Early team news indicates that Patrick Vieira is only 50:50 to make the line up. He would be a massive loss if he is missing, as probably the most influential player on either team
Man U look in really good form at the mo. I just can't see them losing, especially when Arsenal look decidedly mediocre at the minute. It may be that Arsenal have just peaked too soon and are now petering out. Man U also owe them one from last year when they clinched the title in their own back yard. Just checked the asian handicap odds at gamebookers, Man U even money on a level ball asian looks good to me - what does anyone else think.
A lot of United fans thought it would be the end of the errand at St James Park on Saturday and would have settled for a point,but if they can turn it on like that at highbury then Arsenal will suffer the same fate,they made hard work of Sheffield United and will have to do a lot better on Wednesday,rightly or wrongly I believe that Sir Alex has rattled Arsenals confidence with his mind games,looking forward to an open game with United going full steam from the off and not to play too defensive and try to contain Arsenal,which could be suicide if Arsenal get the first goal,no bet for me but will be down the casino watching on the big screen at 3.00am my time, hopefully to cheer the reds from Manchester onto victory.
ARSENAL will lose this. Their strong defence is not so stupid like the 1 of Newcastle on saturday to let in goals where the scorer stood wide alone few metres before the goalline. They lost unluckily 1:2 away and they will get revenge. A draw could be enough but a win is decisive so i am sure Arsenal will go for it.
I expect not many goals though...1:0,2:0, 2:1 or 0:0,1:1.
I've been waiting for this game for a long time. I have a big stake on Manu to be champion @ 4.0 from betfair. But I have another good bet for this game. I have been betting on this kind of bet for 1-2 weeks and this has an amazing % and made great profit for me. Here is the bet:
Hey Zodiac,
That was helluva good match analysis. You hit it in the head. I’ve had my doubts but now after reading your expert opinion I’m sure ManU is going to win
and personally I would leave it until the last minute and see how the teams will line up before placing a bet. If Vieira plays then Arsenal would looks a solid pick at around 2.50 but if he misses the game then I would lean towards Man Utd +1/4, not a game for strong bets though ... it's one to savour with the title looking on the line
Vieira and Keane set to start but MAN IN THE MIDDLE
MARK HALSEY
have this stats
Total Prem gms Red cards Yellow cards
20 3 41
but I am sure will be over 2.5 bookings
...will be decisive regarding the players' fitness e.t.c.
Both teams are temperamental, but lately ManU seem more focused.If they are careful a bit more with their defence they have the upper hand.
I hear that O'shea and Giggs are unlikely to start for man u and that Veira and Pires will be given the go ahead. Can anyone confirm this? If this is true Arenal at 2.50 looks great.
is a fav bet of mine for a couple of years and nice call mate!
I looked at Sportingodds and they didnt offer it and didnt realise that Sportingbet did
I backed bookings over 40 for quite a lot of money so that was cool and had 3 or more goals !
which I thought Man Utd controlled and were the better team. Two scrappy goals (one which was offside) cost them but I bet they are overjoyed with a point.
As for the sending off, Campbell had to go, he swung his elbow and made a connection .... enough said. He now faces a 4 match ban which will see him most of the run in and FA Cup Final.
It makes a change for Arsenal players to surround and pressure the referee and Ferguson to shake the Mike Halsey's hand at full time. How times change
just got in from the casino,great game,Arsenal and United fans together good banter(wouldn't happen over there). now the downside,off to work in 45 min but well worth it.
to get a red card tonight..down to the stormy games of the past..so was pretty happy someone did i wonder if the English FA will invoke the rule they passed that no -one can play for the international team in the next game they play if they were sent off in a club game for violent conduct.
Had taken 5 points and under in the bookings market @ 5.10. As you could expect, Sol Campbell isn't excately my favourite person right now!!!
A cracker of a game though!!
but man utd were robbed.
The linesmen must of been getting a drink cos henry was at least 2 yards offside, i was livid, how could he not have seen it. I thought we were better throughout and maybe could of won the game.
An away point at highbury though is a good result and i think the pressure is on arsenal now to win their game in hand
It was not that easy to judge Henrys offside. He was moving back towards Arsenal half and then turned instantly. Ref probably thaught (he needs some tenths of second to turn his head from player, who gives a ball towards the reciever. He was probably thinking, Henry sprinted towards ManUtd goal from behind defenders.
For me, offside rule is the most incompetent rule of them all cause it is imposible for ref to look at two players (who may be 50 yards away from each other) at the same time. So he needs to rely on his feelings. And obviously as we all know, sometimes feelings do cheat us...
