Arsenal vs Everton Match Preview
Two teams with similar problems meet this weekend as Arsenal welcome Everton in the Premier League. The hosts are looking to bounce back after a shocking loss against Swansea while Everton are looking to build on their win over Leicester City. This Arsenal vs Everton fixture will be played at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday, February 3, so check out our Arsenal vs Everton prediction and betting tips.
Arsenal
Arsenal have had a roller coaster January both on and off the pitch. While the 3-1 loss at Swansea this midweek highlighted their problems, the merry go-around of signings kept them busy in the transfer market. The anticipated debut of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is raising hopes among the Gunner fans who are increasingly hopeful of a turnaround in their fortunes. However, they are currently sixth in the table after 25 games (42 pts, W12, D6. L7) and are eight points away from Chelsea in the fourth position. That should be the priority for Arsene Wenger’s side right now. Henrikh Mkhitaryan played only 30 minutes on his debut, but Arsene Wenger has confirmed that he will in the starting line-up against Everton. After dropping all three points against Swansea, the hosts can ill-afford another loss of points in this Arsenal vs Everton fixture.
Everton
Is that going to be that simple? Sam Allardyce has allayed fears of a regulation dogfight for the Toffees since taking charge. In fact, he has taken the side into the top-half and Everton currently are ninth after 25 games (31 pts, W8, D7, L10). However, the recent run of fixtures has reduced anticipation of moving further up. The visitors have won just one match in their last eight fixtures (W1, D3, L4) in all competitions. That came against Leicester in the last round and should be a welcome change from their worries. With new signing Theo Walcott bagging a brace in that game, there is hope within the Toffees’ camp that the former Arsenal player will hurt them in this Arsenal vs Everton fixture.

Arsenal vs Everton Prediction
The problem with Arsenal has been their inconsistency. They are brilliant in one game and absolutely pathetic in the very next. However, they have been excellent at home losing only to Manchester United in the Premier League, that too in a game that they dominated! We see an Arsenal win, but not without goals from either side. Expect both sides to score a goal and Arsenal coming out with a win.
