Why Manchester City is a good bet -1 ½?

In the first half of the EPL Season, Man City underperformed. The preseason favorites are 14 points behind Liverpool. They have to step it up in the second half to have a miracle shot. They can start the step-up this Sunday. A 2 to 3 goal victory over Arsenal should at least signal Manchester City isn’t going anywhere.

Arsenal vs Manchester City Premier League Betting Analysis

Not only must Manchester City step it up, but Liverpool must implode. That’s the only way for Man City to win the English Premier League. With that in mind, Man City might decide to turn their attention to the Champions League.

A Champions League victory would salvage the season. This game on Sunday doesn’t mean much to Manchester City. It means a ton to Arsenal. Can the Gunners upset one of the top teams in EPL?

Yes, they could. Manchester City won’t put forth as much effort against Arsenal as they will in their future Champions League matches. They can’t afford a top player like Kevin De Bruyne getting hurt. Consider two plays on Sunday: Arsenal to win and the draw. Manchester City should underperform while Arsenal should provide a spirited performance.
