Everton vs Arsenal Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 20th December 2025

Everton welcome Arsenal this coming Saturday in the Premier League, with the host motivated by the possibility of closing the gap in the table on the visitors. On the other hand, the latter could distance themselves even further with a win in this exciting round 17 match.

Arsenal enjoy the view from the top of the table with 36 points after 16 league matches this season. Meanwhile, Everton find themselves positioned as number 8 in the Premier League with 24 points following 16 rounds.

Although The Toffees trail Arsenal by double digits, beating the league leaders in the Premier League still holds a lot of prestige. Pulling off a surprise win against their upcoming opponent could provide a serious spark for future matches.

Everton are relatively average in the art of goal-scoring these days. They scored a steady 11 goals in their previous ten matches, for an average of 1.1 per game. They simultaneously allowed their opponents 13 goals, or an average of 1.3 a game. Furthermore, they fought their way to four clean sheets in this run.

When it comes to goal-scoring The Gunners are not the most prolific side. They scored a sustainable 18 times in their previous ten matches, making it 1.8 goals per game. They conceded seven goals for an average of 0.7 a game, achieving a clean sheet in five of these matches.

Betting on the draw would have earned you a sound profit the last time Everton played The Gunners. The pair finished even in a 1-1 match, where no one managed to get the upper hand.

Everton vs Arsenal Prediction

Everton Form

In their last three matches, Everton beat Bournemouth by 0-1 and Nottingham Forest by 3-0, before losing against Chelsea by 2-0. Everton won three of their previous six matches at Hill Dickinson Stadium in the Premier League. They drew one and suffered two defeats, scoring nine goals to nine against.

Ambitions are high for Everton, and winning the title is still possible, but they need to raise their level to achieve the highest prize.

Arsenal Form

Arsenal look back on their last three matches with two victories to show for their efforts. Against Aston Villa, they were left empty-handed in a 2-1 defeat, but they bounced back by beating Club Brugge in a 0-3 win. They followed that up with a 2-1 win against Wolverhampton in their most recent outing. Arsenal managed a decent return of three wins in their last six Premier League away matches, in which they scored nine while also conceding six times. They also experienced two draws and one defeat.

Arsenal were spoken to as contenders for the title in the Premier League this season, and are so far living up to expectations.

Arsenal are expected to win this coming Saturday, and we can't argue with that, but at the same time don't believe in a high-scoring win against Everton.

Everton fought their way to one wins and four points from their last five games against teams inside the top six. They were on target three times in these matches, but also let in seven goals. Arsenal won two of their last seven matches against teams from the top half of the Premier League table, scoring seven and conceding seven goals. They collected nine points from these. Everton claimed seven wins, three draws as well as six defeats in the Premier League this season. Arsenal enjoy a record of 11 wins, three draws and two defeats in the Premier League.
