Tomorrow Arsenal will host Fulham at the emirates, Arsenal are of course the favorites here, and we know they must win this game at all costs because Man City are so close to them that even if they only share points Arsenal could lose the title.



Their chances for now. There are two options I'm considering for now, 1x2 straight for Arsenal and over, considering scoring a lot of goals should also be Arteta target, but the most likely safe option is to bet directly on Arsenal, I consider the factor of the condition of the Arsenal players, they have played Atletico before, so maybe their victory is only with a thin score in this match, what do you think?
 

There is alot at stake here and arsenal has no choice than to win the match otherwise they're going to be giving Manchester City a lot of opportunity to occupy the first position. Arteta has done a good job to bring arsenal to this point because they used to be a very weak team until they started improving but now they are not really at a good point but I still think that arsenal can still turn things around.

Their remaining games are not that tough when compared to Manchester City, but at the same time, it's not wise to underestimate any side at this very point. They look very much like the favorites to win, but I doubt if they are going to score too many goals, even though they need them at this point. I think Arteta's focus is still very much on the UCL, so he might prefer to secure any form of win tomorrow, while resting his players for the return leg of the UCL. Moreover, Fulham are not aiming for any European spot, so It shouldn't be an issue for Arteta.

[Joy- maker]

Casemiro leaving will not be as big of a deal as people think, but Bruno Fernandes leaving will be. There is still no guarantee that he will stay with the team so far, and anything could happen, we are not sure what we are going to see, and because of that I am not entirely sure if we are going to see Bruno staying or not. If he does end up leaving, things will not look great for them and it might get very bad for them.

We should realize that it is not a good thing and he will not be replaced by anyone who is at least as good, whoever they end up getting, will most probably not be as good as Fernandes. This is the most important part, Casemiro can be replaced and even already has but Bruno is a very key figure there.

I am going to agree with you on this because Casimero performance has dropped, I can remember when he newly arrived in the Manchester united squared, he brought leadership, defensive stability, and big game experience, things the Manchester united squared was lacking for years.

So, assuming Casimero left the Manchester united squared a year age or two years ago it could have been a big deal for the club, because he was the backbone of the Manchester united midfield back then, but presently Manchester united midfield doesn't have a clear backbone as it used to be with Casimero at his peak, because things has changed.

It will only be a big deal if Bruno Fernandes leaves the Manchester and united squared, because that dude is not just a player, he is a leader and people like him is what the Manchester united squared need.

The games that may seem not that tough are the very games Arteta's Arsenal tends to lose points against especially at this point of the season. Just remember the past few seasons what happened when Arsenal was racing against Manchester City for the EPL. We are seeing the same script roll out this time and what is worse is that they have that divided attention for the UCL as well.

Yeah, the divided attention is really one (if not the major reason) reason why Arsenal may end up not winning the league title this season and may also lose in the UCL too, I am not being negative or wishing the team any form of bad luck and personally, I've never been a fan of all of this divided attention, especially for club that are not strong and well trained for such task.

There's this common proverb in my place that, someone who is chasing two rats at the same time will likely end up losing both rats, I think Arsenal need to focus on one league at the moment, give that one their best and win..
I've not seen their performance in the UCL since my focus have been 100% on the Premier league since this is the place they are the most closest to winning, i think they still have a chance of winning the Premier league title but only if they do what is right, which I am hoping they do.

[Ale88]

Casemiro is always a super strange case, i mean we all think he is in his last runs in european football but somehow he always pulls some really good and strange stats like this one reaching 10 goals and scoring more than even the forwards of his team, he is gonna reach the world cup in top performance which is alos good for Brazil.

As I said before, I think this (surprising) statistic has one clear reason: United are not Real Madrid. Back in Spain he had a clear job, and he only had to focus on breaking the other team's attacks and then pass the ball (I'm kind of over-simplifying of course); at United he probably understood many of his teammates couldn't solve some situations so he chose to play a more offensive football.

Such as Arsenal's defeat against Bournemouth and several draws against slightly weaker opponents. However, considering the quality and chances, Arsenal should have won those matches easily because the opponents weren't as strong. In recent seasons, Arsenal have consistently failed to reach the finals of the competition, allowing Liverpool to emerge as title contenders. Conversely, in the last two seasons, Manchester City thwarted Arsenal's chances of lifting the trophy and will this season be repeated?

[M47AK16]

Casemiro is a great defensive midfielder who is being underrated due to the kind of club he plays for, back then at Real Madrid he was about one of the finest midfielders, but the Manchester United's declining form over the years it seemed the player was losing his status but all that is beginning to change since the team began to experience some improvement in performance.
 I think he's going to be one of the decisive players for Brazil in the World Cup, I don't think there is any other players that fits in that role for Brazil right now, which means he will certainly be representing Brazil at the World Cup in great form.

