Bukayo Saka - Over 1.5 Shots on Target +115
Saka is a true star player for Arsenal and sitting at just 22 years old, he has a ton of potential in front of him. In his two starts this season, Saka has recorded one goal and 2 assists, netting his first goal in week 1 against Wolves. He also has averaged 2 shots on goal in each of his first two games, making this bet at plus odds pretty juicy.
Arsenal is expected to beat Brighton and with Brighton’s high-paced offense, there will be pressure on Arsenal to control possession and score goals.
Kai Havertz to Score or Assist -115
Another young star for Arsenal, Havertz has gotten off to a good start for the Gunners. In the first 2 games, Havertz has 1 goal and 1 assist. In his 6 career appearances against Brighton, he has amassed 3 goals and an assist.
As I stated before, I think Arsenal will put up some goals due to the pressure from Brighton, which will lead the way for these two young stars to put on a show.
Morgan Rogers (-130) and Leon Bailey (-165) to have 1+ shot on target (+184 parlay)
Whether you take this as a parlay or all together, you have a good shot of hitting. Both of these players are leaders of Aston Villa’s offense. Villa vs. Leicester is a historically high-scoring matchup with both teams scoring goals in 4 of the last 5 matchups.
Leon Bailey has recorded 19 shots on target in his last 25 games. Morgan Rogers is another offensive power for Villa. He has recorded six shots on target in seven full 90-minute appearances in the Premier League. I expect Villa to win or at least draw this match, so look for these two to lead the way.
Cole Palmer to Score or Assist -155
Chelsea is coming off of an amazing 6-2 victory last weekend over Wolves. Led by Cole Palmer who netted a goal and assisted on all 3 of Noni Madueke’s goals in the 2nd half. Once again the favorite to win, Chelsea should be in good shape to put up some points against Crystal Palace.
Palmer, last season's Young Player of the Year, is showing he can be a dominant force in the league and is ready to show that off in front of the home crowd at Stamford Bridge.
Dominik Szoboszlai to have 1+ shot on target (-105)
In his 2 appearances this season for Liverpool, Szoboszlai has recorded 4 shots already. The 23-year-old is a crucial part of Liverpool’s attack and with Liverpool looking to get a much-needed win against Man U, you can expect them to push the pace. Szoboszlai recorded 3 shots and 2 on target against Man U in the FA Cup quarterfinal matchup.
Expect a fun game between these two rival squads with plenty of back and forth.
