Man City vs Arsenal Betting Tips and Predictions – 8th May

Manchester City vs Arsenal predictions and betting tips for today's Premier League fixture including a first goalscorer tip and the best odds for all our bets.

 

Man City will be looking at this game with a different perspective since being knocked out of the Champions League by Real Madrid during the week as finishing in the top four is their only way into the elite competition next season. Similarly for Arsenal, they will be looking for a win to secure a top four finish which will prevent Man United or West Ham playing Champions League football next season.

 

Man City vs Arsenal Predictions

 

It seemed like Manchester City were prioritising the Champions League over the Premier League since progressing to the knock out rounds as they took a 4-2 defeat at St Mary’s last week to ensure players were rested for the mid-week Madrid clash. However, the dream is now over and they will have to ensure a solid final two games if they want to be in the elite competition next season for their new manager.

 

A win for Arsenal would mathematically secure a top four finish which will be a relief for Arsenal fans the way the season has gone. Their protests against Wenger show that they believe enough is enough. However, keeping one eye on Spurs latest results they could still pinch second place if results go their way which could be a big motivator to go and win at the Etihad.

 

The big question is how will City bounce back from the disappointment? They have to come back to reality and produce a solid performance if they are to focus on a top four finish. I personally think they will be able to take a home win here as they have shown solid league form before the Southampton game which is excusable due to the starting 11 Pelligrini put out.

 

My first Premier League prediction for Man City vs Arsenal is going to be a Man City win. Despite it being a slightly riskier bet, as you don’t know how the team will react to the Champs League exit, I think they know the importance of this one. The odds are way too good to turn down as you can get 31/20 with Bet Victor or one of the below enhanced odds offer.

Aguero may have had a disappointing European campaign but he has been on fire in the league. He also shows evidence that he can provide the goods against the bigger teams in the league with a hat trick at Stamford Bridge. Since the hat trick he’s scored two in two games and had his rest last weekend as he didn’t appear at Saint Mary’s.

 

My second Man City vs Arsenal prediction is going to be Aguero to score first. The Argentine is in fine form and also gives you a higher chance due to him taking penalties for the blues.

AGUERO TO SCORE FIRST – 4/1 with Coral.

Alexis Sanchez is another player who has stepped it up in the later stages of the season. He has provided a big chunk of the goals since Giroud and Welbeck have been on a goal drought and is joint top goalscorer this season. He has netted five times in four games recently before a quiet last two games and I fancy him to find the back of the net again.

 

My third and final Man City vs Arsenal betting tip is going to be Alexis Sanchez to score from outside the box. The current odds for this are a huge 14/1 with William Hill and considering he takes freest kicks seems a good punt. However, a safer option of him to score anytime is a smaller 11/4 with Coral.
