Arsenal vs Everton Prediction and Betting Tips - 22nd May 2022
Arsenal are set to play Everton at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday in the English Premier League.
Arsenal come into this game on the back of a 2-0 loss to Eddie Howe's Newcastle United in the league. An own goal from centre-back Ben White and a goal from Brazilian midfielder Bruno Guimaraes secured the win for Newcastle United.
Everton, on the other hand, beat Patrick Vieira's Crystal Palace 3-2 in the league. Second-half goals from centre-back Michael Keane, Brazilian attacker Richarlison and striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin sealed the deal for Frank Lampard's Everton. First-half goals from French striker Jean-Philippe Mateta and Ghana international Jordan Ayew proved to be a mere consolation for Crystal Palace.

Arsenal vs Everton Prediction
Arsenal are fifth in the league, two points behind fourth-placed Tottenham Hotspur with only one game left. The loss to Newcastle United was a punch in the guts for the club and fans, who were dreaming of a return to the Champions League next season. It now looks extremely likely that Tottenham Hotspur will clinch the fourth position.
However, Arsenal have a lot to be positive about. The performances of young attackers like Bukayo Saka, Emile Smith Rowe, Martin Odegaard and Gabriel Martinelli has often been the difference between an Arsenal win and an Arsenal loss; while centre-back Ben White, who cost Arsenal nearly £53 million last summer, has asserted himself well in the Gunners' defence.
Does Saka deserve to play for a better team? 🤔

Everton, on the other hand, were joyous after beating Crystal Palace recently. That win secured Premier League safety, and now Everton have some big decisions to make. Star forwards Richarlison and Dominic Calvert-Lewin are attracting interest from clubs across Europe.
3 - Richarlison has reached 10+ goals in a Premier League season for a third time for Everton (also 2018-19 and 2019-20), only the second player to do so for the club, after Romelu Lukaku (4). Responsibility. https://t.co/N8dGoumPSm
Everton have not shied away from spending money, but only a handful of their recent signings have proved to be worth the spend.
Arsenal have to win this game to stand a chance of finishing 4th; both teams will be coming to this game on the back of emotional recent games. Arsenal to edge past Everton.
