Fola Badmus05 mins

Football betting expert Lewis Jones (Jones Knows) has delivered his latest round of Premier League predictions, tipping Sunderland to halt Arsenal’s 10-match winning streak this weekend. The weekend’s fixtures feature blockbuster encounters including Sunderland vs Arsenal, Chelsea vs Wolves, Aston Villa vs Bournemouth, Brentford vs Newcastle, Crystal Palace vs Brighton, and Manchester City vs Liverpool. Tottenham vs Manchester United (Saturday, 12:30 PM) Tottenham Hotspur’s home form continues to disappoint, with the club registering the fewest home points and most defeats among ever-present Premier League sides over the past year. Manchester United, meanwhile, remain unpredictable but entertaining. Jones tips goals rather than results here.Best Bet: Man Utd to score over 1.5 goals (10/11)Score Prediction: 2-2 Everton vs Fulham (Saturday, 3:00 PM) Jack Grealish continues to be the most fouled player in the league, creating value in card-based markets.Best Bet: Both Kenny Tete and Jack Grealish to be carded (12/1)Score Prediction: 1-1 West Ham vs Burnley (Saturday, 3:00 PM) Under Nuno Espirito Santo, West Ham’s counter-attacking style could bring Crysencio Summerville to prominence in attacking props markets.Best Bet: Summerville to score (3/1)Score Prediction: 2-1 (West Ham win) Sunderland vs Arsenal (Saturday, 5:30 PM) Arsenal’s stunning run of 10 wins and eight clean sheets in a row could finally come to an end, according to Jones. He argues that Sunderland’s defensive organisation and resilience from set pieces make them perfectly equipped to frustrate Mikel Arteta’s side.“This is the time to be brave and sail against the market,” Jones writes. “Sunderland are well-drilled, defensively sound, and have the tools to disrupt Arsenal’s rhythm.”Best Bets: Both Teams to Score (6/5), Sunderland to win (7/1), Sunderland to win to nil (12/1)Score Prediction: 2-1 (Sunderland win) Chelsea vs Wolves (Saturday, 8:00 PM) Referee Andrew Kitchen takes charge of only his fourth Premier League match, and Jones predicts a card-heavy clash.Best Bet: Over 4.5 cards (11/10)Score Prediction: 2-1 (Chelsea win) Aston Villa vs Bournemouth (Sunday, 2:00 PM) Fatigue from European commitments could make Aston Villa vulnerable to a fresh and organised Bournemouth side under Andoni Iraola.Best Bet: Bournemouth – Draw No Bet (11/8)Score Prediction: 2-1 (Bournemouth win) Brentford vs Newcastle (Sunday, 2:00 PM) Newcastle’s struggles away from home continue, with no league wins in eight away matches and just four goals scored in that run.Best Bet: Brentford – Draw No Bet (Evens)Score Prediction: 2-1 (Brentford win) Crystal Palace vs Brighton (Sunday, 2:00 PM) Danny Welbeck’s resurgence under Fabian Hürzeler continues, with six goal involvements in his last six games.Best Bet: Welbeck to score or assist (7/4)Score Prediction: 2-2 Nottingham Forest vs Leeds (Sunday, 2:00 PM) Sean Dyche’s influence at Forest is already visible, tightening up a previously leaky defence.Best Bet: Both Teams to Score – No (10/11)Score Prediction: 1-0 (Forest win) Manchester City vs Liverpool (Sunday, 4:30 PM) Jones cautions punters against short odds on Erling Haaland (3/1) to score first, noting his muted record against Virgil van Dijk — just two goals in seven meetings.Score Prediction: 2-2

Arsenal’s Max Dowman Breaks Record As Youngest Player In Champions League History At 15

Wale busari01 mins

Arsenal’s rising star Max Dowman etched his name into football history on Tuesday night, becoming the youngest player ever to appear in the UEFA Champions League. At just 15 years and 309 days old, the teenage midfielder came on as a 73rd-minute substitute in Arsenal’s 3–0 win over Slavia Prague, marking a record-breaking moment for both himself and the club. Dowman shattered the previous record set by German striker Youssoufa Moukoko, who made his debut for Borussia Dortmund in 2020 at 16 years and 18 days. Moukoko, now with FC Copenhagen, was preparing to face Tottenham Hotspur later that evening. The achievement caps off a whirlwind week for Dowman, who had already become Arsenal’s youngest-ever starter in their 2–0 League Cup victory over Brighton — proof of manager Mikel Arteta’s growing faith in the teenager’s extraordinary potential.

