Arsenal vs. Hull City Prediction, Pick
This bet can be found under the “Match Parlays” tab. Arsenal won the league last season through defense, and they are looking to do the same in the new campaign. The Gunners are three points ahead of the chasing pack after nine games, and are looking to keep their momentum going against a newly promoted team in Hull City.
The Tigers have started well, currently sitting in 11th place heading into this week. They’ve only won twice, but five draws along with two losses gets them on the cusp of the top half of the league table.
This, however, will be their toughest test yet. The Gunners have won all of their home games in the Premier League and eight out of nine in total. They’ve only conceded five goals, and three of those came against Brighton in their lone loss. Six out of Arsenal’s eight league wins have come alongside a clean sheet, and I think that’s a great bet to happen again in this game.
Including the Community Shield, the Gunners have played in 16 total games this season in all competitions. They’ve won 13 of those and only lost once inside a 90 minute game. They’ve kept nine total clean sheets and conceded 11 times.
This team is built for another deep run in both the Premier League and Champions League, and games like this should be comfortable wins for a team that are the defending champions going up against a team at home that have only played in nine Premier League games in recent memory. Give me the Gunners to get a convincing win while keeping the door shut at the other end.
