Welcome to the weekly blog that tries
to put a few quid into your pockets. As ever, we will start by looking at The
Arsenal’s game against West Bromwich Albion on Sunday afternoon and see what
odds tempt us…
Mesut Ozil
got off the mark in midweek and must be a consideration at 5/2 to score anytime,
as is Aaron Ramsey who is on fire at the moment. It’s 10/3 that Ozil scores and
The Arsenal win (the same odds for Rambo by the way).
A longer
odds Goal Scorer bet worth considering is Mikel Arteta, whom is 11/2 to score
any time and must be worth a couple of quid if he starts as he will surely take
any penalties (and we must be due one soon).
Arsenal -1
is 15/8 or -2 is 9/2. Sooner or later if we continue in the manner we are
playing we are going to spank a side for a good few goals, keep your eyes out
for decent odds in this market.
Olivier Giroud
to score in both halves is 9/1, with Rambo a massive 25/1 in this market.
To score in
the first 10 minutes Giroud is 10/1 with Rambo 18/1. (Arteta is 33/1 and all it
takes is an early penalty for this to become a reality).
At the time
of writing I can’t find the odds on the first player to be booked or anytime
bookings. I Tweeted on the day of the match that Mathieu Flamini first booking was
at 15/2 and low and behold he duly delivered. His anytime booking odds dropped
markedly into 5/4 which to be fair offers very little value here. Keep an eye
on the matchday for the bookings market.
The Assist
market throws up ever decreasing odds for anytime assists for Ozil at 7/4 or he
is 13/2 to assist the first goal. As previously covered in recent blogs its
worth backing Arsenal’s fullbacks anytime assists with Kieran Gibbs 8/1 and Carl
Jenkinson 9/1 which offers a decent match-long bet and gives decent value.
Man of the Match
betting has Ozil at 6/1 with Rambo 7/1 they must be worth backing the way they
are playing.

Born in Mining Town of Doncaster in 1973. Supported Arsenal FC thanks to my first footballing hero who was Pat Jennings whom I loved. My first Arsenal Game was an away game at Grimsby Town in January 1986 ( 4-3 win thanks to a Charlie Nicholas Hat-Trick of Free-kicks). I’ve since followed The Arsenal Home, Away & Abroad and my wife still doesn’t know how much I paid for the CL final ticket v Barca!
My All-time Fave’ Arsenal player is probably Dennis Bergkamp although I have soft spots for Tony Adams, Rocky & Steve Williams (!).
