Arsenal kick-off the Saturday action with a trip to Goodison Park to face an Everton side look for some resurgence under new boss Sean Dyche. The Gunners can increase their lead a the top of the Premier League table to eight points as Manchester City do not play Tottenham Hotspur until Sunday (February 5).
Mikel Arteta's side will be keen to make sure they are in the driving seat as the season progresses and are 2/5 favourites with Betway to get all three points while the hosts are 15/2 and a draw is 7/2. However, facing Sean Dyche is a bit of banana-skin situation for the Spaniard. In their five meetings since Arteta took over at the Emirates Stadium, the Gunners have only picked up one win in five and drawing another three.
However, the bookmakers are pricing Martin Odegaard to stand out ahead of the trip with a goal from outside the box at 7/1. The captain has been in brilliant form of late with the eight goal involvements in the last six Premier League matches and Betway's Chad Yeomans reckon his form will continue this weekend.
He said: “Arsenal have been flying high at the top of the table for some time now and questions keep being asked about when the balloon will burst. Could the “new manager bounce” of getting Sean Dyche in be the catalyst, not only for Everton’s season, but being a turning point in Arsenal’s at the top?
“There’s little to suggest the latter with Arsenal odds-on to win, but we’ve boosted Odegaard to score from outside the box to 7/1, following a flurry of successful attempts this season from their captain and we’ve boosted new signing Trossard to 5/1 to score the first goal of the game. He has looked very dangerous on his two appearances for the club so far.”
Tip
- Martin Odegaard to score from outside the box - 7/1
