Arsenal v CSKA Moscow: Gunners looking to get job done at home
Published:
Arsenal are almost certainly going to miss out on the top four this season. That makes progress in the Europa League vital, starting with tonight’s quarter-final first-leg against CSKA Moscow.
The Gunners have racked up four straight wins and are 3/10 favourites.
CSKA are in good form too. They’re also on a four-game winning run. But their poor record in England makes them 10/1 outsiders on the night.
The draw is 21/5.
Arsenal have only conceded one goal in their last four outings. It’s 21/20 that they Win to Nil at the Emirates.
They’ll want to make home advantage count. A trip to Russia is never easy at the best of times.
But Arsenal’s dire away record makes it even more important that they get a good result here. They’ve only won two of nine away games since New Year’s Eve.
A home win with a -1.0 Handicap is going for 10/11.
Arsene Wenger knows this competition is his club’s priority now. He’ll name his strongest possible team.
Alexandre Lacazette’s return to fitness is well-timed. The Frenchman is 10/3 as First Goalscorer.
You can also get Lacazette and Danny Welbeck to both get on the scoresheet at 4/1.
It’s been a frustrating season for Arsenal fans. But if their team wins tonight, there’s still a chance the campaign will end with silverware.
