Arsenal went four rounds without losing on points in the Premier League, but in the last game they suffered a crushing 0-3 defeat away from Brighton. The failure led to Manchester City becoming the sole leader in the standings. On October 10, the Gunners will host Leeds on their own field and will try to rehabilitate themselves for the latest setback. Will Mikel Arteta's team be able to confidently beat the Peacocks today? - the answer is in our betting tip
Command Analysis
Arsenal
Current form
Arsenal got off to a more than confident start to the new season, immediately producing a series of seven wins, taking into account all tournaments. In particular, the Gunners won four meetings in the Premier League with a total score of 8:1, demonstrated a reliable defensive game. However, in the fifth round, there was a misfire away from Brighton. Mikel Arteta's team lost with a score of 0:3. There was a familiar advantage in possession of the ball, but the opponent did not allow him to quickly develop attacks and generally get close to the goal – the Londoners scored only two shots on target. In general, it's obviously too early to talk about a recession after one unsuccessful match, especially since there was a long pause. Nevertheless, Arsenal is only second in the standings, three points behind Manchester City.
Disqualifications and injuries
Saliba and Tsolis are injured. Havertz, Konsa, Rice, Mosquera, White, Douman are questionable.
Interesting betting trends
In four of the last five matches Arsenal have not won in the first half.
Arsenal players fouled less often than their opponents in the previous five matches.
Approximate line–up: Raya – Timber, Inkapier, Gabriel, Calafiori - Lewis-Skelly, B. Guimaraes – Saca, Edegore, Eze – Diekeres.
Leeds United
Current form
Leeds, like Arsenal, have had only one defeat since the start of the season, taking into account all tournaments, which happened against Chelsea in the League Cup (3-6). The Peacocks have not lost in the Premier League and are in a high fifth place with nine points. In the last round, Leeds drew 0-0 with Crystal Palace on their own field. Daniel Farke's team is very good at adapting to the opponent, demonstrating team football, where each player clearly knows what to do with the ball in a particular situation. The Peacocks conceded only three goals in four rounds – only Everton has the same level of reliability in defense.
Disqualifications and injuries
Joseph, Rawdon and D. James are injured. The entry of Wilson and Baoya into the field is questionable.
Interesting betting trends
In four of Leeds' last five matches, more than one goal has not been scored in the first half.
More than three offsides were recorded in four of the previous five matches involving Leeds.
Leeds have not lost since the start of the season in the Premier League, but there was a misfire in the League Cup with a crushing defeat by Chelsea with six goals conceded. We have a game ahead against Arsenal, who have lost in eight face-to-face meetings in a row, and in the last three cases with a difference of at least three goals.
After the misfire with Brighton, Mikel Arteta's players will obviously be extremely motivated to rehabilitate themselves and score three points, because Manchester City has taken the lead. It's obviously too early to draw conclusions about the decline in one game with the Seagulls, especially since the Gunners have been on a seven-win streak since the beginning of the season. We believe that the Londoners will once again confidently beat a convenient opponent today.
Our betting tip is that Arsenal will win with an Asian handicap (-1.5) for a coefficient of 2.18
Arsenal's defense allowed itself to fail only with Brighton, conceding three goals. Before that, the Gunners had not conceded in three of the four rounds. We expect in the betting tip that the Londoners will win back to zero, as they did in three of the four previous face-to-face matches.
The second bet is that Leeds will not score with a coefficient of 1.95
Betting on corners
Arsenal have beaten their opponents on corners in four of their last five matches. Obviously, the Gunners will play number one on their own field, they will spend a lot of time at someone else's goal and once again they will make much more serves from the corner flag than the opponent.
Prediction – Arsenal win on corners with a handicap (-3.5) with a coefficient of 1.82
