Will Arsenal keep a top-3 spot in the English Premier League by the end of the 16th round? To accomplish this, they should defeat Everton at the "Emirates," which isn't the most tough task. Furthermore, the "Gunners" have actually gained excellent momentum and are attempting to chase down Liverpool. Everton's goals for the season are more modest. Most notably, relegation is not currently a threat. However, Arsenal frequently stumbles against such groups. Therefore, we will consider different choices to make the prediction optimal.

Head-to-Head

In 37 head-to-head matches, Arsenal has a 62 percent win rate. Last season, they had a considerable playing advantage in both matches. However, in each case, they handled to pull ahead by just one objective (1:0, 2:1). Significantly, in London, the "Gunners" have actually won 10 out of 11 head-to-head matches. In these cases, they scored a minimum of 2 goals. Thinking about the group's existing type, we suggest a bet on Arsenal's overall over 1.5.

Arsenal

It has actually ended up being evident this season that Arsenal with Ødegaard and without him are two different teams. The Norwegian totally returned to action a month earlier. The Londoners have not suffered a single defeat during this time and just drew twice. They failed to beat Chelsea (1:1) and Fulham (1:1). In the latter case, luck was not on the "Gunners'" side, as they controlled on the field. The challenger had only two shots on goal, however that sufficed for a draw. Just recently, Arsenal hosted Monaco in the Champions League and won with class (3:0). Thanks to this, they went up to 3rd place and are going after Liverpool in the English Premier League. It is worth noting that the group is experiencing personnel losses in defence. The key one is Gabriel, who theoretically might play against Everton The involvement of Calafiori and Zinchenko is doubtful. Nevertheless, Tomiyasu and White will not play.

Everton

Everton drew against Fulham (1:1) at the end of October and then went a month without scoring. Nevertheless, there was a global break in November, so the team played only four matches. During this period, they drew two times but then suffered a heavy defeat from Manchester United (0:4). In their last game, the "Toffees" mirrored the score against Wolverhampton (4:0), marking their most significant win of the season. Especially, Ashley Young opened the scoring, who at 39 years old remains the group's primary right-back. By halftime, Everton led by two objectives, and in the second half, 2 own objectives made the distinction unseemly. The Merseyside derby was supposed to take place last round however was postponed due to weather conditions. It needs to be noted that Garner and Airogbunam will not play in the upcoming match, as they have been out because October. Keane missed out on two matches but is close to healing.

Referee and Fouls

The main referee for the match is Craig Pawson. This season, he has officiated eight Premier League matches. Usually, the referee tape-recorded 24 fouls and scored 4.25 yellow cards.

Arsenal has the advantage in fouls this season-- 12.3 versus 10.9. The team likes to control the ball but does not forget about pushing, which increases the danger of committing fouls. Therefore, a bet on Arsenal's total fouls of over 9.5 deserves considering.

Goal Prediction

Arsenal usually begins matches very actively. They try to score an early goal and after that do not avoid pulling away closer to their own objective. For that reason, the group routinely ratings in the first half. This has actually held true in 12 of their last 14 home matches. For this reason, a bet on Arsenal to score in the 1st half is reasonably anticipated.

Corners Prediction

The benefit in corners this season is with Arsenal-- 6.7 against 4.3. There are an average of 10 corners in matches involving them, while Everton has even fewer-- 9.8. For that reason, we lean towards a bet on overall corners under 10.5.

Match Forecast

The preferred for the upcoming match is Arsenal. Just recently, they had an easy match versus Monaco. There is a high probability that the encounter with Everton will be much more tough. The challenger will defend with a low block. In such a scenario, set-pieces need to concern aid. This season, Arsenal's set pieces have been impressive. Therefore, we note a potential exact score of 2:1.

Last season, Arsenal did not beat Everton by more than one objective margin even as soon as. If they open the scoring, they might play more strictly in defence in the upcoming match. Furthermore, the objective distinction is not as important at this stage of the season. For that reason, as a key bet, we recommend Everton win with a +2 handicap, specifically given that they have not lost by more than one goal margin in 13 of their last 14 matches.
