Arsenal vs Bournemouth Premier League Tips, Predictions & Odds
After being dumped out of the FA Cup and League Cup, leaving their quadruple and treble hopes in tatters, Arsenal are back to their bread and butter this weekend in the Premier League.
A first Premier League title since 2004 would, of course, register as a highly successful season for the Gunners, and they are still in pole position to do so, enjoying a nine-point lead over their rivals Manchester City coming into this weekend.
Here at Free Bets, we're hoping for a frantic and exciting end to the Premier League season!
Arsenal vs Bournemouth Tips
It’s their first Premier League fixture since a 2-0 win over Everton in mid-March, welcoming Bournemouth to the Emirates for the Saturday afternoon 12:30 game.
Bournemouth are enjoying a good spell of form after a topsy-turvy season on the south coast.
The Cherries are unbeaten in 11 Premier League matches, dating back to a 3-2 loss at home to the Gunners in early January, and have climbed up to 13th in the table, knocking on the door of a congested battle for European football next season.
There will be plenty of positivity in the Bournemouth camp.
They registered a double over Arsenal last season thanks to 2-0 and 2-1 wins, and will be looking to take advantage of the nervous energy around the Emirates this weekend.
Let’s take a look at three football betting tips for Saturday’s match:
Tip 1: Arsenal to win to nil at 13/8 with Paddy Power
If Arsenal are to get over the line in the race for the Premier League title, it’s going to be largely down to their defensive stubbornness.
The Gunners don’t look particularly free-flowing in front of goal at the moment (failing to score over two goals in a match across their last nine fixtures) but are continuing to pick up victories by slender margins.
They lead the way with 13 wins to nil this campaign, and another this weekend would be perfect timing to extend their lead at the top of the league to 12 points.
Bournemouth have drawn their last five Premier League matches, with three of those finishing 0-0.
Tip 2: Arsenal 1-0 Bournemouth at 8/1 with bet365
We’ve all heard the song “1-0 to the Arsenal”.
They may have only notched up six of these all season, but Saturday feels primed for a seventh as they work away at chopping down the Cherries defence.
Bournemouth have conceded the second most goals on the road this season but have tightened things up since the turn of the year.
Andoni Iraola’s side will be travelling to north London in the hope to snatch a point, but might have to do this with their backs against the wall for a majority of the 90+ minutes.
Tip 3: Kai Havertz to score and be shown at card at 25/2 with Ladbrokes
Kai Havertz came on in midweek to secure a 1-0 away in Lisbon in the Champions League, and we expect him to be rewarded with a start on Saturday.
The German is turning into a bit of a clutch player for the Gunners, so if there is a winner to be had then it’s hard to look too far away from the 26-year-old.
And why not throw a booking in there too? He can be pretty physical when he wants to be, and you just try and stop him taking his shirt off if he bags a late-ish winner.
