Arsenal vs Everton – Predictions and Betting Odds

Arsenal on a High After Beating Manchester United

Mikel Arteta’s side came from behind to secure a last-gasp win against the Red Devils just before the international break. The victory also saw Gabriel Jesus open his goal tally for the season after returning from an injury. Despite the unbeaten start, the Gunners have not been at their clinical best, with injuries and rotation affecting the squad chemistry.

With Champions League games just around the corner, Arteta would look to stick with his tried and tested starting lineup and hope to produce good results.

Toffees Looking To Climb Out of the Relegation Zone

Sean Dyche’s men came away with their first point of the season after a hard-earned draw at Bramall Lane against fellow relegation rivals Sheffield United. After losing some key players like Demarai Gray and Alex Iwobi in the transfer window, the Toffees find themselves in a difficult situation and will be looking for new signings like Beto and Youssef Chermiti to provide a much-needed spark.

Recent Head-to-Head

Arsenal trounced the Merseyside club in their last meeting a little over six months ago. Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Martinelli, and Martin Odegaard were all on the scoresheet as the Gunners won 4-0.

However, Arsenal have been unable to get a result at Goodison Park in the last six years, losing the last three in the Toffees’ home turf. Odegaard and his team would be looking to right that wrong this time around.

Arsenal vs Everton Prediction

This could turn out to be a one-sided affair with the North Londoners enjoying a bulk of the possession, and Dyche’s side sitting back and trying to attack and catch Arsenal off-guard on the counter. Everton left-back Ashley Young could be in for a difficult shift as he tries to contend with Saka. Martinelli and Havertz should also have some joy on the left flank.

On the flip side, young English centre-back Jarrad Branthwaite could prove to be a tough opponent for the likes of Eddie Nketiah and Jesus, while Beto can cause problems with his trickery and pace. Last Word on Football predicts a comfortable 3-0 victory for the winning side as they put the ghosts of their past at this ground to bed.

Best Odds for Arsenal vs Everton

The Gunners are the clear and unsurprising favourites to win this fixture. At the time of writing, they are 3/2 to win, while an Everton victory is rated at 13/2.
