There are only two 3pm Premier League kick offs on Saturday, and one of them features high flying Arsenal taking on bottom side Sheffield United at the Emirates. The Blades have picked up just one point so far this season, so expectations will be low as they visit one of the in-form teams in the league. 

You might think this looks like a surefire home win, but before you go ahead and place your bet, read our sports betting tip for the game to find out what our experts think.

After a strong start to the season, Arsenal fans are dreaming of another title challenge. The Gunners are clicking at both ends of the pitch and their star players, such as William Saliba and Declan Rice, are in excellent form.

One minor concern for Mikel Arteta will be the form of new goalkeeper David Reya. Since controversially taking over from Aaron Ramsdale between the posts, Reya has looked short of confidence and made a few basic errors. If the Gunners are to stay in contention for the title, they will need Reya to find his best form.

It’s been an awful start to the season for Sheffield United. They have picked up just one point from their first nine games, a run that includes a humiliating 0-8 home defeat against Newcastle. A record of 24 goals conceded in 9 games clearly shows that defence is a huge area of concern for Paul Heckingbottom’s men.

Head to Head

Arsenal are unbeaten in their last four games against Sheffield United and lead the overall head to head by 51 wins to 40. United have never won at the Emirates and their last away success versus Arsenal was back in 1971.

Unsurprisingly, Arsenal are huge favourites to claim all three points. They are currently priced at just 1/7 for the victory. Sheffield United can be backed at 22/1 to spring a surprise, with the draw available at 19/2.

Upon seeing those huge odds for a Blades win, there can be a temptation to back a big upset. However, our betting bonus tip for the game is for a straightforward home win. Arsenal are just vastly superior all over the pitch, and this could end up being a very one sided game.

Of course, backing a team at 1/7 does not represent a great value bet. Instead, we are recommending that you add the Gunners to your weekend acca and read the rest of our tips for more expert predictions.
