It’s easy to bet on soccer: check out our tutorial.

While Roma is the defending champion, the Italian side isn’t the favorite to win. Premier League giant Arsenal, which has won five straight in club competition to open the domestic season, is tagged as the favorite at +300. With another season quickly approaching, let’s take a look at the groups and which teams should be favorite to win.

Gunners ready for battle

An easy way to take control of your sports is league is to just never lose or tie any games. While anyone making soccer bets will know that is a ridiculous proposition for any team, Arsenal has found a way to get 15 out of 15 points during its first five games in the Premier League. Teams haven’t been scoring on the Gunners.

Arsenal has only allowed four goals, while scoring 13, to start the season. Gabriel Martinelli, Gabriel Jesus and Martin Odegaard have all scored three goals apiece to tie for a team high. Arsenal is -335 to win Group A also being placed with PSV Eindhoven, Bodo/Glimt and FC Zurich.

Is Roma up to the challenge?

Defending champions Roma, which are -167 to win Group C, have done well under coach Jose Mourinho. they are off to a strong start in league play, winning three games and drawing another. The Italian side will have a legitimate challenge in the group with Real Betis (+170).

Roma has added some spice to its attack by bringing in Argentinian striker Paulo Dybala. Thus far, Roma hasn’t been the most dynamic team in Serie A play. Dybala leads the team with two goals, while four other players have also gotten in the act to score goals. Roma is +800 to repeat as champions.

Manchester United gets act together

There were a lot of nervous people at Old Trafford after Manchester United opened the Premier League by Brighton and Brentford. However, the Red Devils have turned things around and now built momentum by scoring three consecutive one-goal victories. Manchester United, which is -225 to win Group E and +400 to win the league title, haven’t quite found its scoring touch yet.

The Red Devils were originally trying to help Cristiano Ronaldo find a new home, but he will be with the team until at least January. Manchester United will try to utilize his skillset the best they can to help boost its offense. Marcus Rashford hasn’t lived up to his end of the bargain.

While Manchester United is still in flux, it is clear that manager Erik ten Hag may be in the process of righting the ship for the Red Devils. Manchester United is in a group with Real Sociedad, Omonia Nicosia and Sheriff Tiraspol.

Lazio could be a tough out

Serie A’s Lazio is a -118 favorite to win Group F and +2500 to win the league. Thus far, Lazio is in the early stages of figuring out its attack. In four league games so far, Lazio has scored five goals.

Italian forward Ciro Immobile leads the team with two goals, both of which came on penalty kicks. So far, Lazio has two wins and two draws in league play. If the Italian side can figure out a way to add some more quality in its attack, they could be contenders in the Europa League.
