Crystal Palace vs Arsenal Bet Builder Tips
Bukayo Saka opened his account for the season with a stunning first half goal against Nottingham Forest in Gameweek 1, and we are backing him to find the net against Palace.
Saka has improved his goal tally in each of the last three campaigns, with 5 goals in 2020/21, 11 in 2021/22 and most recently, 14 in 2022/23. It would be no surprise to see him better that figure of 14 once again this season and if it were not for a certain Erling Haaland, he would be considerably shorter than the current 40/1 in the Premier League top scorer market.
The young Arsenal and England attacker is becoming one of the most effective players in the league and will also be on penalty duty for The Gunners this term. The last time Saka faced Crystal Palace he managed a brace and we’ll be hoping for more of the same this evening.
Next up we are taking Eberechi Eze to record one or more shots on target in the game. Roy Hodgson’s side managed a 1-0 win over newly promoted Sheffield United on the opening weekend with Eze letting off a whopping eight shots.
No player in the league recorded more shots in Gameweek 1 and when it comes to hitting the target, Eze ranked top for Palace last season. The 25-year-old has registered at least one shot on target in nine of his last 12 league appearances and looks a solid prospect to do so against Arsenal.
The final selection we have opted for on Monday evening is for Declan Rice to have one or more shots on target in the game. Not necessarily known for his goal scoring, we expect Rice’s figures to improve in this Arsenal side compared to at West Ham.
Against Nottingham Forest last week, Rice recorded three shots on target. By combining Saka to score, along with Eze and Rice to hit the target pays a generous looking 14/1 with Paddy Power or the Betfair Sportsbook.
