Gunners to bounce back on home turf

Arsenal play host to Brentford at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday, and the Gunners will be desperate to bounce back from their defeat at Everton last weekend.

It was a shock loss for the Gunners and it is now imperative for Mikel Arteta’s side that they put together another strong run if they are to go on and win the Premier League title.

Arsenal have not lost at home in the league this season, and the Emirates has become a fortress of late with some big home wins against the likes of Liverpool and Manchester United.

The Gunners have played nine times at home so far this season, and seven of them have been won while also conceding.

Brentford have firepower with Ivan Toney and Bryan Mbuemo, and the Bees have stung Manchester City, Liverpool and Manchester United already this season.

We can see Arsenal getting their title charge back on this weekend, although we expect them to concede at least once in the fixture.

Saka to rise to the occasion

Arsenal winger Bukayo Saka has enjoyed a strong campaign so far, and the Gunners will be hoping that he can continue that at home to Brentford.

In 20 Premier League fixtures, Saka has seven goals and seven assists, and the England international is a key cog in Arsenal’s attacking football.

He scored a brilliant goal against Manchester United in the Gunners’ previous game at the Emirates, and scored in last season’s home match against Brentford.

We are expecting Saka to dazzle once again at the weekend, and for the winger to get back on the scoresheet against the Bees.

Bees can strike from the penalty spot

Brentford are becoming big-time players in the Premier League, and are getting in all the right positions, according to the statistics.

Thomas Frank’s side have scored the most penalties in the division so far this season and have Toney to thank for that – the striker is one of the best from the spot in the world.

Arsenal will have moments when they are under the cosh, and that could lead to silly challenges such as the penalty given away at home to West Ham.

At 9/1, we think it is a nice price for Brentford to score from the spot, considering they have already netted five penalties this season.
