Timber lines up at right back for Arsenal and is pretty consistent when it comes to winning fouls. The 23 year old has won seven fouls across his seven Champions League appearances this season, five of these have been starts taking his average to 1.50 fouls won per 90. 

His record stays consistent when looking at his appearances in the Premier League this season with Timber averaging 1.07 fouls won per 90 across his 24 matches in the English top flight. Timber’s ability to win fouls is largely down to his ability to utilise his strength and close control to resist challenges of opposition players, usually leading to the opposition needing to commit a foul to stop Timber’s progress. 

Timber’s positioning also contributes to him winning fouls at this consistent rate. Mikel Arteta often gives the right back instructions to invert and come inside when Arsenal are in the early stages of build up which naturally sees Timber in a busy area of the pitch as well as having the 1v1 duel against his opposite winger to manage when Arsenal are without the ball. 

Timber has won a foul in each of his four Champions League appearances this season when he’s played 45 minutes or more. There is value with this selection when backing with PaddyPower, the same market is priced at 1.3 on other bookmakers.
