Premier League Matchday 9 Preview: Arsenal set for Liverpool Test

Punters are in for a treat this weekend, with the latest round of matches in the Premier League offering some enticing betting opportunities.

The standout fixture is on Sunday as title hopefuls Arsenal go head-to-head with table-topping Liverpool at the Emirates Stadium.

Read on as we look at some of the top Premier League games for Matchday 9 to highlight the key angles to consider on football betting sites this weekend.

Highlights

  • Arsenal face test of title credentials.
  • Short-priced treble looks tempting.
  • Over 1.5 goals multiple worth chancing.

Arsenal Cannot Afford to Slip-up Against Liverpool

Arsenal’s title hopes suffered a blow last weekend as they slipped to a defeat at Bournemouth and they cannot a afford a similar outcome against Liverpool.

A victory at the Emirates would move the Reds seven points clear of Arsenal, which would be a sizeable advantage to take into the rest of the season.

With the Gunners likely to keep things tight, odds of 12/5 on several betting apps for the game to finish as a draw are a tempting proposition.

Short-Priced Treble Can Pay Dividends

Aston Villa, Brighton & Hove Albion and Chelsea have high hopes of challenging for Champions League qualification this season.

The trio face Bournemouth, Wolverhampton Wanderers and Newcastle United respectively this weekend and are each fancied to record home victories.

Combined odds for the treble of just over 9/2 on UK betting sites look well worth chancing given none of the visiting teams fare well on the road.

Over 1.5 Goals Acca Should Deliver

Eighty games have been played in the Premier League this season and just 13 of them have finished goalless or been won by a single goal.

The composition of the fixtures on Matchday 9 points towards each game finishing above the ‘over 1.5 goals’ mark this weekend.

On that basis, odds of almost 11/2 on betting sites for an over 1.5 goals ten-fold should give punters a good run for their money.
