Arsenal vs Manchester City

Today's featured game is the Premier League encounter between Arsenal and Manchester City. Arsenal have been in mixed form of late due to Champions League committments and a stretched squad but have been typically dominant at The Emirates this season nonetheless. Manchester City have had a good campaign but don't win enough on the road although they really could do with taking something from today's game.

Arsenal have struggled of late to juggle competing on various fronts with a stretched squad but both of those issues have been partially, if not entirely, resolved by exiting the Champions League and also having some injured players return to their ranks. Arsenal have actually lost three consecutive games currently but it's worth noting that all of those games were away from home. Arsenal have won their last five Premier League games at home, which takes their tally to fourteen wins from seventeen home games this season. They average scoring nearly three goals per home game and don't even average conceding a goal per home game. They're a terrific force at home and as they now welcome back the likes of Robin Van Persie and Andrey Arshavin to their ranks, I can only see a stronger Arsenal emerging today as a result. Arsenal haven't done well defensively of late but their attack has regained some of its potency so I expect them to do the damage by scoring a lot of goals tonight aganist a weak City defence.

Manchester City enter this game on the back of a demoralising but all-too-familiar derby defeat against Manchester United. It wasn't so much the affirmation that United are the bigger and better side in Manchester (or near Manchester for the pedantic City fans that have just muttered that under their breath!) but the manner of the defeat will have hurt them a lot - a last minute goal by a local lad in their own backyard - so I expect them to have been hurt from the outcome. I also feel that the reason they lost the game - aside from being outplayed - was that they bottled it. Their big names didn't turn up and they looked like an inexperienced side in their current position, which is exactly what they are. City are not used to this kind of pressure; Arsenal are. I'm not saying that City have to win this game but the more points they take the better if they intend on playing Champions League football next season. You can rest assured that their Arab owners will be demanding it so the pressure will be visible and I expect that to impact their performance today.

Can we read much into City beating Arsenal 4-1 at home earlier this season? Not for me, no. City played well but it was early season and they wanted to make their mark on the Premier League as a new "big team", which they did. We all know Arsenal cannot defend so they basically crumbled although it's worth noting that Arsenal did have their fair share of chances during that game. Arsenal are not going to want to do anything but beat a side with Adebayor and Toure in and Wenger loves to keep his fans happy at home so I think we'll see the real Arsenal turn up here. If both sides do then it should be a very good and open game of football but I can see City buckling and Arsenal capitalising on their weak defence. Either way, odds of 10/11 on Arsenal to win any game has to be taken into consideration with the quality at their disposal and outstanding manager so I think the home win represents good value today.

Verdict: Arsenal to win at 10/11.

Saturday's Picks

My tips:

As ever, below are my recommended value tips for today in no particular order:

Lanus vs Arsenal de Sarandi - home win at 10/11.

Hosts Lanus plough relentlessly onwards on their impressive unbeaten run, which now stretches to six consecutive Primera Division games. They've not conceded in any of their last three home games, winning twice, and drawing once. They've already won four out of seven at home in their current campaign and have only lost once during that run so Lanus are generally a good home side. We all know the quality of Lanus is there although their inability to score more than once in a game does concern me as as that's what let them down last match at Colon de Santa Fe. However, Lanus do have a good record against Arsenal de Sarandi in recent times with a 5-2 win at Arsenal in the Apertura and a 2-1 win the last time the two sides locked horns here so they do have the mental edge to boot.

Arsenal de Sarandi are on a dire run of form with no wins in their last four games, losing three times along the way. Arsenal haven't scored in three of those games and only managed to draw with Argentinos Juniors last match by scoring twice. Arsenal have conceded eight goals during those four games - an average of two per game - so their defence is an issue at the moment. Arsenal's away record is quite good with just three defeats in eight away games but it's worth noting that they've lost their last two away games consecutively without scoring so are beginning to find the realistic side of the Primera Division a little hard to handle. Arsenal tend to bail themselves out on the road by scoring goals but if there's one thing that Lanus don't do then it's concede goals - defence is their strongest aspect - so I expect a somewhat demoralised and goal-shy Arsenal to struggle tonight.

Lanus concern me a little with two consecutive draws leading into this game but frankly they're a better side and they're facing demoralised opponents so they should be able to do damage tonight. Lanus have demonstrated various times already in this campaign how competent they are in keeping other sides out and I expect that aspect to be key in their victory tonight. The odds aren't the best around but whilst they're on the better side of 8/11, I feel they're worth taking.

