It’s not the most exciting of bets but a 0-0 scoreline would be great result for Arsenal, ensuring the Catalans have no precious away goal to take back to Spain.
It appears a massive price at 9/1 but it was the score when both AC Milan and Real Madrid visited North London in recent years, with the Gunners securing victories away from home in the reverse fixture.
Barca have also drawn 0-0 twice on the road in the Champions League already this season so it could be third time lucky for Arsenal.
There’s several big prices to be had on an Arsenal win, but keeping a clean sheet or taking a two-goal lead into the second leg could prove to be decisive.
Arsenal have scored 18 goals in the Champions League this season compared Barcelona’s 12.
