Chelsea vs Arsenal March 22nd Betting Preview

Chelsea and Arsenal are playing tomorrow in what is a huge game with big points on the line.  Chelsea sits atop the table with 66 points in 30 matches, while Arsenal is currently in third place with 62 points in 29 games.

It’s really a four horse race in the Premier League standings at the moment with Liverpool tied with Arsenal and Manchester City sitting on 60 points, but having only played 27 of their matches.

Match Odds

Here are the 1×2 odds from the Chelsea vs Arsenal match taken from Bet365.com:

Chelsea 1.85
Draw 3.60
Arsenal 4.60

Chelsea BettingChelsea is the favourite heading into this game at Stamford Bridge.  They are the home club and have been playing fairly well of late.  Chelsea are coming off a 1-0 loss at Aston Villa, but they won their previous three before that.

Chelsea has a ridiculous record of 13 wins, 2 draws and 0 losses at Stamford Bridge this year, which is the reason for the big favourite odds.

Arsenal is coming off a win in Tottenham, but their three games before that saw them lose twice and draw once with their only win being at home to lowly Sunderland.

Double Chance

Chelsea or Draw 1.20
Chelsea or Arsenal 1.29
Arsenal or Draw 1.95

In fifteen games this season Chelsea has not lost at home.  They are playing a formidable opponent in Arsenal, but I still think betting on the Chelsea or Draw double chance is a decent bet.  You could also simply place money on Chelsea and Draw in the 1×2 section to get this same outcome.

Both Teams To Score

The both teams to score odds are interesting for this match because each team is quite strong at both ends of the pitch.  Here are the odds:

Yes both teams score 1.95
No both teams don’t score 1.80

The both teams to score bet is easy to understand and adds a lot of excitement to a match because goals can pile up at any time over the 90 minutes.

In this one I like the both teams to score option.  Chelsea at home should find the back of the net at least once so it should be up to Arsenal whether both teams score.  Arsenal has scored 27 goals in their 15 away matches this season, which is the fourth most in the Premier League.  Chelsea has only allowed 9 goals in 15 matches at Stamford Bridge, so I’m thinking there is about a 50% chance of a Arsenal goal.

Even so I like the both teams to score bet because it adds excitement if you are watching the match without an allegiance.
