Arsenal vs Manchester City
Arsenal host the Champions Elect on Thursday in a re-run of the Carabao Cup Final in which they were destroyed.
Three defeats in the last five Premier League football games have left the Gunners 10 points behind their fiercest rivals, Spurs, in fourth position. Win and it will be down to seven, but the betting odds will still be heavily stacked against Arsene Wenger’s team.
And winning this clash would be one heck of an achievement after Sunday’s final misery. Our Asian Handicap betting offer is 4.50 on Arsenal, with City at 1.76 and the draw at 3.60.
Can they do it? Well, that’s up to them, isn’t it?
Former Manchester United star Gary Neville lambasted their performance in the final as pathetic and a disgrace; and if that stinging criticism from a former foe doesn’t get them angry, nothing will. So come on Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Granit Xhaka, Mesut Ozil…let’s see what you’ve got!
The whole club needs to get up for this match against a Manchester City side which will exploit the first sign of weakness—and that means the fans too. Can the Emirates crowd get behind their team after the Wembley nightmare which made it four defeats in six? Well, if they can’t maybe they should take up another hobby! Leaving a final before the end, no matter how your team is performing, is a disgrace too in my opinion.
The Gunners have to take heart and find a way to win. Wigan beat the Sky Blues on their last away game, in the FA Cup, and their recent league trip to Turf Moor ended in a 1-1 draw with Burnley.
Maybe Arsene should get on the phone with Sean Dyche and Paul Cook to know how it’s done!
