Nottingham Forest vs Arsenal Sky Bet Preview: Huge favourites Gunners target crucial win to protect lead at the summit

Arsenal will aim for a crucial away win today – as Mikel Arteta’s side look to protect their six-point lead at the top of the Premier League table.

And that’s exactly what they should be doing when looking at the betting lines, with the Gunners the strong odds-on favorites to pick up their 16th win of the season.

Conversely, their opponents Nottingham Forest are significant underdogs at 5/1 to upset the applecart at the City Ground, while a draw is priced at 3/1.

It was Arsenal who came out on top in the reverse fixture earlier this season – with that match ending 3-0 in favor of the north London club.

Elsewhere, in addition to the head-to-head odds outlined above, four price increases are on offer with Sky Bet for this crucial competition.

The first two boosts require Viktor Gyokeres to score or assist, and Bukayo Saka to have more than 2 shots on target.

The odds on these two bets have been increased to 10/11 and 2/1 respectively according to Sky Bet.

Gyokeres scored and recorded an assist in Arsenal’s 3-2 win over Chelsea in the first leg of the Carabao Cup semi-final.

Meanwhile, the other two boosts allow Elliot Anderson to have 6+ fouls at 5/1, and each team to have 6+ shots on target at 14/1.

Anderson has committed the most fouls in the Premier League this season with 80.
