Aston Villa vs Arsenal | Premier League Expert Predictions, Soccer Picks & Best Bets

[Music] [Applause] [Music] move to the biggest game in Europe please it's Aston Villa versus Arsenal and Aston Villa massive plus 330 at home Arsenal minus 130 now arsenal were around minus 1112 when these numbers come out strong for Arsenal draw is at plus 290 the under over is set at 2.75 and it's basically take your pick unders minus 110 overs minus 110 Arsenal and now minus 102 for giving up a 75 start Brad it's a massive game if Arsenal want to go and win the league they've basically got to go and do the business against the Villa side who put a pin in their balloon last year so they owe him yeah uh want to talk about a Revenge angle right if they pick up some points uh it's a totally different story last season uh losing 2 N and one nil in the last the two matches they played against Aston Villa um you want to talk about a game where the total didn't move at all since the open opened at uh 2.75 and stayed put because I was going to bet the other I was going to bet whichever way it moved the opposite side um initially naturally I lean uh and this is why this is why right naturally I lean the over in this match um if you think about Aston Villa home matches at Villa Park they're overs 2.5 was hitting 79% of their home match last season both teams to score was always hitting they didn't keep clean sheets um unless they played against Arsenal obviously but then when you look at the advanced metrics and the the metrics that flash hates the xgs the xgs were just so low in a lot of those matches where it hits overs even in like we looked to week one like the xgs on the shots that the goals that we saw like in the the Arsenal match with Saka had an XG on his goal of 0.03 same with the the goals in in the Villa match um so I was okay I was content with if this line ballooned to three and we got a a nice number I would play under that or if it went down to 2.5 and we got like something uh 115 I would play that so that's probably the best explanation of why I'm not playing this match I don't have a strong feeling of what's going to happen in the total or side and then I don't know I don't know flash I'm just not the kind of guy who wants to be laying minus 13 minus 140 for a for a a way win right especially against a top six team so I'm just going to end up passing I'm sure you guys will have better bets than me well yeah will have any bets going to be better than yours if you're not having one both teams to score and over for me I want to go of Arsenal so badly but I thought Villa looked exceptional last week with their pace and Power on the break and Arsenal are just growing in confidence I mean they were like hands and heels winning last week week 2- nil but George Villa is one of them sides where they best be making their points now before it gets busy in that Champions League season yeah I mean that's what I was going to say I don't understand how the the Champions League season Works yet and the whole set of bit s too confusing for me but I think VI season depends on how they do in Champions League we look at their their strength and to be fair they have got depth uh in the attacking roles you see OE Watkins can come off you can bring on a player like John Duran and he he came in clutch against West Ham they have got the the the the de but you've got to you know Factor the rim into the Champions League schedule it's going to be hard I left this as a hard avoid I'm not touching this game the only thing I can probably give you is both them to score but Arsenal yeah as as you said growing in confidence Villa also growing in confidence two really good managers two Spanish man two Spanish managers who will want to do one over the other Villa did it last year could Arsenal do it this year I think a lot of the title depends on these two these sort of games against Aston Villa Arsenal let themselves down last year and can they do the same I I don't know I like the Arsenal 21 to be honest I mean Harry you know I always give you stick Harry but I do I do like the 21 Arsenal I also I think it could be 22 Mitch is saying draw halim Arsenal fulltime I like that as well um but when you're going to give me plus 100 for both teams to score an over and that could be Villa win 41 Arsenal win 41 then i' I've got to go with it emry is a better tactician than Aletta sitting dark I tell you what you could take your pick because they're both absolutely outstanding they've both got the same type of players they've both got massive Pace they've got massive control I just think that Arsenal have got to turn up and deliver um that's why I had to sit on the fense as far as who who wins but in my bet at plus 100 I don't care who wins as long as I'm entertained and there's goals um yeah fingers crossed Villa home opener don't bet against them take the plus uh five which is basically the double chance as well from Philip Gordon uh let's have a little look at the official picks both teams score and over two and a half at plus 100 I expect odar to have plenty of the ball I think havit uh could go from strength to strength as well but then you look at the pace and Watkins and Villa being at home what a game this is make sure you uh you do enjoy it I think that it's going to really like let us know where Arsenal are and if Villa are ready to step in with the heavy [Music] [Applause] [Music] uh's let's get
