Arsenal vs Chelsea Betting Tips: 11/2 Bet Builder play

Two of the Premier League's big six face off in north London on Saturday evening in a fixture that usually provides plenty of talking points

Arsenal will be hoping to make up some ground on Chelsea this weekend when they welcome Maurizio Sarri’s men to the Emirates Stadium.

The Gunners are out at 2/1 (3.0) with bet365 to win their ninth home game of the season, whilst the Blues are available at 13/10 (2.30) and a draw can be backed at 5/2 (3.50).

There are certainly arguments to be made for any result but using bet365’s Bet Builder, we have put together an 11/2 (6.50) play that would make for an entertaining clash between these two heavyweights.

The bet consists of: Both Teams to Score, the Second Half to have the most goals, Over four Chelsea corners, and Over one card for Arsenal.

A title formerly belonging to the ever-unpredictable Leicester City, Arsenal are the new kings of both teams to score. The selection has landed in 17 of the Gunners’ 22 matches this season, including seven of 11 at home.

It would also have been a winner in exactly half of Chelsea’s fixtures, as well as in six of the last eight meetings between these sides.

Scoring goals in the second half is where Arsenal excel, too, netting 32 of their 46 league goals after the break – including 19 of the 24 goals they have scored at the Emirates.

Chelsea almost invariably rack up the corner count in this fixture, having taken five or more in the last five meetings, and this season the Blues have averaged 5.20 per game away from home.

Finally, yellow cards are a staple of this London derby. The Gunners have been received more than one booking in the last five meetings and their players have totalled 22 cautions at home this season.

The 11/2 (6.50) shot, then, for this clash looks a solid selection in what could be a pivotal result in the race for a Champions League place.
