While Saka doesn’t score a ton of goals, he is consistently Arsenal’s most creative man moving forward and his vision gives the Gunners an edge in attack. Saka has three goals in his last seven Premier League contests, and while City will be hard to break down, Saka has the talent to produce that individual moment of brilliance. Take the 21-year-old Englishman to score as he continues his ascent into the elite tier of Premier League attackers.
