Arsenal To Stop The Rot
The Gunners are on a dire run but they are still 30 points better than their hosts for a reason.
Arsenal have shown themselves hugely vulnerable away from home lately but things would have to hit a new low for them to lose at Middlesbrough.
The Teessiders are winless in 14 Premier League fixtures anywhere dating back till before Christmas. In a battle of two sides bereft of confidence, player quality should still make the difference. Just. Arsenal are good value to claim a vital 1-0 victory at best odds of 7/1 with Bet365.
As we all know Boro can’t score goals; 22 in 31 top flight outings is abysmal. But they still rank 6th defensively so no team should expect to run riot against them.
Man Utd, Chelsea and Spurs (twice) all only beat Boro by a single goal margin and Arsene Wenger would certainly take that on Monday night.
