West Brom - Arsenal. Premier League (England). 31/12/17. Corners

We congratulate all football fans on the New Year. And we wish everyone spectacular football and positive emotions from the football show.

On New Year's Eve England, according to the old tradition, gives us a football spectacle. And although many players at this time dream to relax, but the audience (as one of the main characters of the football show) wants to get unforgettable emotions.

The expert team of site Corner-stats.com suggests paying attention to corners in the match between West Bromwich Albion and Arsenal, which will be held on the Eve of the New Year.

Let us use Corner-stats.com service "Relations" for this purpose, that you can find on the tournament page for any championship (https://corner-stats.com/premier-league/england/tournament/1).

If we look on the ratio of indicators of the ball possession to corners, then both teams in the 2017/18 season in the English Premier League have the value of "possession / corners " more than 10%. It means that teams need more than 10% of playing time in order to take one corner.

The ratio of "ball possession/ corners" of  West Bromwich Albion is 8.33, indicating that the result of the attack is often the corner. But will WBA attack a lot in the match against Arsenal? Probably not.

But an average individual total of rivals of West Bromwich Albion is 13.64% / corners, which indicates that the defense of the team rarely hits the ball into the corner.

Herewith the average individual total for Arsenal is 9.6% / corner, which is the average for the Premier League. At the same time, the individual total "possession / corners” of Arsenal's opponents is 10.74% / corners and is not very different from the individual total of Arsenal, which stresses that the occurrence of the corner in the match depends a little on who owns the ball.

As always, let's look at the total corners statistics under 10 for the Premier League match for these teams:

• 5 of 6 home H2H matches of West Bromwich in the 2018/18 season;
• 7 of 10 last home matches of West Bromwich in the 2017/18 season;
• 8 of 9 last away Arsenal matches in the 2017/18 season;
• 2 of 3 home matches of West Bromwich with the teams that are similar to Arsenal in 2016-2017 years;
• 9 of 14 away matches of Arsenal with the teams that are similar to West Bromwich in the 2016-2017 years (you can see this data on the screenshot below or on the site of corner-stats.com).

The team of Corner-stats.com believes that Arsenal will solve the issue of the match winner in the first half, and then Arsenal’s players will control the game (trying to make a New Year gift to their fans and mentally preparing for the New Year holiday), that is why in the match few corners will be taken, and the bet on Asian total corners under 10 at 1.90 at  Bet365 looks convincingly.
