It has all been getting a little bit anxious for Arsenal fans of late, but they are expected to enjoy an easier ride when entertaining Bayer Leverkusen in the Champions League.
The Gunners needed a late penalty to draw 1-1 in the first leg but looked more than capable of proving a cut above their opponents on home turf.
Mikel Arteta’s men have been strong throughout this competition, and we like 20/23 for the hosts to prevail and over 2.5 total goals in the game for our initial Arsenal vs Bayer Leverkusen prediction.

Form Guides
Arsenal Form Guide
The Gunners haven’t been overly convincing in recent weeks, but head into this tie on a high after Saturday’s 2-0 win over Everton at this venue, which helped put them nine points clear at the top of the Premier League .It was another nervous display from Arsenal , but late strikes by Viktor Gyokeres and 16-year-old sensation Max Dowman eventually saw off a determined Toffees outfit.
Arteta’s side have been impressive in Europe this season, topping the initial league table thanks to eight straight victories and averaging just a fraction under three goals per game.Home highlights included a 4-0 thrashing of Atletico Madrid and a 3-1 defeat of Bayern Munich , while they also prevailed by that last scoreline away to Inter Milan.
Gabriel Martinelli has been the man to watch in this competition, netting in all four home fixtures and seven times overall, so 7/4 for him to strike again here stands out from the Arsenal vs Bayer Leverkusen odds.
Bayer Leverkusen Form Guide
Leverkusen are a disappointing sixth in the Bundesliga table this term after winning just one of their last five games in Germany’s top flight. Saturday’s 1-1 home draw with Bayern Munich initially reads well, but the runaway leaders did have two players sent off.
Werkself finished a moderate 16th during the league phase of this competition, but Arsenal will be fully aware of their away wins at Benfica and Manchester City. However, draws with Copenhagen and PSV , a 2-0 loss at Olympiakos and a 7-2 hammering by PSG on home turf suggest this is not a team to fear.
Leverkusen have lost their previous six Champions League round of 16 ties, suffering 10 match defeats in 13 games at this stage. From the list of BOYLE Sports price boosts, 7/2 for the Gunners to win 3-0, 3-1 or 3-2 is added to our Arsenal vs Bayer Leverkusen betting tips.