Verdict: Lanus to win at 10/11.

Sturm Graz vs LASK Linz - lay Sturm Graz at 13/10.

Hosts Sturm Graz are playing like a side who knows their fate is not what they'd like it to be and they've got good reason to be in the state of mind. They're eight points behind Austria Vienna and twelve clear of Wiener Neustadt so Sturm Graz can pretty much kiss goodbye to any other league placing than fourth. They've won just once in their past four Bundesliga games so momentum is dropping rapidly. They've won just once in their past three home games in the Bundesliga and it's that kind of form which has led them to winning less than half of their home games in the Bundesliga this season. They've losing motivation for their remaining games and they're not a good enough side to allow quality to solely propel their form so I think we'll see a somewhat disjointed Sturm Graz display tonight, which shouldn't be enough to see them beat a side that they've only beaten twice in their last four home encounters.

Visitors LASK Linz are starting to scare me. They're not scoring goals, conceding goals, or losing games - three absolutely unheard of characteristics when talking about LASK Linz. They're unbeaten in six consecutive game and have drawn their last two away games consecutively against giants Rapid Vienna and the ever-strong-at-home SV Ried so they're certainly worthy of your respect tonight. Indeed, LASK Linz kept a clean sheet at home to Salzburg last match, which meant that they'd kept back-to-back clean sheets against the two bigger sides in the division - Salzburg and Rapid Vienna - so their defence is bailing them out to no end currently. It's defence that should count here as Sturm Graz aren't big goalscorers so I expect LASK Linz to hold firm tonight with their new dogged momentum and take a draw from this one.

Ultimately, an uninspired and demoralised Sturm Graz side that doesn't score many goals does little to convince me that they deserve to be at such short odds. LASK Linz are poor on the road but have been superb of late, particularly in defence, so the odds on laying Sturm Graz look rather generous tonight.

Verdict: Lay Sturm Graz at 13/10.

Naftan Novopolotsk vs BATE Borisov - lay BATE Borisov at 5/6.

I daresay that most of you aren't accustomed to the Vysshaya Liga in Belarus but those of you that read this blog know that backing Naftan Novopolotsk at home is generally a fruitful bet. They've been dominant at home for some time now and are showing signs of materialising into a force at home yet again with two home games played, both games won, six goals scored, and zero goals conceded already this season. Make no mistake here - Naftan aren't as good as BATE Borisov - nobody in Belarus is - but they're a damn hard side to beat at home and I expect that to show today.

BATE Borisov should win the Vysshaya Liga yet again this year but each year that goes by sees them lose quality that they're not replacing so the gap at the top is getting narrower. Indeed, BATE have made a slow start to this campaign as a result of the above information and have only won half of their games thus far. However, their defence is as rock-solid as ever and they remain the only side in this division that are yet to concede a goal. However, BATE are looking somewhat impotent with just three goals scored in four games so I expect them to face a stentorian test against a strong Naftan side in Novopolotsk today.

The head-to-head games between these two sides are rather inconclusive as it depends when these two sides meet here. If BATE arrive motivated and with good momentum in their arsenal then they'll probably win this game comfortably, which is what happened here last season. However, BATE are looking so short in front of goal that it's worrying, particularly with 66% of their goals scored this season having been against newly-promoted opposition. With BATE not firing on all cylinders and Naftan roaring into their traditional home game style, I fully expect a well-fought battle between these two sides which should see anything but an away win at decent odds of 5/6.

Verdict: Lay BATE Borisov at 5/6.

Cibalia Vinkovci vs Dinamo Zagreb - away win at evens.

Cibalia Vinkovci are unbeaten at home in the Prva Liga this season thanks to their steely resolve in defence. They've only conceded six times at home in thirteen games so it takes a lot to win here. The only other side in the division that has remained unbeaten at home this season is Dinamo Zagreb so the two sides do share a common factor when playing at home. However, what is an unavoidable fact is that Dinamo are twice the side that Cibalia are. Cibalia have performed miracles at home this season but they're hosting a side that has won three out of their last four visits here and knows exactly how to do it. Cibalia will not lie down for this game but they can't afford to sit back and soak up wave after wave of Dinamo attacks as they need to keep pushing with their own European campaign if they intend on playing European football next season so they could be burned by the giants of Croatian football. Dinamo have a good record here already and have already won eight out of thirteen away games this season whilst averaging scoring nearly two goals per away game so they look good to do damage today. A win today guarantees the title for Dinamo and three wins in their last five games says that they've got the momentum to do so today.

