Arsenal to claim shutout success against toothless Toffees
Odds on selections are seldom tolerated on these pages but an exception is readily made in the case of the 17/20 available about Arsenal beating Everton without concession.
The Gunners have kept clean sheets in five of their last seven Emirates outings in all competitions, including each of their last three against Nottingham Forest, Manchester United and Monaco.
Everton ended a run of four Premier League games without a goal by battering Wolves 4-0 at Goodison Park in their last outing, but Wolves have the division’s worst defensive record, whereas Arsenal have its second best.
Tip: Arsenal to beat Everton to nil @ 17/20
Astounding value in most obvious League One win to nil all season
The 6/4 about Wrexham to claim three points without conceding against Cambridge has pretty much everything you’d want in a win-to-nil wager, yet it can be backed at a generous 6/4.
Phil Parkison’s men have the best home record in the third tier (P10, W9, D1) and the division’s best defensive record (11 goals conceded in 19 games). They’ve won their last five matches to-nil and haven’t conceded a goal at the STōK Cae Ras in their last 693 minutes of football.
Opponents Cambridge have the worst away record in League One (P9, W1, D1, L7) and they’ve scored just five times on the road in the league all season.
Tip: Wrexham to beat Cambridge Utd to nil @ 6/4
Unders on the agenda in duel of League Two entertainment phobes
Prenton Park hosts a top of the table clash when Harrogate Town visit Tranmere this Saturday but, unfortunately for fans of rippling nets, the table in question is the League Two failed-to-score standings.
Tranmere have blanked in 10 of their 18 league games this term, while Harrogate aren’t far behind on nine bagels in 19 matches. Under 1.5 goals has to be a serious contender at 21/10 in the circumstances.
It might be expected that their porous rearguards could undermine our wager given the sides sit 21st and 19th in the fourth tier, but Nigel Adkins’ hosts have conceded just nine times in their nine home games, while Town have shipped a modest 12 across their nine away assignments.
