Manchester City Betting Preview
Manchester City comes into this game sitting in second place in the standings having picked up 70 points. Manchester City now controls the Premier League championship, but if they don’t win this game, they open the door right back up. On Saturday Man City faced off against Sheffield United in the FA Cup and they ended up winning 3-0. Riyad Mahrez scored all three goals. Manchester City comes into this game sitting pretty healthy heading into this game. Nathan Ake is the only one that is really dealing with an injury but there is a chance he will be healthy enough to go in this game.
Arsenal Betting Preview
On the other side of this matchup is Arsenal who sits in 1st place in the standings having picked up 75 points. Arsenal has really struggled heading into this game in terms of winning games. In the last game they needed a goal by Bukayo Saka in the 90th minute to even pick up a point. William Saliba is dealing with a back injury and it’s unclear when he’s going to be back with the team. Takehiro Tomiyasu and Mohamed Elneny are working their way back from knee injuries but they aren’t going to be able to go in this game. Arsenal needs to do everything in their power to pick up the three points here.
Shane’s Free Pick
The defense for Arsenal has been awful heading into this game, and they are going to struggle to defend again in this game. Manchester City might be able to go over the number by themselves here. I do expect Arsenal is also going to find a way to score a couple of goals. Back the over 3.5 goals to cash here.
