Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

Maybe it'd be too strong to say that we expect Régis Le Bris and Mikel Arteta to batten down the hatches here, but we certainly don't expect to see a glut of goals as Sunderland and Arsenal go head-to-head. The stats belowimply under 2.5 goals (i.e. 2 goals of fewer in total), and we reckon that looks like a strong prediction. With best odds of 1.91 available on under 2.5 goals and nothing too eyecatching in the full time result market, that's the bet we're recommending.
