Arsenal vs. Nottingham Forest

This Saturday morning, we are getting a match in the Premier League, which is just kicking off and we are eager to see how the teams come into this new regular season.

For this match, we travel to the Emirates Stadium in London, England, where Nottingham Forest will face off against Arsenal, who was one pretty strong contender last season.

The Tricky Trees finished as the 16th-placed team last season, barely clearing off from the relegation zone, which means that they should be eager to get away from that position as much as possible.

The Gunners were the leaders in the premier league for the longest time in the last season, before Manchester City took over and managed to keep themselves as the top team when it mattered the most.

This should be quite an entertaining beginning to the Premier League season, and we expect fans to be ready to cheer and enjoy the first matches of this edition.

When: 

Saturday, August 12th at 5:30 am ET at Emirates Stadium

Moneyline odds: 

Nottingham Forest +1150

Arsenal -440

Why Bet on Arsenal?

Fresh from lifting another trophy aloft in the Wembley sunshine, Arsenal begin their latest bid for Premier League supremacy at home.

The Gunners ended their Manchester City hoodoo to win the Community Shield last weekend and are now out for a slice of revenge against the team who officially ended their title dreams last term.

Arsenal exceeded most fans’, pundits’, and journalists’ expectations during a phenomenal 2022-23 campaign, although it still only took a couple of injuries to key cogs for things to go pear-shaped, which the Emirates board has sought to rectify with a £200m+ summer spending spree.

Such an outlay should also see the Gunners shut up shop at home more often than they did last term, as their 5-0 demolition job of Wolverhampton Wanderers on the final day marked just their fourth Emirates clean sheet in the 2022-23 campaign, although one of the other three did come against their opening-day opponents.

Why Bet on Nottingham Forest?

A 5-0 drubbing of Forest in North London soon paled into insignificance when the Gunners traveled to the City Ground in May, as Steve Cooper’s side consigned Arsenal to a second-placed finish while deservedly retaining their Premier League status thanks to one of the most important goals that Taiwo Awoniyi will ever score in his career.

An immediate demotion back down to the Championship was unthinkable for a Forest side that added 25 new faces to their roster throughout the 2022-23 season – some to greater effect than others – and Cooper also brushed aside brief talk of termination before guiding the Tricky Trees to a second consecutive season of top-flight football.

Forest have since pitted their wits against several continental foes in the build-up to the new campaign, although only two of their seven pre-season fixtures ended with Cooper’s men on the correct end of the scoreline, and they failed to win or indeed score in each of their final four tune-up games.

Final Betting Analysis: Arsenal vs. Nottingham Forest

Clean sheets at the Emirates may not have been Arsenal’s forte last term, but with a couple of Forest’s attackers yet to hit full fitness, the Gunners should perfectly commence the new season.

Spirits will already be extremely high in Arteta’s camp following their Community Shield success, and the Trees North London homecoming will surely be a miserable one, while the hosts stroll to an opening-day win with a few goals in tow.

We are expecting a 3-0 score in Arsenal’s favor.

Go for a victory for the Premier League runners-up at -440. If your bet $100 at such odds, you could get $22.73 for a total payout of $122.73.
