Bet 1: Arsenal to Win and Both Teams to Score

Arsenal’s encounter with Brentford at the Emirates provides the ideal setting for a multi-faceted Bet Builder selection. While Mikel Arteta may look to rotate his starting eleven with European competition looming, the strength in depth at Arsenal remains evident. Fringe players such as Leandro Trossard, Mikel Merino, and Raheem Sterling offer ample attacking threat, particularly in home matches where Arsenal tend to dominate possession regardless of personnel. Merino especially has emerged as a key figure, finding the net in three straight appearances in North London. Even if regular starters like Declan Rice or Bukayo Saka are given the night off, the squad’s balance remains intact.

That said, clean sheets have eluded Arsenal in similar scenarios—especially when Arteta rotates defensively following European fixtures. Brentford have proven to be competitive away from home in 2025, having secured results in venues tougher than the Emirates. Bryan Mbeumo, who scored in the reverse fixture, remains a persistent menace, capable of exploiting any lapses in Arsenal’s concentration at the back. With Brentford pushing forward and Arsenal retaining their sharpness in attack, backing a home win while still expecting both teams to score offers strong logic and fair value.

Bet 2: Mikel Merino to Score Anytime

One of the standout performers in recent weeks has been Mikel Merino, who has stepped up impressively following Arsenal’s decision not to bolster their front line in the winter transfer window. Deployed further forward under Arteta’s guidance, Merino has thrived, particularly at home. He’s managed to score in each of his last three appearances at the Emirates, including match-defining goals against Fulham, Chelsea, and Real Madrid. These weren’t tap-ins either—his movement and finishing have shown a forward’s instinct.

Against a Brentford side who are unlikely to park the bus, Merino should have space to exploit, especially if Arsenal play with a fluid front three. With the likes of Sterling and Trossard likely creating chances around him, Merino’s late runs into the box could again pay dividends. Considering his current momentum and the expectation that he’ll lead the line in this clash, backing him to score again feels entirely justified.

Bet 3: Declan Rice Over 3 Shots

Although Declan Rice might not be the first name that comes to mind when considering attacking output, his recent performances suggest otherwise. He has not been shy about having a go from distance, with his recent shot count supporting this angle. Rice had five efforts against Real Madrid, three against Chelsea, and another two against Everton—all from a more advanced midfield role. His confidence appears to be growing by the match.

Even if Arteta chooses to start without him, Rice is a game-changer who can be introduced if Arsenal aren’t in full control. Given his form and tendency to strike from outside the area, a wager on him registering four or more shots offers both value and realism. He may not hit the target with all of them, but the volume alone makes this a sensible inclusion.