You'll rarely find generous odds of evens on the away win for Dinamo Zagreb which is partially what has swayed me. Truth be told, the bookies love to over-price Dinamo so I'm surprised they've not gone for the 4/7 option here today. I'm also pleased by that decision because Dinamo now look a good value bet to beat a side that they know they're better than to win the title. Cibalia are no mugs but backing Dinamo at evens against anyone in the Prva Liga is always worthy of consideration!

Verdict: Dinamo Zagreb to win at evens.

Cardiff City vs Sheffield Wednesday - home win at 4/5.

First of all - approach with caution as Cardiff have nothing to play for. However, Cardiff City are a very good side, in my humble opinion, and odds of 4/5 for them to win any home game as worthy of your consideration.

Cardiff have already won eleven out of twenty-two home games this season, losing just five times along the way whilst averaging scoring approximately 1.5 goals per home game. Their home record isn't the most flattering when considering their league placing but that generally shows you just how close quality-wise that the sides are in the Championship. However, what's impressed me most of all about Cardiff of late has been their confident and assured displays, displays showed only by a side with experience, which Cardiff have on various levels. They've won four out of their last six home games and are unbeaten in nine consecutive games and have kept clean sheets for three consecutive games despite facing in-form Reading, Nottingham Forest, and the unenviable trip to the unpredictable Queens Park Rangers. Cardiff haven't scored as many as they'd have liked to of late but should have the perfect opportunity today to do so to improve their momentum ahead of inevitably difficult play-off games so I expect an assured and efficient display from them today.

Sheffield Wednesday are in deep shit, make no mistake here. Every game is a cup final for them at the moment if they intend to avoid the unthinkable relegation but a record of three wins out of twenty-two on the road this season suggests that playing away from Hillsborough is not their favourite pastime. Only Derby County and already-relegated Peterborough United have scored less on the road than Sheff Wed have, hence their problems. A defeat here doesn't condemn them officially to relegation but it's not far off as they have one game remaining at home to fellow relegation battlers Crystal Palace and even if they win that game they have to hope on other results favouring them. Bluntly, I cannot see Sheff Wed approaching this game with anything other than the desire to win or else they're really going to struggle to stay in the division. However, it's just not happening for The Owls at the moment with two defeats in their past three games and it's largely due to having scored just once during those three games. Their defence is usually quite sturdy by one goal is enough to seal a defeat if you're not scoring goals which is what I expect to undo Sheff Wed today.

With the above in mind, I have to favour Cardiff for this game. They might not have the same motivation level as Sheff Wed but they need to keep up their momentum and Jones always has his side locked in battle-mode in their efficient manner so I expect an assured Cardiff side to eventually wear down a determined Wednesday side and beat them at good odds of 4/5.

Verdict: Cardiff City to win at 4/5.

Brentford vs Yeovil Town - home win at evens.

Brentford have slipped under most peoples' radar this season with their impressive displays but I've enjoyed seeing their astute tactical approach to games, an approach that has seen numerous big sides fail to beat them this season. They've only lost twice in twenty-one home games and had they won more than nine times at home then you'd probably find them competing for promotion so they're really not far off being a very good side, in my opinion. All that lets Brentford down is their occasional goal-shy displays but I'm prepared to overlook those in light of favourable odds on the home win today. Brentford have won their last two home games consecutively whilst scoring five times so they're worth being wary of. They're unbeaten in ten League One games and appear to be one of those sides that are perpetually motivated for any game so I have faith in their level of professionalism to try to take three points today despite the cause being somewhat redundant.

Visitors Yeovil Town are only five points clear of the drop zone and whereas I don't expect them to be crying with fear yet, the fact remains that they do need at least one win to assure them of League One football next season so they won't be just sitting back today. Yeovil are particularly poor on the road, unfortunately for them, as eleven defeats and just four wins in twenty-one away games shows all too well. Yeovil don't even average scoring a goal per game on the road but tend to manage to concede approximately 1.5 goals per away game on average, which is a record that will get them nowhere fast. Yeovil have only won once in their last seven games and that was against a doomed Stockport County so they appear to be suffering from a lack of morale currently. Whilst being a dogged side defensively, luck appears to be against them at the moment and in a game that they could with taking something from, that luck couldn't have arrived at a worse time.

I expect Yeovil to attempt to take the game to Brentford today because there isn't much between the two sides quality-wise. However, Brentford have impressed me immensely this season with some assured displays and I expect a professional display from them to result in a home win at generous odds of evens.

