Arsenal vs Bournemouth Bet Builder Tips: 66/1 pick for goal-fest

It looks as though Arsenal will have to win their remaining three games of the Premier League season to stand any chance of winning their first title since 2004. The Gunners currently sit one point clear of the ominous Manchester City, but Pep Guardiola’s men have that all-important game in hand. If City win all four, there is simply nothing that Arsenal can do and they will win their fourth Premier League title in a row.

Arsenal must keep the pressure on their title rivals in an attempt to force a slip-up, and an early kick-off (12:30, TNT Sports) against Bournemouth at the Emirates on Saturday is the perfect chance to extend their lead - even if it's only for a few hours. Below you can find my Arsenal vs Bournemouth Bet Builder Tips as we head into another crucial weekend in the Premier League. 

Bukayo Saka and Dominic Solanke to score

I actually believe this is a game that Arsenal could slip up in, so I’m steering clear of any match result selection. Over the last 25 games, Bournemouth have accumulated the fifth-highest points tally, and have now broken into the top ten after a miserable start to the season. So they are going to give Arsenal a game, even away from home. 

I think they’ll find the net, and if the away side do score, it is almost certain to be their talisman Solanke. He’s now got 20 goals this season, and given its been ten games in a row that the Cherries have scored in, they should be able to test Arsenal. For the home side, let’s pick out Saka to find the net again. 

He’s been in fine form this season, and got another goal against Tottenham last time out, bringing his total to 15 league goals in 33 appearances. He should be able to find the net again in another vital match for Mikel Arteta’s men. 

Gabriel to score a header

Even as an individual selection at 15/2, I like this pick. Arsenal have scored 22 goals from set-pieces (not including penalties) this season. We saw at Spurs just how effective they are from corners and that total is the most in the league - four more than next-best Everton and six more than title rivals Manchester City. 

Picking out one of the big boys at the back to find the net from a set-piece makes perfect sense in my eyes, especially given that Bournemouth have conceded ten from dead-ball situations this term. I’m picking Gabriel to find the net with his head - as he has scored four in comparison to William Saliba’s total of two. Ben White also has four, but I’m backing the Brazilian to find the net again for this potent Arsenal team.
