PREVIEW
These two teams have endured a similar start to the season, but any similarities between their campaigns are likely to end pretty soon.
Arsene Wenger can look onwards and upwards after a disastrous summer, while the only place Steve Kean will be looking is over his shoulder.
Blackburn fans are down in the dumps at the moment and they are unlikely to be much cheerier come 2.30pm on Saturday. Rovers have taken just a single point from their opening four league games and the Gunners can be pretty confident of keeping them on that lowly total.
Wenger has had the chance to bed down his side now and although it might not be his dream team at the moment, it is still a far superior one to their hosts.
A simple bet on Arsenal to win at a decent price is the way to go here.
RECOMMENDATION: (1-10 points)
Arsenal at around 1.91: 6 points
Friday’s Return: +4.64 points
