1X2 Betting Odds
| Arsenal (1) | X | Chelsea (2) |
| 11/17 | 5/2 | 15/4 |
The 1X2 betting market is one of the simplest and most popular wagers in football betting. The 1 refers to the Home team (Arsenal), 2 is the Away team (Chelsea), and X means a draw.
You can pick one out of three choices in this market:
- 1: Arsenal wins
- X: The match draws
- 2: Chelsea wins
Here’s how to read the Arsenal vs Chelsea betting odds for the 1X2 market: The odds are 11/17 for Arsenal, 5/2 for a draw, and 15/4 for Chelsea. In fractional odds, the numerator indicates the expected profit in relation to the bet amount, which is mentioned in the denominator. So, with 11/17 odds, bets on the Gunners pay £11 for every £17 if they win. Successfully predicting a draw pays £5 for every £2, and correctly betting on Chelsea’s win pays £15 for every £4 bet. Bookmakers also return the stake (betting amount) on successful bets.
When an outcome is considered less likely, bookmakers give it “long” odds. This means your potential payout will be higher, but your bet has a low chance of winning. On the other hand, bets with “short” odds pay less, but have a higher likelihood of winning.
This doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t bet on teams with long odds. Consider their recent form, head-to-head history, and injury before deciding which way to bet. You can also find valuable bets for underdog teams in the handicap, double chance, and BTTS markets.
Double Chance Odds
| Arsenal or Draw | Arsenal or Chelsea | Draw or Chelsea |
| 1/6 | 1/4 | 1/1 |
Double Chance is a low-risk alternative to 1X2. This market allows you to cover two outcomes instead of one. This increases your chances of winning the bet to 66% (2 out of 3). However, bookmakers offer short odds here due to the high win probability.
The double chance betting options for this fixture are:
- Arsenal or Draw (1X)
- Arsenal or Chelsea (12)
- Draw or Chelsea (X2)
Double chance bets are typically useful for cautious bettors or if you believe both teams are strong and predicting a winner may be difficult. However, if you think your team is a clear favourite, opt for 1X2 for more favourable returns.
Handicap Betting Odds
| Arsenal (-0.75) | Chelsea (+0.75) |
| 4/5 | 20/23 |
| Arsenal (+0.75) | Chelsea (-0.75) |
| 1/9 | 5/1 |
| Arsenal (-1.75) | Chelsea (+1.75) |
| 9/4 | 10/33 |
Handicap bets are useful when you want to give an advantage to your chosen team. Let’s say you think Arsenal has an edge in this fixture, but you want to bet on Chelsea. Pick the handicap market to give them a headstart.
For example, a +1.5 handicap means 1.5 points will be added to Chelsea’s total, and the same amount of points will be deducted from the Gunners. So, a final score of 3–1 becomes 1.5–2.5 after adjusting for the (+/-) 1.5 handicap. This means bets on Chelsea win, even if they lose the match.
Consider the Arsenal vs Chelsea odds in this market only if you can predict how close or wide the scoreline will be. Here’s how different handicaps affect the final result:
- Arsenal -0.75/ Chelsea +0.75: Bets on Chelsea win if they win, draw, or lose by one goal, as a score of 2–1 will be calculated as 1.25–1.75. Arsenal will need to win by two goals to overcome the gap (2–0 becomes 1.25–0.75).
- Arsenal +0.75/ Chelsea -0.75: This is the opposite scenario where Arsenal gets a one-goal lead.
- Arsenal -1.75/ Chelsea +1.75: Chelsea gets a three-goal advantage with this handicap. So, a score like 3–0 will be adjusted to 1.25–1.75. Arsenal will be able to overcome the gap if they win the match with a four-goal margin.
Both Teams to Score (BTTS) Odds
| Yes | No |
| 3/4 | 24/25 |
Both Teams to Score or BTTS is suited for new bettors, as it considers only one aspect of the game: whether both teams score in the full 90 minutes + stoppage time.
BTTS “Yes” bets win if the final score is at least 1–1 or higher. On the other hand, the “No” bet wins if either or both teams fail to score and the final score has a zero in it, like 0–0, 2–0, or 1–0.
Consider the clean sheets (where the opposition team’s score is zero) when analysing the Arsenal vs Chelsea odds in this market. The higher the clean sheets, the higher the chances that “No” bets may win. Arsenal kept four clean sheets in their last 10 matches, while Chelsea kept two. Their last 10 head-to-head matches had 4 clean sheet. Use this data to minimize your risk.
Goal Total (Over/Under) Odds
| Over 2.5 | Under 2.5 |
| 20/27 | 20/21 |
In this market, bettors have to predict the combined total number of goals. For this fixture, the default betting line is set at Over or Under 2.5 goals.
- Over 2.5 means you’re betting that the match will have three or more goals. Scores like 1–2, 2–2, or 3–0 will all win in this bet.
- Under 2.5 wins if the game ends with two or fewer goals, such as 0–0, 2–0, or 1–1.
For this fixture, punters can adjust the betting line between 1 and 4 goals combined. Both Chelsea and Arsenal have strong attackers in their squad, who are known for scoring freely. If you are a cautious bettor, consider a low-risk bet like Over 1. This wins as long as both teams score at least once.
Also, consider their combined average goals in the last 10 matches when looking at the Arsenal vs Chelsea odds in this market. Chelsea averaged 2.6 goals in this period, while the Gunners averaged 2.0. This brings their combined average to 4.6, which is well above the 2.5 betting line. Use this data to minimize risk.
Correct Score Odds
| Correct Score | Arsenal vs Chelsea Odds |
| 0–0 | 11/1 |
| 1–0 | 13/2 |
| 1–1 | 17/3 |
| 0–1 | 14/1 |
| 2–0 | 15/2 |
| 0–2 | 30/1 |
| 2–2 | 14/1 |
Here, you have to predict the exact final score of the match, not just the outcome. This makes it a risky bet. because predicting a precise score can be difficult. Choose only the smallest amount of bet when considering the Arsenal vs Chelsea odds for this bet. New bettors should avoid this market.
