And boy does Arsene Wenger know it. Okay, Wednesday’s second leg Champions League clash against Bayern may look like a dead rubber, but it means a whole lot to the Gunners.
Four defeats in the last six in all competitions, with the latest win a triumph over non-league Sutton, at betting odds of little over 1.00, has left Arsenal outside the top four league places. They need to regain the winning habit quickly.
With three teams trying to chase down big deficits, it’ll be a great couple of nights for live betting with a likely goal rush In England, Italy and Spain.
Arsenal vs Bayern Munich (March 8, 03:45 GMT+8)
A good performance, and preferably a win on the night, could be just the boost Arsenal need to go on and succeed in the league and FA Cup. But with five wins and a draw from the last six away games, Bayern present formidable opposition as always. The Gunners have nothing to lose and must come out firing.
Over 1.5 goals by half-time is at 2.33 for a 🌟🌟🌟 bet.
Napoli vs Real Madrid (March 8, 03:45 GMT+8)
Napoli too need a brave performance to overturn a 3-1 deficit, but that away goal could prove crucial, particularly if the home side scores first. The Italians had a tremendous win at Roma over the weekend, so this could be another cracker.
For a 🌟🌟 bet, scores level at half-time is available at 2.10.
Barcelona vs PSG (March 9, 03:45 GMT+8)
Pull up a chair for this one. It gets even better on Thursday when Barcelona attack for 90-plus minutes in front of a passionate Camp Nou crowd. They need to overturn the first leg 4-0 defeat and have been warming up this week by destroying Sporting Gijon 6-1 and a good Celta Vigo side 5-0.
Over 3.5 goals is a 🌟🌟 bet at odds of 2.00.
Borussia Dortmund vs Benfica (March 9, 03:45 GMT+8)
Borussia Dortmund have also been flexing its muscles with a 6-2 mauling of Leverkusen at the weekend, so the first leg 1-0 defeat to Benfica isn’t something likely to worry the Germans too much. But the Portuguese have won the last seven in all competitions.
For a 🌟 bet, how about a surprise win or draw for Benfica at 3.00?
