Large sums are being placed on Arsenal to heap more misery on Everton tonight at Goodison Park.
It seems the 19/20 available on Arsenal to beat Everton this evening is attracting the attention of some of the bigger players. In the last 24 hours we’ve seen some large investments placed on the Gunners to win at Goodison Park – the biggest of which totalling just over £8,000.
Arsenal head to Merseyside unbeaten in their last 14 Premier League fixtures, having won their last three on the bounce. In contrast, Everton haven’t won in their last 5 games, picking up just seven points from their last 10. After conceding three goals away at Watford, an Arsenal forward line containing Ozil, Sanchez and Walcott will surely fancy their chances of scoring a few, heaping more misery on Everton and boss Ronald Koeman.
So, whilst the value of the bets may appear risky it’s not hard to see where the confidence stems from, and 19/20 might look a cracking price come 9.30pm this evening. Arsenal go into the match with a 51% chance of winning, with Everton down at 23% to record a home win.
Perhaps even more interestingly 76% of all bets on tonight’s game have been placed on the North Londoners, with 14% going on Everton, and 10% of punters backing the draw. Current prices see Arsenal at 19/20, Everton at 14/5, and the draw at 10/3.