Arsenal Thrash Slavia Prague 3–0 To Maintain Perfect Champions League Record

Wale busari02 mins

Arsenal continued their perfect run in the UEFA Champions League with a 3–0 victory over Slavia Prague on Tuesday night, securing their fourth straight win and matching a 121-year-old club record of eight consecutive clean sheets. Bukayo Saka opened the scoring from the penalty spot after a handball in the box, calmly sending the goalkeeper the wrong way. The goal marked his fourth straight Champions League game on the scoresheet, bringing his total to 12 goals in 20 starts in the competition. After the break, Mikel Merino took charge, volleying in Leandro Trossard’s cross to double Arsenal’s lead before heading home a third midway through the second half after a mix-up from Slavia’s goalkeeper, Jakub Markovic. With the result sealed, manager Mikel Arteta brought on several youngsters, including 15-year-old Max Dowman, who made history as the youngest player ever to appear in the Champions League at 15 years and 308 days old. Arsenal’s defence remained solid, surviving a late VAR review to keep another clean sheet — their eighth in a row, equalling a record that has stood since 1903. The Gunners now shift focus to domestic duty as they visit Sunderland on Saturday before facing Bayern Munich after the international break.

Gyokeres And Rice Seal Arsenal’s 2-0 Victory Over Burnley To Extend Premier League Lead

Wale busari02 mins

Arsenal extended their Premier League lead with a convincing 2-0 victory over Burnley at Turf Moor on Saturday, thanks to first-half goals from Viktor Gyokeres and Declan Rice. Mikel Arteta’s side took control early on when Gyokeres rose highest to head home his fourth league goal of the season from a superbly executed set piece, giving the Gunners a deserved lead. Declan Rice, heavily involved in the opener, doubled Arsenal’s advantage 10 minutes before halftime. The England midfielder finished off a swift counterattack with a powerful header that left the Burnley goalkeeper with no chance. The second half saw fewer chances as Arsenal managed the game with composure, limiting Burnley’s attacking opportunities. The hosts came close late on, striking the woodwork in stoppage time, but never truly threatened to turn the tide. The result marked Arsenal’s fifth consecutive league win, keeping them seven points clear at the top of the table. Burnley, meanwhile, remain in 17th place, just four points above the relegation zone.

Eze Fires Arsenal To 1–0 Victory Over Crystal Palace As Gunners Go Four Points Clear

Wale busari03 mins

Arsenal edged Crystal Palace 1–0 at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday, October 26, 2025, in a hard-fought Premier League encounter that tested their patience and composure. The decisive moment came in the 39th minute when Eberechi Eze, facing his former club, struck a composed volley into the bottom-right corner after a well-delivered free-kick routine. Declan Rice’s curling cross was nodded down by Gabriel Magalhães, allowing Eze to pounce and give Arsenal the breakthrough they had been pushing for all half. Before the goal, Arsenal had dominated possession but struggled to find a cutting edge against Palace’s deep defensive setup. The Emirates crowd erupted when Eze’s finish found the net, giving the hosts the momentum heading into halftime. The second half saw Crystal Palace attempt to claw their way back into the game, but Arsenal’s backline — marshaled by William Saliba and Gabriel — stood firm. Palace’s best chance came from a swift counterattack, but goalkeeper David Raya reacted sharply to keep his clean sheet intact. Bukayo Saka nearly doubled Arsenal’s lead late on, only for Marc Guehi to clear his effort off the line in one of the game’s most dramatic moments. Despite pressing for a second goal, Arsenal had to settle for the lone strike that proved enough to seal the win. The victory extended Arsenal’s unbeaten run in the Premier League to six matches and ten in all competitions, moving them four points clear at the top of the table. For Eze, the night carried special significance as he scored against the club where he made his name. His goal — his first in Arsenal colors — underscored the growing influence he’s beginning to have under Mikel Arteta. While the Gunners’ attacking fluency still lacked its usual sharpness, their defensive solidity and control once again showed why they’re serious title contenders this season.

