| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Arsenal to win to nil | 5/4 (BoyleSports) | Arsenal had won their first four league games, conceding just once in that run, before a 3-0 defeat at Brighton last time out. Mikel Arteta’s side have kept three clean sheets in five matches, beating Coventry 3-0, Aston Villa 1-0 and Sunderland 2-0. Leeds are unbeaten and sit fifth, but they have scored just seven times, with four of those coming in one game against Newcastle. The Gunners also kept clean sheets in 4-0 and 5-0 wins over Leeds last season. Leeds have kept the scoring low on their travels, and 5/4 is a fair return for another Arsenal shutout. |
| Draw half-time / Arsenal full-time | 3/1 (BoyleSports) | Squawka’s research shows that over the last three seasons, half of Premier League games in the post-break gameweek (GW6) were 0-0 at half-time (15 of 30), double the usual rate, with first-half goals dropping to 0.67 a game. Arsenal have been level at the interval in three of their five league games, against Aston Villa, Chelsea and Sunderland, and won all three. Leeds have conceded just one first-half goal all season, and two of their games were goalless at the break. A patient first half followed by an Arsenal win is the shape we expect, and that pays 3/1. |

Leeds have been hard to crack before the interval, conceding just once in the first half all season, and the first weekend back after an international break has tended to start slowly.
