Gunners eye vital victory

Arsenal will hope to bounce back from successive defeats on Wednesday night when they host struggling Sevilla on matchday four of the Champions League.

An Arsenal win and a victory for Lens in Eindhoven would be enough to take the Gunners through to the round of 16 and ease the pain of those setbacks at West Ham United and Newcastle United.

A return to the Emirates, where they boast an excellent home record of five wins and two draws in seven matches this season, will aid the cause of Mikel Arteta’s side. 

Sevilla are finding the going tough this season and find themselves 15th in La Liga. However, they do find the net with regularity, scoring in 14 of their 16 outings in all competitions this term. They could bag a consolation against an Arsenal outfit who have conceded in four of their last five games.

Soumare must temper approach

Defensive midfielder Boubakary Soumare has cemented his place in Sevilla’s starting line-up over the past few weeks following his summer move from Leicester, but his discipline can be an issue.

After a few appearances from the bench in September, Soumare has started four of Sevilla’s last five games and has been booked on three occasions.

That includes being shown a yellow card last time out against Celta Vigo, and he found himself the focus of the referee’s ire on plenty of occasions for Leicester, picking up nine bookings in 26 Premier League appearances last term and averaging a card every 181 minutes.

Ocampos can threaten

Arsenal have won four of their last five home games and should have the beating of an out-of-sorts Sevilla outfit.

The Gunners were 2-1 winners in Spain last month and backing a home win by one goal looks a nice starting point for a same-game multiple.

Backing Sevilla to pick up at least three cautions at the Emirates appeals as the second leg of our bet builder. The Andalusians picked up five yellows in their latest league match against Celta Vigo at the weekend, following on from four against Cadiz and five against Real Madrid and Rayo Vallecano. 

While the Gunners ought to dominate, Sevilla carry plenty of attacking threat and Lucas Ocampos is a player to keep an eye on. Only Youssef En-Nesyri has had more shots on target for Sevilla this season and seven of his 10 on-target attempts this term have come in his last four appearances.

A bet builder on these three outcomes pays almost 15/1 with Paddy Power.