Arsenal Crush Atletico Madrid 4–0 as Arteta’s Side Dominate Champions League Clash

Kamal Yalwa05 mins

Arsenal produced another dominant European performance as they thrashed Atletico Madrid 4–0 at the Emirates, sending a clear message to the rest of Europe — Mikel Arteta’s men are not just contenders; they look unstoppable. The Gunners have now kept four straight clean sheets, facing just one shot on target in their last three matches, while continuing their remarkable record from set-pieces — 10 goals already this season from dead-ball situations. Wednesday night’s victory was a masterclass in control, discipline, and ruthlessness. Declan Rice once again orchestrated proceedings in midfield, delivering two assists from set-pieces, while Viktor Gyökeres ended his nine-game goal drought with a confidence-boosting brace. When Arsenal dismantled Real Madrid 5–1 on aggregate last season, it was seen as their arrival among Europe’s elite. Six months later, Diego Simeone’s Atletico have suffered a similar fate. Atleti came prepared, compact, and disciplined — vintage Simeone football — but were eventually blown away by an Arsenal side operating at frightening efficiency. The Spanish giants, who scored five goals against Real Madrid earlier this season, managed just one shot on target all night. David Raya has made just one save across Arsenal’s last three fixtures, and the team has conceded only three goals in 12 games — their best-ever defensive start to a season. For all the legendary backlines under George Graham and Arsène Wenger, this defence may be reaching even greater heights. Arsenal’s set-piece record is becoming almost absurd. The Gunners scored twice from dead-ball situations again, making it the fourth match this season they’ve done so. Gabriel opened the scoring from a Rice free-kick, continuing a trend where Arsenal inevitably break opponents through well-drilled routines. Critics may argue Arsenal rely too heavily on set-pieces — but at this level of execution, it’s a weapon few teams can counter. As Sky Sports pundit Paul Merson put it: “No one beats Atletico by four. Arsenal steamrolled them.” It was also a night of redemption for Viktor Gyökeres. The Swedish striker, under pressure after a goalless spell, silenced doubters with two well-taken goals and another selfless, high-energy performance. “He makes us a better team,” Arteta said post-match. “His work rate and intelligence create so much space for our wingers. The goals were a reward for that effort.” With upcoming fixtures against Crystal Palace, Brighton, Burnley, Slavia Prague, and Sunderland, Gyökeres has a prime opportunity to build momentum — and Arsenal to extend their dominance. Top of the Premier League, joint-leaders in the Champions League, and statistically the best defence in Europe’s top five leagues — Arsenal’s rise under Arteta shows no signs of slowing down. If they continue combining tactical control with devastating set-pieces and newfound attacking depth, the question is no longer whether they can win major silverware — but who can stop them.

Wale busari02 mins

Arsenal secured a commanding 4-0 victory over Atlético Madrid in their UEFA Champions League group-stage clash at the Emirates Stadium on Tuesday, October 21, 2025. The first half ended goalless despite chances for both sides. Eberechi Eze’s effort for Arsenal hit the crossbar, while Atlético’s Julian Álvarez also struck the woodwork. Arsenal broke the deadlock in the 57th minute when Gabriel Magalhães scored off a Declan Rice free-kick. Gabriel Martinelli doubled the lead seven minutes later with a brilliant finish. Viktor Gyökeres then ended his nine-game goal drought, adding two more goals in the 67th and 70th minutes, sealing a comprehensive win for the Gunners. The victory extends Arsenal’s unbeaten streak to nine matches and moves them to nine points in the group stage, strengthening their position for knockout-stage qualification. Atlético Madrid, on the other hand, saw their six-game unbeaten run come to an end and remain on three points. Arsenal’s dominant performance in the second half highlighted their attacking depth and defensive solidity, sending a strong message to the rest of the competition.

Arsenal Apologises to Atletico Madrid After Hot Water Glitch Disrupts Training

Wale busari02 mins

Arsenal have apologised to Atletico Madrid after a hot water failure at Emirates Stadium disrupted the Spanish side’s pre-match preparations. The issue left Atletico players unable to access hot showers following their Monday evening training session ahead of Tuesday’s Champions League group-stage clash. UEFA rules allow visiting teams to train at the host stadium the day before a fixture. Diego Simeone’s squad was forced to cut the session short after discovering there was no hot water in their dressing room. The team, scheduled to finish at 19:30, ended training 15 minutes early and returned to their hotel. Spanish newspaper Marca reported that Atletico players were frustrated by the disruption. Arsenal later apologised to the visiting staff, and the issue was resolved shortly afterward. Mikel Arteta’s side have won their opening two Champions League matches without conceding a goal, while Atletico bounced back from a 3-2 defeat to Liverpool with a 5-1 victory over Eintracht Frankfurt. Arteta praised Simeone’s team for their discipline and competitiveness. “You can sense their willingness to win in every ball and every yard. Their organisation and discipline are very high, and they have recruited talent suited to their style over the years. They are excellent at exploiting opportunities,” Arteta said.
