Former Aston Villa star Gabriel Agbonlahor has backed Arsenal to secure all three points in the north London derby this weekend. The pundit has predicted a 3-1 scoreline in favor of the Gunners.
Highlighting Kai Havertz’s form this season and backing Martin Odegaard to find the net, Agbonlahor said (via TBR Football):
“Havertz has started to shine. I’m going to go for 3-1 Arsenal and Odegaard to score.”
The Gunners secured Havertz’s services from Chelsea last summer for a reported £65 million. The German forward initially struggled to perform at the north London outfit, leading to criticism over his signing.
However, the former Bayer Leverkusen star has been in great recent form for Arteta’s side and has racked up 11 goals and five assists in 33 Premier League appearances.
Meanwhile, Odegaard has played an instrumental role in Mikel Arteta’s side and has been in extraordinary form. The Gunners captain has recorded 11 goals and nine assists in 44 appearances across all competitions this season.
