Arsenal vs Fulham Betting Tip 1: Eddie Nketiah to score first @ 5/1 with BetUK

Eddie Nketiah has proven to be a steady, reliable frontman in the absence of Gabriel Jesus and the 24-year-old put in a fine display in Arsenal’s 1-0 win on the road against Crystal Palace on Monday Night Football.

He’ll be keen to avenge what should’ve been a second consecutive game on the scoresheet this weekend after bagging the opener in the Gunners’ first game of the season against Nottingham Forest.

Nketiah thrived in a regular role following Jesus’ injury at the World Cup last year and with another opportunity to prove himself as the man to permanently lead the line under Mikel Arteta, expect the youngster to find the net once again against Fulham.

Arsenal vs Fulham Betting Tip 2: Arsenal to win by 2 or more goals @ 3/1 with BetUK

Arsenal’s last outing against Fulham was a 3-0 win and they haven’t to their London rivals in ten appearances, so the Gunners to win by two or more goals looks the value selection at 3/1 this weekend.

The Cottagers scraped past Everton on the opening weekend and fell to a 3-0 defeat against Brentford last time out. They’ll also be missing key centre-back Tim Ream at the Emirates, who saw red against the Bees for two bookable offences.

This should be a mismatch between a mid-table side and title challengers who are coming back home with two wins in their stride. Arsenal need to keep with the pace alongside Brighton and Manchester City at the top and these type of fixtures need to be routine wins.
