Arsenal v Sunderland Odds Provides No Value For Gunners Punters

Get the latest odds and betting preview for the Arsenal v Sunderland match taking place on Saturday 5th March 2011.

Without a Premier League win since November 21st Sunderland must travel to the Emirates this weekend to take on Arsenal hoping above hope that their luck will change soon. Steve Bruce and his boys had a bright start to the season, but things have slipped badly at the Stadium of Light since November and Sunderland now sit staring over their shoulders at the Premier League drop zone.

On the more positive side for the ‘Black Cats’ is the fact that the team that they beat on Nov 21st was Arsenal, but can they repeat that feat this weekend. Certainly the Bookmakers do not think so, Boylesports for instance has their odds set at a massive 16/1 to win the match, odds that surely will be snapped up by optimistic punters and Sunderland fans alike, but also odds that suggest that Sunderland have no chance in this match. The same Bookmakers offer a draw at 19/4 but they, like most of the others offer no value for an Arsenal win with odds of 1/5.

While Sunderland keep a watchful eye on the relegation zone, Arsene Wenger, the Arsenal boss, still harbours the belief that his side can win the Premier League, but he will soon lose that optimism should his side go down in this match.

Of course Arsenal come into this match on the back of a midweek, Champions League defeat away at Porto, where they conceded two goals of major comical proportions, both of which can be blamed on keeper, Fabianski. His performance alone between the sticks in that match would inspire most teams to believe that they can at least score against Arsenal, particularly if they have a half reasonable striker. We think therefore that a small wager on Darren Bent to score during the match is a worthwhile bet, particularly with odds of 7/2 with Boylesports.

At the end of the day we have to advise that we think the Gunners will win this match, probably by a couple of goals or more. The Correct Score is always difficult to predict, but we do not think punters will go far wrong with a wager on a 3-1 win for Arsenal which carries odds of 10/1. Other Correct Score betting odds can be found below.
