Arsenal vs Monaco predictions There have been highs and lows for Arsenal in the first few months of the season, but as we head towards Christmas the fan base is feeling a little frustrated. Arsenal have given themselves very little room for error in the Premier League. After finishing as runners-up to Manchester City in 2022/23 and 2023/24. Arsenal ought to have been best placed to capitalise on the champions’ struggles this term. As it is, the Gunners find themselves in a tricky position. After a 1-1 draw with Fulham on Sunday, they remain third in the table. A six-point gap separates them from league leaders Liverpool, who have played a game fewer.

As well as this trip to the Emirates, they are due to face Aston Villa at home and Inter away. A surprise win here would give the club from the principality some breathing space ahead of those last two matches. Still, a finish between ninth and 24th would bring with it a place in the knockout phase play-offs, and that would be a pretty good outcome for Monaco.

Bukayo Saka to score any time
Whenever Arsenal need someone to step up and be counted, it is often Bukayo Saka who takes responsibility.
The England international thought he had notched a late winner against Fulham on Sunday, only for the ‘goal’ to be chalked off for a marginal offside in the build-up.
Even without that strike, Saka is Arsenal’s joint-top scorer across the Premier League and Champions League this term.
Saka is a creator of chances as well as a converter of them, but we like his chances of making the net ripple against Monaco.
The Ligue 1 outfit have only kept one clean sheet in the Champions League. They are unlikely to double that tally here, and in our view Saka is the most likely scorer.
Select Bukayo Saka to score any time at 6/4 with bet365
