Arsenal continue to defend their position at the top of the Premier League table and will aim for a fourth consecutive league victory. During the week they had a difficult Champions League match away to Bayer Leverkusen, where they secured a 1-1 draw, with the return leg still to come.
Despite the busy schedule, Arsenal remain extremely strong at home. The “Gunners” have won their last five home matches in all competitions and since the start of the season only Manchester United have managed to leave the Emirates Stadium with a victory.
Prediction: Arsenal to Win & Under 3.5 Goals
The main prediction for this match is Arsenal to win with under 3.5 total goals.
Everton currently sit eighth in the standings and come into this game after two consecutive victories. They even managed to defeat Newcastle 3-2 away in their last visit.
Interestingly, Everton have been performing better away from home recently and have not lost an away match since December. However, their defeats on the road this season have mostly come against top teams such as Chelsea, Liverpool, and Manchester City.
Another important trend is the low-scoring nature of Everton’s away matches. Ten of their last twelve away games in all competitions have ended with under 2.5 goals.
Considering Arsenal’s strong home form and Everton’s tendency to keep matches relatively tight, the hosts appear likely to secure a controlled victory without the game becoming overly high-scoring.
