There's no doubt that Arsenal is a little hot in the betting market right now. The Gunners have generated a lot of hype for the new season and responded with two crushing wins to kick off the campaign, so naturally people are going crazy. A likely trip to Bournemouth will only add to the buzz surrounding the Gunners, 250 favorites in thePremier League match. That price seems a bit high for the visitors, but this is a matchup that suits them as Bournemouth don't have the scoring prowess or creativity in midfield to threaten Arsenal in counter-attacking.

As we saw against Manchester City, Bournemouth put his 10 players behind the ball, parked the bus and held out for their lives. you can do an admirable job. City are currently in a different stratosphere than Arsenal, but the task won't be much different at home on Saturday as the Cherries barely have the ball against the Gunners.
And last year Arsenal had problems breaking down teams that sat low and penalties filling his area, but with the addition of Gabriel Jesus, those problems so far have been eliminated. are mitigated. The 25-year-old Brazilian's movement and willingness to run to improve his defense give Arsenal's creative ball movers options they didn't have last season.
Perhaps Bournemouth's defense can hold them back in this match. Deaf, it's hard to imagine where the Cherries goals come from. Bournemouth scored his two goals in the opening game against Aston against Villa, but he was only 0.6 goals expected in his 180 minutes this season. Indeed, in one of those matches he was a 35/1 underdog as a Man He lost to City, but when Bournemouth made only 0.5 xG and almost no xG from open play. Even his 2-0 victory over the Villains was a pretty dismal performance as he didn't.
Betting on sports?
Arsenal need him to have the ball 70% of the match and even if he doesn't, he's so vulnerable against a team sorely lacking in creative players and finishers. It is not. Every team gets lucky and can score goals from corners and counterattacks, but the plus-money price for Arsenal in a shutout victory is hard to miss.
