Arsenal’s dominance this season extends to their corner count, with 117 corners so far, making them the fourth most productive team in this category. Averaging 6.5 corners per game in the league, they have established themselves as a set-piece threat, scoring more goals from corners since the start of last season than any other team. While their average drops on the road to 4.7, they’ve still managed to hit 6 corners in 4 of their last 6 away matches. Brentford’s tendency to concede corners—averaging 7.17 per game and allowing 5+ corners in 5 of their 9 home fixtures—makes this target highly achievable for Arsenal.

Gabriel Jesus has become a key figure in Arsenal’s rejigged attack following Saka’s injury. While his offensive contributions are critical, his discipline often sees him committing fouls, especially in physical matchups. His season average of 0.83 fouls per game jumps to 1.8 when he plays a full 90 minutes. Jesus has committed at least one foul in his last five appearances, highlighting a consistent trend likely to continue.

Known for his physical, combative style, Vitaly Janelt is a regular offender when it comes to fouls. Averaging 1.1 fouls per game, he has committed at least one in 9 of his last 10 starts, including 4 matches with 3+ fouls. Up against Arsenal’s dynamic midfield and attack, Janelt’s involvement in duels will likely lead to at least one foul being committed.

With Saka sidelined, Gabriel Jesus has stepped up as Arsenal’s primary attacking threat. His average of 1.57 shots per game rises to 3.41 when playing a full match, showcasing his shot-making prowess over longer periods. In his last five appearances, he has taken 2+ shots in four games and 3+ shots in three of those when starting. Given his central role, Jesus is expected to maintain this trend and create multiple shooting opportunities.

Even in a deeper midfield role, Kai Havertz continues to pose a threat in front of goal. He averages 2.16 shots per game, with 0.92 of those being on target. Havertz has hit the target in his last four matches and in 7 of his last 8, demonstrating consistency in testing the opposition keeper. His ability to create chances even from deeper positions makes at least one shot on target a strong likelihood.

At just 18 years old, Myles Lewis-Skelly has become an impactful figure in Arsenal’s lineup. Known for his strength and versatility, he averages 1.36 fouls drawn per game, with this figure rising to 3.12 when playing a full 90 minutes. Lewis-Skelly has been fouled in each of his last five appearances, and with Brentford’s right-hand side committing at least one foul in their last 17 games, makes this a strong betting angle. To add, Lewis-Skelly is priced at 3.5 to draw multiple fouls, of which he has drawn 2 or more in three of his last 5, offering further extreme value for those seeking higher bet builder odds.

With the increased responsibility following Saka’s injury, Gabriel Jesus has been clinical in recent games, scoring 5 goals in his last 3 starts. Despite limited chances, Jesus has demonstrated exceptional efficiency, scoring 5 goals from just 8 shots on target. His current form and ability to convert even limited opportunities make him a strong candidate for a goal Wednesday evening.

Brentford’s Yoane Wissa is their most prolific shooter with 1.83 per game, whilst averaging 0.94 shots on target per game, just behind Bryan Mbuemo (0.95). Wissa has hit the target in 3 of his last 5 matches, achieving multiple shots on target in two of those. While Brentford may have limited opportunities against Arsenal, Wissa’s reliability makes him a good bet to test the Arsenal keeper at least once.
