Preview

There are many factors that have contributed towards Arsenal’s success this season but one of the most underrated has been the performance of Martin Odegaard.

The midfielder is an integral part of the Gunners’ fluid attacking play and his tally of 25 passes into the 18-yard box ranks sixth in the Premier League.

The Norwegian is also third in the division for expected assists and can play a major role in Arsenal’s match against Wolves.

Odegaard has scored four times in the league this season to go with his two assists and is fancied to either find the net or set up a teammate at 7-5.

Newcastle will be looking to continue their fine form against Chelsea and they could be aided by the return of Allan Saint-Maximin.

The Frenchman played against Crystal Palace on Wednesday as he works his way back from injury and Eddie Howe may look to target Cesar Azpilicueta with the pace and trickery of the 25-year-old.

One of Saint-Maximin’s staples is to cut inside from the left flank and shoot, and he is averaging 2.86 shots per 90 minutes this season.

As a result the 4-5 with bet365 about him to have two or more shots against Chelsea is of interest - he is as short as 1-3 with other firms.

Another player who has tried his luck plenty of times this season is Leicester’s Patson Daka.

The striker is averaging 1.72 shots on target per 90 minutes, the fourth-most in the Premier League, and seems to have established himself as Brendan Rodgers’ first choice ahead of Jamie Vardy.

The Foxes have improved markedly in recent weeks and they should be able to cause West Ham plenty of issues.

Given Daka’s tendency to take plenty of shots on goal, the 23-10 for him to register two or more shots on target is worth taking.