Verdict: Brentford to win at evens.

Torquay United vs Macclesfield Town - home win at 5/6.

I'm absolutely dreading this bet! You know what it's like, backing the over-achieving but in-form side and knowing full well that they'll crumble the moment that you back them!

However, I simply cannot overlook Torquay's recently outsanding displays. They're unbeaten in five games and have won four of those whilst conceding just once during that time. They've hammered Rochdale 5-0 at home during that run and smashed in five goals in their last two away games despite one of those games being against an atypically-strong Aldershot Town side on their own turf so I'm pretty much dumbfounded at Torquay's turnaround. They're all but assured of a place in League Two next season now so do approach with caution but a side in this vein of irresistable form in both defence and attack has to be worthy of consideration at 5/6.

Visitors Macclesfield Town are playing well enough themselves to halt Torquay United, to be fair. There's little between these two sides and Macc are unbeaten in six consecutive games so this won't be an easy game for either side. What I will say about Macc's run is that they've faced easier opponents en mass but nonetheless an impressive run grants strong momentum so don't underestimate the visitors today. However, they're coming across a Torquay side in great form that aren't conceding goals today and the long trip south-west may just appear a tad daunting for a driven Macclesfield Town side today.

Although I do expect a close game between two massively in-form sides, I simply cannot overlook backing a driven Torquay United at 5/6 today.

Verdict: Torquay United to win at 5/6.

Lorient vs Girondins de Bordeaux - home win at 5/2.

This is a bold call but it does have method to it. We all know how strong Lorient tend to be at home as just two defeats in sixteen Ligue 1 home games indicating that fact all too well. They average scoring nearly two goals per game at home and only LOSC Lille have a better goalscoring record at home than they do as a result. Lorient have only conceded once during their last four home games in Ligue 1 and will be eager to use this newfound momentum to gain revenge for Girondins de Bordeaux's emphatic 4-1 win here in the Coupe de la Ligue back in February by dealing what would be a crusing blow to Bordeaux's hopes of European football next season. Lorient stand an outside chance of getting into Europe themselves next season so they'll be up for this game and I expect them to have a lot of joy against Bordeaux in this game.

There's no denying that Bordeaux are the better of these two sides - or at least they are under tactical genius Laurent Blanc - but you wouldn't know it from their recent form. Without a win in their last four games, Bordeaux have stuttered massively and have even lost three times during that run. Their squad is running on empty after competing on so many fronts and injuries to the likes of Cavenaghi and Fernando have hindered them massively as Bordeaux are a side that relies upon consistency within the starting eleven but they've not been able to have that for some time. Bordeaux have lost six away games in Ligue 1 this season and three of those have been in their last four away games. Indeed, Bordeaux haven't won in their last four away games so momentum is well and truly dried up at the moment for Les Girondins.

However, Bordeaux need to win this game - fact. They're good under Blanc but their stretched squad could be horribly exposed by a determined Lorient side today in a very difficult away game. Bordeaux lost at Le Mans last match and are more than capable of losing at Lorient by that logic. They have a great head-to-head record against Lorient but it's hard to see that continuing today barring an inspired display. Ultimately, 5/2 on the home win looks too long to me so there could be value in it.

Verdict: Lorient to win at 5/2.

Palermo vs AC Milan - home win at 10/11.

I'm not happy that the odds for this outcome are below evens because it means that bookies are a bit more in-tune at the moment than I'd like them to be. Palermo are rapidly establishing themselves as a very good side as they tend to do every few seasons or so but they're always good when playing in their beloved Sicily so this game becomes even harder today given Palermo's impressive displays since the winter break. Palermo are unbeaten at home in Serie A this season and have won twelve out of their fifteen home games whilst averaging scoring nearly two per home game so they're always a force here. They stand a very good chance of securing European football next season and a win tonight puts them in a very good position for obtaining it too so they'll be up for this game. They've won nine out of their last ten home games and the only side to interrupt that bountiful flow was the ever-irritating Internazionale, as all champions are, so Palermo have done bloody well at home and should not be underestimated.

