Bournemouth vs Arsenal Ultimate Bet Builder
Kai Havertz to score anytime
Kai Havertz missed the international break due to injury, but Arsenal have had a couple of weeks to get the striker back fit for this trip to Bournemouth. He’s expected to feature as he seeks to extend a brilliant run of form.
Havertz has scored in each of his last four appearances for Arsenal, while he’s notched four league goals for the Gunners this term. The German scored in this fixture last season and following his fine run, back him to extend his scoring streak.
Bukayo Saka to make an assist
Saka was another injury concern for Arsenal over the international break, but both Lee Carsley and Mikel Arteta have said his early departure from the England camp was a precaution. Both managers said he would have been fit for the Finland game, which points to him featuring on Saturday.
The Gunners need his creativity on the wing, as Saka has supplied assists for seven of Arsenal’s 15 goals this term. He’s set up a goal in six of his seven Premier League appearances, including two in the win over Southampton last time out.
Saka is worth doubling up with Havertz, as he’s assisted three of the German’s four league goals this term.
Lewis Cook to make over 1.5 fouls
Bournemouth are going to have to endure spells without the ball in this clash and that’s going to be tough on Cook, who leads the side in fouls. He’s made 18 so far this season, while he’s been booked on three occasions.
The central midfielder can be exposed by Bournemouth’s style of play and up against a talented Arsenal side he’s likely to be forced into more fouls. Back him to make at least two for the sixth time in eight league games.
Riccardo Calafiori to make over 1.5 fouls
Calafiori is expected to get the nod at left-back and he’s up against Bournemouth’s Antoine Semenyo. The forward has drawn nine fouls in the league this term and he should pose some problems for Calafiori.
The Italian has made multiple fouls in four of his last five matches for club and country. He’s made the third-most fouls for the Gunners this season, playing significantly fewer minutes than the two players above him. Take him to make a couple of fouls in this encounter.
