Sunday’s Football Tips: Chelsea overpriced to pile on the Arsenal agony

Arsenal desperately need a win today to get their season back on track but it won't be easy in a London derby against Chelsea.

The Gunners have lost their last two games by a 1-0 scoreline and it's now just two wins in five for Mikel Arteta's stuttering side.

They had another tough 90 minutes in Milan on Wednesday night in the Champions League while Chelsea had the luxury of fielding a completely new team for their home Conference League rout of Armenian side Noah.

The Blues have only lost once at home all season, to champions Manchester City on the opening day, so they will be confident of piling on the pain for Arsenal.

Chelsea vs Arsenal top betting tips

With Chelsea in decent form and having home advantage, I thought they would be slight favourites for this one but Betano price them at 17/10 while the Gunners are just 6/4.

The Gunners seem to have lost their spark so that price on a Chelsea win is tempting, particularly if Cole Palmer is fit enough to start.

This game is usually pretty fiery so it could pay to back a busy day for the ref. You have to go to over 62.5 booking points to get to 11/8 at Betfred so it's probably better betting on certain players to go in the book.

Moises Caicedo always gets stuck in and he's 12/5 with Unibet for a card while Arsenal's Thomas Partey is 9/5 in the same market.

Manchester United vs Leicester City top betting tips

Ruud van Nistelrooy finishes his stint as Manchester United caretaker boss as he takes charge for the fourth time when Leicester City come calling.

The Foxes also provided the opposition for his first game at Old Trafford and that EFL Cup tie ended in a 5-2 win for the Red Devils.

Bruno Fernandes scored twice that night and has looked more like his old self of late. The midfielder is 13/10 at Betano for anytime scorer but I'm more drawn to the 2/1 on offer at Bet365 for an assist.

Leicester's Harry Winks has picked up three yellows from 10 appearances this season so there could be some value in backing him for a card at 14/5 with Unibet.

Kilmarnock vs Celtic top betting tips

Celtic were brilliant in midweek as they beat RB Leipzig in the Champions League but there is the potential for a hangover today as they make the trip to Kilmarnock.

Rugby Park is one of the toughest venues in the SPFL Premiership and Rangers have already lost there this season. The Hoops were beaten twice in Ayrshire last term but romped to a 5-0 win on their last visit as they sealed the title in style.

Adam Idah was superb in that game and should get the nod today ahead of Kyogo Furuhashi against a physical Killie side. The Irishman is 31/20 at Unibet for a goal which looks good value if he starts.

Set-pieces will be key to Kilmarnock's chances so I like over 3.5 home corners at 10/11 with Bet365 while over 11.5 match corners also looks good at 21/20 with Betano.

Rangers vs Heart of Midlothian top betting tips

There's another cracker in the SPFL Premiership at Ibrox as Rangers bid to build on their encouraging performance in Greece with a win over struggling Hearts.

Philippe Clement looked like a dead man walking after a 2-1 defeat at Pittodrie left his side nine points off the pace in the Premiership title race. But Gers responded by beating Motherwell in the League Cup semi-final then claimed an excellent 1-1 draw away to Olympiakos in the Europa League.

On the same night, Heart of Midlothian were losing 2-0 at home to Heidenheim in the Conference League and it's now just one win in four for new boss Neil Critchley after kicking off with two victories.

With both sides coming off the back of a Thursday night game, this could be tight so I fancy a Rangers win with under 3.5 goals at 5/4 with Betano.

Nedim Bajrami looks the pick of Clement's summer signings and the Albanian winger looks a little overpriced at 10/3 for anytime scorer with Bet365.
