Arsenal vs Aston Villa Betting Tips PT 2

The bookmakers fancy Arsenal to win this one with relative ease as they are trading at a pretty solid 2/9 price tag right now while Aston Villa will be rewarding at a very solid 12/1 if they are to pull off the victory - which seems unlikely at this point. However, as many football observers (and many Arsenal fans) will tell you, you simply never know which Gunners side is going to show up and that’s probably going to compel a few punters to have a bash on Aston Villa or at least to back the draw, which is sitting at a pretty competitive 5/1 right now.

The bookmakers have priced the routine 2-0 victory at a very short price tag of 9/2 - usually a much lighter price than you’ll find in a standard correct score market. The 3-0 pays out at 11/2 while a mere 1-0 victory would reward at 6/1.
With Olivier Giroud in the goals these days you can bank on him putting in a solid performance and you’ll find him trading at a 7-2 margin to open or close the scoring while he’s at a slim 10/11 for an anytime goal in the match. With bookmakers only favouring a couple of goals here, it might make sense to take the extra value and back him to score first.
Alexis Sanchez remains the bookmakers favourite to strike in this match, however, and you’ll find him trading at 17/20 while the 1st goalscorer wager trades at a decent 10/3 margin.
Christian Benteke is getting the edge to open up the scoring for the Aston Villa side and bookmakers have him trading as low as 4/1 for an anytime goal in the match (which is a solid wager when you think about it) and he’s at 10/1 to open or close the scoring at any point. If you really feel like rolling back the years, why not back Joe Cole to score at any point at an 8/1 price tag if you see his name on the team sheets for the starting line-up.
Both Teams to Score is an interesting option in this one with Arsenal frequently looking like shipping a goal in a few of their recent matches. BTTS pays out at 27/20 while BTTS and Arsenal to win rewards at an 11/5 listing.
