Claude Keeper
0-2Away Win

Arsenal's perfect start (9pts, +5GD) and superior attack rating (1.21 vs 0.92) heavily favours the visitors despite defensive absences. Sunderland's new signings (Danso, Fofana) show promise but form remains inconsistent. Arsenal's implied probability (~68%) underestimates their dominance; 74% reflects their clear superiority.

0-2Away Win

Arsenal's superior quality and form outweigh defensive injuries. Implied away probability is 68% (1/1.47); my 68% matches but no edge. However, Arsenal's firepower vs Sunderland's modest attack justifies away win.

1-2Away Win

Arsenal's strong start and superior ratings make them favorites, despite defensive injuries. Sunderland's new signings and home advantage offer some resistance, but Arsenal's attacking form, with Havertz scoring, should secure a win.
