Reasons for Arsenal vs Chelsea Betting Tips

Arsenal have had a good summer so far and things are looking promising for new manager Unai Emery. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has been scoring goals as he prepares for the new Premier League season fixtures and they come into the match off the back of beating PSG 5-1. Lacazette scored twice in that match and he is forming a strong partnership with Aubameyang. Chelsea are still unsure if Hazard, Willian and Courtois will be in their starting 11 next season but they still have a strong group of players for this match. We’re expecting goals here with Arsenal coming out on top, the first of our Arsenal vs Chelsea predictions is Arsenal to win and BTTS. The best odds are 3/1 with Betway.

With the likes of Lacazette, Aubameyang, Morata and Pedro expected to be in the starting line-ups for this match, we’re spoilt for choice in the anytime goalscorer tips. For some bigger odds you could also have a first goalscorer bet but we’re sticking to the anytime market as we’re never sure of line-ups in pre-season friendlies. The anytime scorer tip and second of our Arsenal vs Chelsea betting tips is going to be in-form Alexandre Lacazette who is best price 13/8 with Betfred to score.

Chelsea were held to a 1-1 draw against Inter Milan in their last International Champions Cup match before winning on penalties. Arsenal put five past PSG, albeit they were without most of the World Cup players. The Gunners are playing strong line-ups this summer and we expect them to do so again, so for our correct score betting tip we’re going for an Arsenal victory. There have been some high scores already during this tournament so go for another one again. The correct score tip for Arsenal vs Chelsea is Arsenal to win 3-2 and the odds are 22/1 with bet365.

Arsenal Team News vs Chelsea

Unai Emery has been playing a relatively strong team in pre-season friendly matches so far. Mesut Ozil is expected to start with Aubameyang and Lacazette up front. New signing Sokratis will likely start in the heart of the defence. Danny Welbeck and new signing Lucas Torreira are not yet with the squad but may join up for a place on the bench. Iwobi and Mkhitaryan will also play some part.

Chelsea Team News vs Arsenal

Hazard, Willian amd Courtois are unlikely to play as there future is still in doubt. New signing Jorginho should play. Ross Barkley has been given game time this summer and he could line-up alongside him in midfield. David Luiz is another player looking to revitalise his Chelsea career under the new manager and Morata needs to keep impressing.
