I did see that the odds for Arsenal were lower than Villareal, almost 3x but I still bet on them. I thought they were just hungry to win Europa since it looks ever more difficult for them to go through via the normal league position. But I'm also hopeful for a 0-1 win. Maybe another Pepe penalty or Saka wonder goal. Go Gunners!
They are still hungry to win it because we saw an Arsenal who played kinda well with one man less so that should be a good factor for their morale as they know that 11 vs 11 they can beat villareal and scoring 1 goal in away counts so much. Now, what is left to do is to take a quick 1-0 in Emirates and win the game and reach the finals. Sounds simple right ? It kinda is.
Coincidentally last night another English Premier League partner of Sportsbet (Southampton) also got a red card and yet managed to play better with just 10 men. In fact, scored first, just that they could not keep hold of their lead,,, but it just goes to show you that mentally they really are both quite strong units when they want to be.
Agree. 1-0 is quite simple. Score one, keep attacking, maybe score 2, and then make sure you defend with your life,,, it is simple:)
