The Premier League is finally about to be underway this evening! I have really missed this league especially because it a league that has the biggest competition among all leagues in Europe. The opening match is going to be Crystal Palace - Arsenal as you know. Arsenal are quite highly the favourite side to win this. They have improved their lineup so much that they are expected to be much more competitive in this season. Their last match against Crystal Palace here wasn't good but this time I expect Arsenal to win.
I agree Arsenal should be favourites but it's a bit strange to see odds in the market @1.85 for Arsenal isn't this weird?
Try to watch until the match starts if odds for Arsenal keep changing + going up there is a possibility that the market doubts Arsenal will win
I personally am not in a hurry to bet on this match worry about traps.
If the bookie doubts Arsenal to win then the odds are @2.xx, so far I think the odds are reasonable because Arsenal are also playing away. Also, the home team's odds are @4.2x which I think is a reasonable comparison as this is also the opening match which of course will still be difficult to predict. Unless Arsenal are playing at home, then the available odds may be too high, but if you choose to bet then choosing the option for goals over can also be a good choice such as over 2.5 goals or whatever.