AC Milan are sinking rapidly and a demoralising defeat at Sampdoria in their last away game will not have helped them. Their injury crisis has virtually destroyed their season with a lack of depth and potency in their line-up tearing holes in their results list. The inconsistent Ronaldinho isn't bringing the same level of consistent quality that Kaka brought to this assured AC Milan side and as a result they look somewhat unconvincing, particularly without starlet Pato bringing youth and innovation to an ageing attack. AC Milan have missed Nesta at the back this season and it has ultimately cost them as he record of having conceded six goals in three games indicates all too clearly. It's wise never to underestimate AC Milan but they've won just once in six Serie A games, which is the hallmark for an out-of-form side. AC Milan need to win this one tonight but they've not done so here since 2006 and I fail to see why that record will change tonight.

Palermo won 2-0 at the San Siro earlier this season with an assured display and have won their last two home games against AC Milan. With that in mind, plus the motivation of Palermo to get their name back into European football, it's hard to overlook good odds of 10/11 on the home win, much as I'd like them to be at evens!

Verdict: Palermo to win at 10/11.

Viking Stavanger vs Stabaek - home win at 11/8.

This is a risky call as neither side are setting the Eliteserien on fire currently with neither side scoring many goals. However, Viking are beginning to look the more likely of the two sides to launch a more convincing attempt for the Eliteserien title now they've got a few of their many players back from injury so I'm hoping that they'll build on that for this game. They don't concede many goals, to their credit, but one win in three home games this season says that they don't score enough. However, they were a bit unlucky to draw at home to Tromso in their last home game and managed to grind out a 1-0 win at newly-promoted Honefoss in their last match so Viking at least have some momentum to work with here and they also have a damn good record against Stabaek here as the visitors haven't won here since 2000, losing four out of their last five visits.

Stabaek are a good side but they're at rock-bottom confidence-wise as an unthinkable defeat at home to ten-men, newly-promoted Honefoss proved last match. When luck is against you, it's against you - simple as that. Stabaek are generally a tough side to play and a constant title threat due to their goalscoring ability but that has abandoned them somewhat this season and it's starting to show as Stabaek really aren't very assured in defence at all. A nightmare head-to-head record here won't help Stabaek with their low confidence levels at the moment and a lack of goals being scored won't help them either. Defeat at home to Honefoss makes defeat at Viking look all the more likely today and although these two sides are capable of cancelling each other out, Viking are looking better as we enter this game so I'm backing them today at good odds of 11/8.

Verdict: Viking Stavanger to win at 11/8.

Aberystwyth Town vs The New Saints - away win at 11/10.

I can't praise Aberystwyth enough for their superb campaign this year thanks to some superb displays on the road. However, they tend to lose a footing on their own turf with too many goals being conceded and their usually pinpoint counter-attacking not nearly as effective due to the pressure being on the home side. Indeed, today's hosts have won three more games on the road than they have at home this season which illustrates my point perfectly. They've conceded more goals at home than any of the eight sides surrounding them in the table have and I fully expect that to be their downfall today against a superior The New Saints, particularly as the hosts have to win this one to achieve European football next season.

The New Saints have long been the daddies of the Welsh Premier League. Llanelli and Rhyl have joined them in recent times but they're still the big name in the Welsh Premier League. A win today guarantees them the title so they've got the biggest motivation that they could possibly require today. The New Saints have only lost two away games this season, which is less than any other side in this division thus demonstrating their ability on the road. They've got a lot of experience in this type of position and have only conceded six goals on the road in seventeen games, which is a phenomenal record and by far the best in the division. TNS don't exactly fill you with confidence in front of goal but five consecutive wins, three of which were on the road, says that momentum supports their cause today. TNS have kept clean sheets in all two out of those three away games with Rhyl being the only side to break through their stubborn resolve and have scored five times during the run so they appear to be finding their shooting boots just in time.

Both sides need to win this game but TNS are the ones with the experience in this situation. Momentum and composure favours TNS massively here so I can't overlook the generous odds on offer for an away win today.

Verdict: The New Saints to win at 11/10.

Prestatyn Town vs Llanelli - away win at evens.

This preview follows a very similar pattern to the preview above other than that the difference here is that this game means nothing to Prestatyn which is why the odds of evens on the away win truly baffles me. Llanelli are far good for a haphazard and uninterested Prestatyn and I feel that had this game been mid-season then you'd have seen odds of 4/7 on the away win at least. Llanelli have already won ten out of sixteen away games this season and need another to have a shot at the title. They need Aberystwyth to do them a favour today for them to have a shot at the title, which could happen, so Llanelli will be well motivated for this one. They're in superb form and score a lot of goals on the road so why the bookies haven't priced them at 1/2 to beat a side that they've beaten every time that they've faced them is beyond me!

Verdict: Llanelli to win at evens.
