Arsenal vs Atletico Madrid Predictions, Tips & Latest Odds
Craig Jones 
The Emirates Stadium hosts one of the standout fixtures from Tuesday night's Champions League action, as Arsenal welcome Atletico Madrid.
The Gunners are expected to challenge on all fronts this season, and come here on the back of a perfect start in this competition, two games and two wins.
Atletico have a home win over Frankfurt under their belts, but did lost in stoppage time at Liverpool in their opener.
Arsenal vs Atletico Madrid Tips
Exclusively here on Free Bets, I've got three tips for the game below, and also the latest match odds for this clash, so you can find the best value, whatever you're betting on.
Tip 1: Arsenal Win & BTTS
When you think of Atletico Madrid, you think of tight, defensive football that usually results in low scoring games.
But this is a changed team, and their ability to score goals centres my first bet, which is on Arsenal to win the game and both teams to score.
I think there's no doubt that Arsenal are the better team here, and at home they're incredibly strong. They've won their last five in all competitions, and actually only conceded one goal in those games.
But that doesn't push me towards them winning with a clean sheet, the sides they've kept out have been Fulham, West Ham, Olympiacos and Port Vale.
Coming against better teams, they have conceded, Newcastle, Manchester City and Liverpool have all scored past them.
Looking at Atletico, they've scored in every game they've played across all competitions this season, 11 in total. They include twice away at Liverpool plus five goals in games at home to both Real Madrid and Frankfurt.
I think Arsenal win this, but I can definitely see Atletico giving them a game, and getting on the scoresheet.
Tip 2: Half Time Correct Score 1-1 Draw
I've just spoke about goals in this game, and I don't think we are in for a slow start either, I think at 8/1, there's plenty to like about a 1-1 draw at half time here.
Atletico first, and they're quickly becoming known for a fast start.
They've scored inside the first 15 minutes in four of their last six games. The two they didn't score in, they missed a penalty inside the first 15 minutes in one, and had a goal ruled out by VAR within the first 15 minutes in the other.
Fine margins away from a perfect six from six where they've scored inside the first 15 minutes.
For Arsenal, we know they're going to want to have a lot of the ball early, and they've also got positive stats to back up this bet.
While not scoring as early as what Atletico do, they have scored a goal in the first half of four out of their five home games so far, three of those, they've scored once in the first half.
At 8/1, I think it's a fair shout for a 1-1 draw at half time, with both sides capable of getting on the scoresheet.
Tip 3: Both Teams to Score in Both Halves
The theme of goals have been running through all of my picks so far, so we're all in here, which probably means we're in for a dull 0-0 draw!
But the final pick, I can see us having a wild game that goes both ways, similar to Atletico's recent trip to Liverpool that ended 3-2.
They've form for scoring, as I've said, with a 5-1 win over Frankfurt in their other Champions League game.
I still think Arsenal will win, but both teams scoring in both halves, at double figure odds, has some appeal as a long shot pick.
Arsenal might be the best team defensively that Atletico have faced all season, but I'm still backing them to make a real game of this. I hope it's one for the neutrals, full of goals!
