Command Analysis
Arsenal
Current form
Arsenal have had a seven-match winning streak since the start of the season, taking into account all tournaments. In particular, during this period, they managed to start with an away victory over Napoli in the Champions League with a minimum score of 1:0. However, on the eve of the international break, the impressive series of the Gunners was interrupted. In the Premier League, the Londoners did not cope with Brighton on the road - they lost with a score of 0:3.
After a break for the national team matches, Arsenal played a difficult game with Leeds in the Premier League (2:1). The opponent led 1-0 in the score until the 62nd minute, but the Gunners turned the game in their favor. Bruno Guimaraes, who came on as a substitute, scored the winning goal. We pay attention to this particular moment, because Mikel Arteta has a solid depth of the squad, he can enhance the game with his substitutions, and this is important when you have to play in a tight schedule. Arsenal are in second place in the Premier League standings, three points behind Manchester City.
Disqualifications and injuries
Tsolis and Saliba are on the injured list. Entering the Inkapier field is 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 seven of the previous eight matches.
Lille made a successful start in Ligue 1, scored 13 points in six rounds, with which they are in second place. The gap from the leading Monaco is only one point. The Dogs suffered their only defeat on the road from Nice with a score of 1:2. In the national championship, Davide Ancelotti's wards are distinguished by their reliable defensive play, they conceded only four goals, and they scored four victories with a dry score. However, in the Champions League, the defense gave a serious setback. In the first round, Lille lost to Betis (2:3). From the 56th minute, they played with ten players after Mbappe was eliminated, but all the goals in that meeting were scored before that moment.
Disqualifications and injuries
Mbappe will serve his suspension. Igamane is injured, and Santos and Perrault are questionable.
Interesting betting trends
In four of the last five matches against Lille, no more than one goal was scored in the first half.
In three of the previous four matches, Lille's players were offside more often than their opponents.
Arsenal has been second to none at the Emirates since the start of the season, scoring three wins with a total score of 7:2. Even when not everything works out on the pitch, as it did the day before with Leeds, Mikel Arteta has the opportunity to strengthen the game with substitutions, the depth of the squad is very solid for the Gunners.
Lille failed defensively against Betis at the start of the Champions League, conceding three goals. You can see in individual matches how high pressure fails, gaps appear between the lines. Arsenal can quickly develop attacks when they manage to intercept the ball. In attack, the Gunners can expect threats from any player, and their individual skills are at a high level. We believe that Mikel Arteta's team will surely score three points.
Our betting tip is that Arsenal will win with an Asian handicap (-1.5) by a factor of 1.75
Obviously, it is Arsenal who will dictate their terms and conduct the game on their own field. In the previous three matches with the Gunners, at least three goals were scored. Lille has a super-productive game in the first round of the Champions League against Betis. We expect that the opponents will enjoy productive football today.
The second bet is a total of more than three goals with a coefficient of 1.90
Betting on corners
Despite not all their successes, Arsenal lost in three of the previous four matches on corners. Based on this trend and the odds of the bookmakers, we recommend another bet on the game.
Prediction – Lille wins on corners with a handicap (+3.5) with a coefficient of 1.92
