Champions League picks for Arsenal vs. Atalanta

Before you tune in to Thursday's match, you need to see the Champions League picks from soccer expert Martin Green. After working in the sports betting industry for several years, Green became a professional sports writer and handicapper and has covered the game worldwide. Last year he was profitable in multiple areas on his soccer picks, including Euro qualifying (+6.30 units), the EFL Cup (+4.47), the FA Cup (+3.07) and the Champions League (+3.05) among others.

For Atalanta vs. Arsenal, Green is picking the Gunners to win for -110 payout. The expert likes what Arsenal have achieved defensively so far this season, whereas Atalanta's defense is a bit concerning. The Gunners have only given up one goal through their first four league matches, and that occurred when Declan Rice was sent off the field in a 1-1 draw against Brighton. Arsenal's roster depth has paid off with midfielders such as captain Martin Odegaard sidelined, and they should be confident heading into Thursday's international match.

Meanwhile, Atalanta are still trying to find consistency. They made some big additions during the offseason like signing Charles De Ketelaere on a permanent deal from AC Milan, but they also lost some key players from last season's roster. La Dea have given up eight goals in four games, and the Gunners are capable of finding holes in opposing defenses pretty quickly. Stream the game here and check out full soccer coverage on CBS Sports Golazo Network.
