Arsenal v Man Utd- This game has to be the one that most Premiership football fans will be watching this weekend, Arsenal entertain rivals United at the Emirates. The Gunners go into this game in the midst of their ‘mini crisis’ (losing one game) whereas United have an unbeaten run of 12 games in all competitions. It would be wrong to rule out Arsenal due to their patched up team(due to suspensions and injuries), they have in the past managed to win when the odds were against them. After completing this game United would have played all their title rivals away from home, at the moment they only have 1 point to show from these games. United will be a threat with players like Berbatov, Rooney and Ronaldo, they certainly are a joy to watch when they all click.
Surely this game we will show us how the Arsenal players react when the pressure is on them, will they prosper or will they wilt?
Betting tips- United away from home are favourite to win this match at odds of 2.34 on Betfair. But Manchester United haven’t won at the Emirates yet and have only have 1 win in 8 games away to Arsenal. So the best bet would be to back the draw at odds of 3.3 currently on Betfair. Also go for a small bet on Berbatov to score at anytime at odds of 3.35.
UPDATE- What a great match to watch, chances at both ends and some great football played by both of these title challengers. I’m sure that if United had scored then they wouldn’t have ended up on the losing team. The bet to go for the draw wasn’t successful this time, looking back at it, no matter how bad the Gunners’ last results have been, it was a little crazy for them not to be favourites when playing at home.
