Arsenal v Atletico Madrid Betting Tips: Latest odds, team news, preview and predictions

Arsenal welcome Atletico Madrid to the Emirates Stadium for Arsene Wenger's final home game in Europe as the two sides face off in the Europa League semi-final first leg.

The Frenchman announced last week he would be stepping down as Gunners manager after nearly 22 years in charge and will be aiming to go out on a high note.

Atletico Madrid's away form heading into this Europa League semi final has been less than impressive and Los Rojiblancos' record of one win in their last six matches in the road should be a source of hope for Arsenal.

Latest odds

dabblebet offer Arsene Wenger's men at 6/4 (2.50) to claim a first leg victory, with the north Londoners having won four of their six home ties in the competition this season.

Atletico Madrid are priced at 15/8 (2.88) and the draw is available at 9/4 (3.25).

Team news

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is ineligible while Henrikh Mkhitaryan remains injured. Mesut Ozil is a doubt after missing the weekend win over West Ham with illness although Jack Wilshere should return.

For Atletico, Diego Costa is a major doubt despite being included in the squad for the game, but full backs Filipe Luis and Juanfran will also be missing. 

Atletico vulnerable on the road

While Diego Simeone's side boast the best defensive record in La Liga, they have conceded in each of their last eight matches on the road in all competitions.

Arsenal, meanwhile, have been extremely strong in front of goal at the Emirates and have netted in 18 of their last 20 matches, so they will fancy their chances of getting on the scoresheet once more.

Tips and predictions

The Gunners can be backed at 6/4 (2.50) to score over 1.5 goals as they have done in their last six home games.

Both teams to score also appeals at 4/5 (1.80), with this bet paying out in ten of the last 14 games at the Emirates in all competitions.
