Arsenal v Manchester City Odds: Carlos Tevez Can Provide the Goals for City Win

It is a little difficult to understand how Arsenal will approach this game with Manchester City at The Emirates this coming Saturday. With the Premier League title now only a forlorn hope this season, but with Champions League football already ‘in the bag’ for next, they have very little to play for. Paddy Power Bookmakers, nonetheless make the Gunners 10/11 odds on favourites to win the match, with City a 3/1 bet and the draw at 5/2.

City on the other hand are desperately looking to earn Champions League football themselves for next season and will need the points from this to strengthen their claims for the now highly coveted fourth spot in the table. This means of course that they should be a very highly motivated side for this match and could well be the best bet of the day for an away win.

Roberto Mancini, the City boss has seen his side lose the initiative in the race for fourth spot to Spurs, but he will be acutely aware that it is their turn now to face the formidable Manchester United at Old Trafford and if they should lose and his side turn Arsenal over, then the impetus is back with City.

To give punters a little more assurance to back City to win this match, they should note that the two teams have already met twice this season where each time it was City who prevailed. Firstly in the league last September, when they beat the Gunners, 4-2, which they followed up by knocking them out of the Carling Cup by an emphatic 3-0 in December.

With 9 goals scored between them in those two games, it stands to reason that this game will throw up a few more, but we think once again they will be in City’s favour. We would back them to win this match by one goal at the very least and favour a scoreline of 2-1 which we would back at odds of 10/1 with paddy power.

Arsenal v Manchester City Match Odds

10/11 Arsenal
5/2 Draw
3/1 City

We like the look of the 6/1 on offer from Paddy Power for Carlos Tevez to score the first goal in this match. The brilliant Argentine has been in great form all season and it is known that he wants a top 4 spot as much as anyone at the club.
