Brentford vs Arsenal Betting Tips
Anytime goalscorer – Viktor Gyokeres @ 2.39
After a tricky start to his Arsenal career, Gyokeres has certainly found his scoring boots in recent weeks. He has netted in four of the last six matches across all competitions, and scored a brace against Sunderland after a strike in the 4-0 win at Leeds. We are backing the Swede to make it three consecutive Premier League matches with a goal.
Anytime goalscorer – Igor Thiago @ 3.03
Thiago is having an quite incredible season, with 17 top-flight goals in 25 appearances. While Arsenal are the best team in England defensively, stopping the Bees from buzzing on home soil may not be easy to achieve, even for the Gunners. And if Brentford do strike, their new talisman is likely to be the man behind it.
Arsenal to win and both teams to score @ 3.45
As we are backing two goalscorers, it feels only right to tip a BTTS selection. Brentford’s home record is the sixth-best in the division, but Arsenal have won more away games than any other team this season, also boasting a goal difference on their travels of +9. And the Gunners’ record of four consecutive wins at the Gtech only makes this selection look more appealing.
