Arsenal vs Wolves: Wolves gunning for blood
England, Premier League, Saturday, December 2nd, 15:00 (UK)
After making a pig’s ear of the trip to Lens, Arsenal quickly extinguished any whiff of another slip-up, as they raced into a four-goal lead within 26 minutes in the return on Wednesday evening in the Champions League.
Not only did it ensure their spot in the knockout stages, but it afforded Mikel Arteta the luxury to rest his big hitters ahead of his side’s Premier League clash with Wolves on Saturday.
It promises to be a stern test for the hosts at the Emirates. Gary O’Neil’s side have given a great account of themselves against the traditional ‘big six’ so far this season. Victories over Manchester City and Tottenham (both 2-1) were the standout performances, but they also came away with a lot of credit during their trips to Old Trafford and Anfield.
I would like to take you back to match day one first. You remember the penalty that never was? Andre Onana clattered into Sasa Kalajdzic, with VAR later conceding that a mistake was made. Well, Wolves outshot and out-created Manchester United that Monday evening.
The Wanderers took the lead at Anfield as well and were level until five minutes from time before capitulating.
All things considered though, their price with a +1.75 headstart on the Asian handicap appeals. The bet is a winner if they get a result or lose by one goal. Half of our stake is returned if they lose by two goals, and the bet is a loser if they get thrashed.
Forest vs Everton: Goals at the City Ground
England, Premier League, Saturday, December 2nd, 17:30 (UK)
Everton’s deduction left them slap-bang in the middle of the relegation zone. Despite the preconceived notion that their form before the docked points would steer them clear of an exceptionally poor relegation zone, recent events have suggested otherwise. The 3-0 humbling against Manchester United at Goodison last Sunday is a case in point.
Luton’s victory over Crystal Palace leaves the Toffees five points from safety. This puts a fair bit of significance on this trip to the City Ground as Nottingham Forest would be a point behind them BPD (before the points deduction).
Steve Cooper’s side have averaged a point a game this term, a haul that would usually see them teetering towards the dotted line. Although they are eight points clear, there are whispers that the former Swansea manager is under some pressure but to be fair, when isn’t he?
So, this game between Forest and Everton sides shouldn’t really incite goals, but it really does, and I think that goal line is worth taking on.
All bar four of Everton’s 16 games this season have seen at least two goals, and half of those games within the first two weeks of the season.
Since September, Shaun Dyche’s side have only failed to find the net against Arsenal, Man Utd, and at Anfield, scoring 19 goals in the other nine games.
Since their stalemate with Crystal Palace, the Tricky Trees’ games have been rife for goals, an average of 4.75 per game with this line met in each of the four.
Man City vs Spurs: Suicide High Line
England, Premier League, Sunday, December 3rd, 16:30 (UK)
Although he does not mind admitting who he takes inspiration from, Ange Postecoglou is uncompromising in his approach.
“I just copy Pep, mate” was a quote of his from the other week, and he has proved that he’ll stick to his opposite numbers principles in the recent weeks. This is despite both Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven being unavailable.
Without the pair of pacey centre backs, the high line Tottenham play is suicidal. Three defeats in as many games and eight goals conceded show as much.
Spurs have gone from two points clear at the top of the league to four points off the pace in the space of a month. With a trip to the Etihad next up, you imagine things will only get worse before they get better.
As ever, Manchester City have been in a formidable goal scoring mood, and Pep looks to have embraced a bit of chaos.
On home soil this term, his side have averaged 2.88 goals per game, scoring at least three in 51.7% of their games.
Given the visitors’ defensive fragility, you would like to think they will have no such issues scoring thrice on Sunday.
- Selection: Man City Over 2.5 Goals
- Best Odds: 2.00
- Bookmaker: Betfair
- Stake: 10/10
