Arsenal FC v LOSC Lille Prediction
Best Bet: Arsenal to win and both teams to score @ 15/8
Arsenal have enjoyed a fantastic start to the season, winning eight of their nine matches, and they will feel confident of adding another three points to their European tally at the expense of Lille.
The Premier League champions came from behind to beat Leeds 2-1 at the Arsenal Stadium on Saturday, making it seven home wins in a row for Mikel Arteta's side.
It was a good response for Arsenal, who had lost 3-0 to Brighton prior to the international break, but they will face a stern test of their credentials when hosting Lille.
Lille have won two of their last three matches, beating Troyes and Le Havre, while they have won six of their last seven away assignments.
A trip to north London represents a big step up in class for Lille and coming away with a positive result looks unlikely, but they can still contribute to an entertaining encounter.
Lille have scored in their last seven away matches and they can breach an Arsenal side who have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last three outings.
Alternative Bet: Bruno Guimaraes anytime goalscorer @ 7/2
Arsenal midfielder Bruno Guimaraes has had to settle for a place on the bench more often than not since his summer arrival from Newcastle United, but his recent performances are putting him in line for a start.
The Brazil international came off the bench to score the winner in Saturday's win over Leeds United, taking his tally to two goals in his last four appearances for his club.
Guimaraes also netted during the international break and he looks capable of finding the back of the net again.
