S.P.Read Esq: Man City v Arsenal
Our daily columnist and pundit S.P. Read Esq. looks ahead to the Premier League game on Sunday (4pm, SKY) between MAN CITY v ARSENAL and finds the best opportunities available on Star Spreads, the home of sports spread betting.
With Chelsea’s easy win yesterday against Swansea the pressure flips back to Man City who find themselves five points back.
Man City are pretty formidable at home, only losing one of their last 17 games (to Stoke) and completed a 6-3 demolition of Arsenal in this game (or was it a tennis match ?) last season.
City will be missing Samir Nasri with a calf problem and striker Edin Dzeko is also doubtful.
However, Sergio Aguero and Vincent Kompany are likely to start after both are back after injury.
For Arsenal Mathieu Debuchy and Mikel Arteta are both out for long term injury problems and Kieran Gibbs is doubtful with a heel problem.

There have been six red cards in the last nine Premier League matches between these two sides and today’s ref Mike Dean is averaging 50 points with his card distribution across 18 games this season.
As such, I am a buyer of bookings on Star Spreads at 55 but also think there will be plenty of goals so am again selling the time of the third match goal which proved a successful strategy yesterday at St James’ Park.
