Best Value Bets for Arsenal + United as Heavy Favorites
LONDON – Arsenal and Manchester United are huge favorites against their Matchweek 3 opponents on Saturday.
Betting on alternate legal sports betting spreads is the best way to get value from the heavy favorites.
Arsenal Vs Fulham Betting Lines
Arsenal won each of their last five matches, while Fulham is 2-3 across that span. Also, Arsenal hasn’t lost to Fulham in over a decade, making the -460 moneyline odds for Arsenal to defeat Fulham again a near lock.
However, with such short odds there are other bets at legal online sportsbooks that provide more betting value. There are +152 odds for Arsenal to cover an alternate spread of 2.5 goals in Saturday’s match against Fulham.
Arsenal beat Fulham by 2.5 goals in four of their last six head-to-head meetings.
This United First Half Spread Bet Has +290 Odds
Manchester United is favored to cover the 1.5-goal match spread with -118 odds, but huge value is offered for United to cover this spread in the first half.
Manchester United Vs Nottingham Forest Betting Lines
Manchester United played four matches against Nottingham in the last nine months, winning all four by a combined score of 10-0. Odds for betting on soccer spreads at 1.5 goals (-118) for the match and 1.5 goals (+290) for the first half are vastly different but both have value.
United covered a 1.5-goal spread in each of their four victories against Nottingham since 1999. They covered a 1.5-goal first half spread with +290 odds in half of those matches, and covered a 0.5, 1-goal first half spread (+108) in three of four.
Nottingham failed to cover a 1.5-goal first half spread in two of their last four matches, giving value to the +290 odds for Manchester United to dominate early on Saturday morning.
