On April 4, Crystal Palace will face off against Arsenal in a game that’s sure to be entertaining. Crystal Palace is coming off of a huge 4-0 victory against Everton and has gone 3-0-1 over their last four.
However, beating Arsenal won’t be an easy task, and Crystal Palace comes into the game as underdogs. So, what steps will Crystal Palace need to take to ensure another victory?
Arsenal is one of the best teams in the English Premier League, currently ranked 5th overall. They have a record of 17-3-8 and have gone 3-1 in their last four matches.
Their most recent match was a 1-0 win over Aston Villa. Crystal Palace could prove to be a tough match for Arsenal tonight. With that being said, which of these teams (if any) will be the best bet tonight? This is one of our first Same Game Parlays for soccer.
Game Preview: Crystal Palace versus Arsenal
Ranked 12th in the English Premier League (EPL), Crystal Palace is currently 7-13-9. Although they don’t have a great record, they’ve performed well in recent games. Marc Guehi and Jean-Philippe Mateta scored first-half goals in the win over Everton.
As they prepare to face Arsenal, they’ll need these players to have a similar game. Arsenal is not an easy team to beat.
Arsenal follows closely behind Tottenham in terms of EPL rankings. In order to move up, they’ll need to land a few key wins. One way they can do this is by taking down Crystal Palace, which has had a tough season so far.
However, Arsenal hasn’t been exactly dominant either, having eight matches lost over 28 matches. So, how can you build a solid EPL same-game parlay?
Moneyline: Crystal Palace +340
This might be a shocking bet, but once you look at how each team has performed, it isn’t. Crystal Palace easily walked over Everton, but perhaps more impressive is their 2-0 win over Wolverhampton.
Their most recent game against Arsenal was in October of 2021, and they tied 2-2. We think Crystal Palace actually finds a way to take down Arsenal in the match today.
Correct Score: 2-1 +1400
Now, this one is slightly harder and requires a bit of analytics to figure out. The largest margin of victory in the last five meetings between these two is just two goals. Because of this and the most recent game, we think the score will end 2-1.
Arsenal just lost 3-2 to Watford, a team that Crystal Palace beat 4-1. Taking these games into account, we’re going with a score of 2-1.
Over/Under 2.5 Goals: Over +116
This pick will continue to build the odds up to maximize your winnings. Each of these teams is able to, on their own, score over 2.5 goals. This game will easily land at about the three-goal mark, but we don’t think it will go further.
One thing Crystal Palace and Arsenal are good at are limiting goals against them. Look for the score to land right at three goals in tonight’s match.
Both Teams To Score: Yes -108
This is probably one of the most secure bets you can place on the match between these two. Each team has great scorers and is bound to at least be a 1-1 tie.
However, adding this to your ticket will boost your winnings and is essentially a sure thing.
