Reading are looking for a win over Arsenal which will take them off the bottom of the Premier League table. Here are some betting tips for the Premier League clash.
Reading have actually only lost the same number of games at home this season as Tottenham up in fourth place. Their problem has been only winning one match. They score well at home with 12 goals scored and could force a result if they show a little more defensive discipline. Reading are a best price of 9/2 to win with Betfred.
A win for Arsenal would move them back up into the pack of teams chasing fourth place. They won the dramatic recent League Cup encounter against Reading at the Madejski Stadium but will be hoping for a solid win after normal time. Arsenal are the odds on favourites for this match at 8/11 with Blue Square.
Reading would probably take a draw from this match considering the calibre of the opposition but Arsenal will be going all out for the win as they have been inconsistent throughout December. The draw has odds of 3/1 with Bet365.
Reading Betting Tips
Adam Le Fondre has worked his way up to the Premier League having learnt most of his football in the lower decisions. The striker should be up for this game and he looks a very good bet to score any time during the game at 3/1 odds with Blue Square. Le Fondre is small, quick and works hard for the team which will give Arsenal a few headaches.
Reading will be determined to start the match hard and fast with best odds of 9/2 from Bet365 on the home side winning the first half. They have the home support which will urge them on in an aggressive manner and if they catch Arsenal on the back foot early in the game then this could be one of the best bets of the game.
Reading will take any sort of win because it would ease the pressure on the club greatly. Blue Square are offering a very tempting 13/2 that Reading will win this match by a single goal which is very possible considering their defensive fragility.
Arsenal Betting Tips
Lukas Podolski has been a great buy for Arsenal and he seems willing to sweat blood for the side every time he plays. He will play in a slightly left sided attacking position but his odds of 5/1 with Betfred to score before any other player look good. He will want to cement his place in the side over the Christmas period.
Arsenal will set their stall out to be very difficult for Reading to break down. If you’re looking for an odds on insurance type bet to invest some cash in then you can get 1/7 from Blue Square on Arsenal being the only side to score in this game which is likely considering Arsenal would have been working very hard on the defensive side of the game lately.
