Given the amount of attacking talent on show when Chelsea host Arsenal at Stamford Bridge, the goalscorer markets could be a popular option for punters.
Alvaro Morata is a 6/5 (2.20) shot to get on the scoresheet at any point and 4/1 (5.0) joint favourite – alongside Olivier Giroud – to open the scoring.
The Spain international has struggled at times since his move to London and there certainly look more enticing opportunities elsewhere.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is 8/5 (2.60) to score having led the line against Manchester City last time out but Alexandre Lacazette impressed from the substitutes bench.
The Frenchman is available at 9/4 (3.25) to score anytime but team news will be crucial before getting involved in markets relating to the 27-year-old.
The best bet though, looks to be backing Eden Hazard to open his account for the Premier League campaign at 6/4 (2.50) with William Hill.
Having been heavily involved throughout the World Cup, the Belgium international made a late cameo against Huddersfield Town last weekend but has often been particularly influential against Arsenal in recent meetings.
In the last six competitive head-to-head matches between the pair, Hazard has scored three times, including a vital goal in the League Cup semi-final in January.
Given that he should be a danger from open play, set pieces and take over the penalty duties from Jorginho, that 6/4 (2.50) makes plenty of appeal for punters if the playmaker is named in the starting line-up.
N’Golo Kante opened the scoring in Chelsea’s previous game and the France international is available at 17/2 (8.50) to find the net for a second consecutive game.
The best bet though, is the 6/4 (2.50) available on Hazard to find the net and continue his impressive recent form against a Gunners side who are missing several key defenders ahead of their trip to Stamford Bridge.
Eden Hazard to score anytime at 6/4 (2.50) for a 1pt stake with William Hill
