Premier League Matchday 8 Odds, Picks & Predictions

Brentford (+270) vs. Arsenal (-125)

One of the surprises of this young EPL season thus far has been the play of Brentford, who, through five games, has lost just once, sitting #8 on the table with nine points and a goal differential of +6. Picking up a win last week against Leeds United, the road gets considerably tougher in this matchup as they welcome Arsenal to town.

Through six EPL games, the Gunners sit atop the table with 15 points (5-0-1), relying on a stingy defense as they come into this game with a goal differential of +7. In the striker’s department, it’s been The Gabriel show to this point, as Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Jesus have combined for six of the team’s 14 goals

While they continue to get the attention, I like fellow striker Bukayo Saka to be the difference in this matchup and find the back of the net much as he did in their recent Champions League match vs. Manchester United.

Pick: Arsenal (-125)
