Liverpool vs Arsenal Betting Tips
Safe Bets
Both teams have scored in nine of their last ten games and kept relatively less clean sheets. Hence betting on both teams to score at odds of 1.61 (bet365) is a safe bet.
With both teams missing key attackers due to AFCON and playing back to back fixtures since Christmas, we expect a defensive and low scoring game, hence betting on under 11 corners being conceded in the game at odds of 1.72 (betway) is a safe bet.
With Liverpool missing Mane and Salah due to AFCON, Jota will be the key attacker for Liverpool, therefore betting on him to score at odds of 2.37 (betway) gives high returns at minimal risk.
Quick Rich
Betting on the result is always a good way to earn big. We expect Arsenal to dominate as Liverpool miss more than half of their first team players and even some key substitutes such as Minamino, Origi and Firmino and expect Arsenal to win 3-0, 3-1 or 3-2 at odds of 10.00 (betway).
Emile Smith Rowe has been one of the top scorers for Arsenal this season with nine goals and two assists, coming of the bench in most of his games. Therefore betting on him to take over three shots at odds of 3.00 (betway) is one of the best bets of the match
Win/Lose/Draw
Liverpool have only two wins in their last five games in regulation time, while Arsenal have five wins in their last seven games, hence Awe expect Arsenal to win this leg at odds of 3.50 (betway).
Bet During the Match
Firmino got a goal against Shrewsbury over the weekend and if he starts the match against Arsenal, betting on him to take over 3 shots at odds of 1.90 (betway) is a safe bet.
