SHEFFIELD UNITED
Sheffield United are currently bottom of the English Premier League with 13 points from their 26 matches.
They have only won 1 of their last 10 League games and are coming off back-to-back defeats, 1-0 away to Wolves and 5-0 at home to Brighton.
The 1-0 defeat to Wolves was the first time they haven’t conceded more than 1 goal in 7 matches. 8 of their 13 points have come at home this season, but they have only taken 1 point from the last 12 they have played for in front of their own fans. Sheffield United have conceded 3 goals for every 1 they have scored at home this season.
ARSENAL
Arsenal are currently 3rd on the log and on an excellent run which has seen them win their last 6 matches.
They hammered Newcastle 4-1 at home last time out and their last away game was a 5-0 drubbing over Burnley. Prior to that they beat West Ham 6-0 on the road.
Arsenal have won their last 3 away matches and their last 4 away games have delivered profits for over 2.5 goal backers and in their last 2 away games they scored 11 goals without reply.
Head-to-Head
Arsenal beat Sheffield United 5-0 in the reverse fixture earlier this season and they won this fixture 3-0 last season.

Sheffield United 14/1
Draw 7/1
Arsenal 2/11
It is hard to argue with the bookmakers here, Arsenal are massive favourites for this game and the question is, surely just by how many they will win? The Gunners have scored 15 goals in their last 3 matches reaching the 4 goal mark in each of those games. I am going to bet on that trend continuing.
Suggested Bet: Arsenal, over 3.5 goals at 37/20
There are plenty of other markets including the Correct Score where Arsenal to win 5-0 is trading at 15/1, not quite enough to tempt me into this market, but take a scan through and see what you fancy .
Another favourite market of mine is the 1st Goalscorer where Bukayo Saka is trading as the 15/4 favourite and you can also get Anytime Goalscorer and Last Goalscorer markets.
