Football Multi Bet: $6.93 Tip for Wednesday

Two teams chasing their first-ever Champions League glory meet in the first leg of a delicious UEFA Champions League semi-final tie at the Emirates Stadium on Wednesday morning. As Arsenal prepares to welcome Paris Saint-Germain in the English capital, we take a look at the best betting sites to find the top bets for this clash. 

Wednesday April 30, 7am NZT, Emirates Stadium

Arsenal to Win 

Arsenal outsmarted, outmuscled and outplayed Real Madrid in the quarter-finals to set up a two-legged clash with the French champions, who had dashed Aston Villa’s hopes of European glory in the previous round. 

Villa have been outstanding under Unai Emery, but there can be no questioning that Mikel Arteta’s men had the sterner test on their road to this stage

Many football betting experts are favouring Arsenal to win in London since they already beat PSG in the group stages this season. Also, they have been unbeaten against the French powerhouse in the previous five meetings. 

So, we fancy the Gunners taking the lead by the end of the first 90 minutes. 

Over 2.5 Goals 

Arsenal have been strong going forward in recent weeks, finding the net in each of their last 11 games. Over their previous five outings, they’ve been particularly impressive, scoring 12 goals at an average of 2.4 per match. 

Their firepower has seen four of those five matches go over 2.5 goals. In the Champions League, the Gunners have kept that momentum going, with all of their last four games producing over 2.5 goals.

PSG have been excellent in attack all season and are more than capable of finding the net against any opponent. However, their defence has been less convincing, with no clean sheet in their last five matches — and that was against opposition far weaker than Arsenal. In that same five-game span, four of their matches featured over 2.5 goals. 

Odds of $1.91 at 20Bet feel like an excellent second leg for our football multi as a result.

Both Teams To Score

With growing vulnerabilities in defence, signs of fatigue are starting to creep in for PSG, who will also head into the first leg with fewer days’ rest than their North London opponents. Luis Enrique’s side can still be expected to score, especially now that Partey won’t be there to shield the host’s midfield.

Betting apps are offering short odds for both teams to score. Arsenal are still a fantastic defensive unit without Partey, but William Saliba, their star center-back, has made two costly mistakes in defence lately. Without the protection of Partey, Arsenal could have trouble containing the PSG frontline.
