Considering that each of the 20 teams played one game last week, it was a rather typical week. The outcomes, nevertheless, were wildly atypical. Brighton failed to score despite averaging 2.3 goals per game over their previous 11 games, Manchester City drew with lowly Nottingham Forest, Bournemouth kept their first away clean sheet of the season, and Chelsea lost at home to bottom-of-the-league Southampton. Due to the EFL Cup final, four teams are without a game this week, while four other teams have two additional midweek games.

Premier League Matchday 25 Preview & Best Bets: Leicester vs. Arsenal

Leicester vs. Arsenal
As they try to stave off Manchester City, Arsenal is at the heart of a competitive title chase, and every match is practically a must-win for them. On Saturday, the Gunners will undoubtedly go for all three points and be very aggressive if the score is knotted late, which is obviously good for their moneyline chances.
With a 9-1-2 record away from home this season, Arsenal leads the league in away wins, seven points better than second-best Manchester City. The Gunners have been outstanding throughout the season, especially on the road, and they are facing a substandard Leicester squad that is now in 14th place with a dismal 3-3-5 home record.
The Foxes come into this week ranked 14th on the table with just 24 points, only four points ahead of the first relegation spot.
The Gunners will aggressively pursue the full three points to increase their chances of winning the title ahead of Manchester City in their quest to establish themselves as the top team in the EPL. For me, -145 is a discount price to pay for a superior team in every sense.
Pick: Arsenal (-145)
