REF’s picks

Backing over 2.5 goals at 1.55 makes sense as Arsenal's attacking quality should shine even with key absentees, while Hull's leaky defence gives up plenty of chances.

1. 1Arsenal possess strong attacking outlets like Havertz and Guimarães who can break down a visiting side.
2. 2Hull carry a genuine threat through Belloumi and McBurnie to contribute to the scoreline.
3. 3An early goal for the hosts could force Hull out of their shell, opening up the game for multiple goals.
