Arsenal vs Sevilla tips and predictions: Gunners to sink struggling Spaniards
- Robbie Savage
- 7 November 2023
Planet Sport Bet ambassador Robbie Savage thinks Arsenal will make light work of Sevilla with an efficient performance in the Champions League.
That was a great win for Arsenal in Seville 2-1.
Sevilla are 15th in La Liga and not having the best season, while Arsenal are unbeaten in 10 home games in all competitions at the Emirates.
I think they'll win this one and will bounce back from the defeat at Newcastle.
I'm going for a 2-0 win to the Gunners
Robbie’s Tip: Arsenal 2-0 Sevilla
Arsenal vs Sevilla team news
Arsenal will be without Jurrien Timber, Thomas Parter, Gabriel Jesus and Emile Smith Rowe for the visit of Sevilla.
Martin Odegaard is a doubt and may not be risked, meaning Fabio Viera could partner Jorginho and a more advanced Declan Rice in midfield.
The visitors are without Marcao and potentially veteran Sergio Ramos.
Key stats
- Sevilla are unbeaten in four away games.
- Arsenal unbeaten in seven home games.
- Arsenal have kept just two clean sheets in last six in all competitions.
- Arsenal have beaten Sevilla twice in the last three encounters.
Planet Sport’s other bets to consider
Sevilla might be the masters of the Europa League, but they’ve won just two of their last 17 Champions League fixtures.
Man City did the double over them last season, winning 4-0 and 3-1, and the Gunners look very well placed to do the same, so consider the -1.5 Asian handicap.
Sevilla are stuttering through another tough start to a domestic campaign and the absence of central defenders Marcao and Ramos is not helping.
The Spaniards have already shipped 10 goals across six La Liga and Champions League games. Lens, PSV and Arsenal have all breached them at least once.
A worrying trend for the visitors is they’ve already shipped eight goals inside the opening 25 minutes of matches. You can back the first goal to be scored in under 30 minutes.
La Liga leaders Girona (49) are the only team to have accumulated more yellow cards than Sevilla (38) this season, so you could also back the visitors to pick up the most yellow cards.
