Athletic Bilbao vs Arsenal tips
Our Bet Builder selections: Arsenal Win, Eberechi Eze to Score and Noni Madueke to Assist at 9/1 with Betfred.
Here’s why we’ve made those selections..
Arsenal win: The Gunners should kick off their Champions League campaign with maximum points. Mikel Arteta’s side have made a strong start to the domestic season, winning three of their opening four Premier League games, scoring nine goals, and conceding just one. Arsenal have also been rock-solid in Europe under Arteta, conceding just 18 goals in 24 Champions League matches – a record that bodes well against a Bilbao side that failed to score at home in their last outing against Alaves.
Eberechi Eze to Score: Eze has made an immediate impact since his move to Arsenal, firing eight shots in just 185 minutes of competitive action – averaging an effort every 23.1 minutes, the highest rate in the squad. He also boasts a strong cup pedigree in recent years – netting six goals in his last nine FA Cup and Carabao Cup appearances.
Noni Madueke to Assist: Madueke is proving to be a creative spark. In just 261 minutes, he’s already created eight chances – double that of any other Arsenal player. The winger leads the team for touches and passes received in the final third, and boasts the highest expected assists (xA) in the squad.