I do not know who you were watching, but even back then when he was playing at Real Madrid, he was their third best behind Kroos and Modric who were the real stars of midfield, Casmeiro wasn't terrible, but he was not the best, and then he was not needed so much that they just let him go to United, and didn't even try to keep him. This is why it was clear that he was having a decline, first he was at Real Madrid level, then he fell from Real Madrid level to united level, and now he is falling from united level to Saudi Arabia league level.

[Nahl]

Imagined for last year the gap points between Liverpool and Manchester united reach to 42 points because at that time Liverpool is premier league champion and Manchester united finish at 15th place but this season Manchester united have done well because their position higher than Liverpool on league standing and this weekend according the schedule both teams will met at Old Trafford apparently this is a big game for week 35

If we compared between these teams certainly Manchester united much better than Liverpool especially Liverpool have lost their key player Ekitike who gets terrible injured and have to rested at least 9 month to cured his injured but luckily Isak have return to scores goals last week and hopefully he won't be dissapoint if played and first met Liverpool lost at Anfield and for this game too i think the result will not so different that potentially Manchester united can won the game again

This is why it was clear that he was having a decline, first he was at Real Madrid level, then he fell from Real Madrid level to united level, and now he is falling from united level to Saudi Arabia league level.

If I understand it he wasn't experiencing a decline in performance but rather wanted to continue his career outside of La Liga. Having the same position that Casemiro occupied at Real Madrid made Casemiro personally better in seeking new experiences. However at that time only Manchester United could accommodate him so Casemiro's departure made many feel that Casemiro's decision was wrong. Another reason for not joining Manchester United was that at that time the team nicknamed the Red Devils was in decline unlike now when they are back in the title race.

Indeed when they were at Real Madrid the three of them Casemiro, Modric, and Kroos, were irreplaceable but behind the decision taken by Casemiro at that time the three players would leave Real Madrid every year and also when Kroos chose to retire there was no one from the management to approach Kroos so that Kroos could stay. There was nothing done by Real Madrid management. The same thing happened to Modric even though he was old for a few more years he was still able to be the midfield general for Real Madrid but he was still not retained by the management so their decision in my opinion was a necessity because currently there are still many players who play in the line who can replace the position left by the three players and provide playing minutes for players who are still young but they have also felt champions with Real Madrid.

Winning the game is very important for Arsenal because they are on a race with Manchester City at this point and even a draw can make them lose the title race, the game of Arsenal vs Fulham is always tough most especially when Fulham is playing at home but in this game Arsenal will be the one at home and that will give them a chance to use home advantage to win the game, Arsenal need to perform well and get the three points to go ahead of Manchester City and wait for what Manchester City is going to play in their next game.

The game will not be an easy game and Arteta should know the like of players he will start in the game because if he does not play his important players and want to focus on Champions League this season he will definitely going failed to win both Champions League and premier league because they are facing a strong team if they qualify to the final and it will not be good if he doesn’t win any of those trophies.

Arsenal will need to continue their winning  streak if they want to hold on to the top spot in the table. Arsenal have no  choice. Losing a match would see them lose the top  spot in the table. Manchester City are in very good form. City players will try their  best to continue the winning streak. So Arsenal have  to win the last 4 matches. And try to win by a big margin. Arsenal are likely to lose top spot in the table despite falling behind on goal difference.
However, Arsenal's  past record against Fulham is not good. Anyway, I hope arsenal players will not make any  mistakes in this important match. They will  definitely win.

[Velvet78]

This is likely to be my Premier League parlay for the weekend. Total odds: 3.86

I don't think this week will be the one any of the title contenders lose points on. Fulham are fighting for top 7 but they don't stand much chance at Emirates. The same for Everton even though they are home side.

Chelsea have been losing for 5 games. I know this is the riskiest choice. But at some point they will get a win. I hope it would be in this round.    Palmer and Pedro are expected to play.

One single loss and Arsenal's chance would be out of sight, Fulham won't be much of a challenge to Arsenal, and the sound of the gunner's scoring ability has resolved down to less than a goal or two in their last few games, if Arteta wants to have this title, he shouldn't make his defensive techniques so obvious, this could land him into the trouble of losing a game or two in the remaining matches, yet the last two teams after today's game isn't much of a threat to Arsenal, Palace could be, but not really a big worry, Arteta has to re-strategize now that his winning chances are clear and achievable.

I really think you're giving them a false hope, the time for them to turn things around is already past, now they are believing on miracle to happen, like they actually had their time and chance but decided to mess it all up now they hope on Manchester City to draw or lose for them to win, but I don't really think Pep will let such thing to happen, and this match against Fulham is another critical game for them, because I don't really think they can beat Fulham just like that, so they should better be very careful if they are to win this league.

Arsenal might likely not win the league this season and it wouldn't be surprising.  Their performance recently both in the league and the Champions league has really regressed. Imagine a team that won Bayern Munich in the Champions league,  now with little or no hope for a single cup this season.

After this season, it would only become harder for Arsenal to carry the Champions league because this is the closest they have being in a very long time and it still isn't certain they would lift the trophy.

Arsenal must win the match against Fulham, this is not the time to joke with the Premier League games, any draw or defeat will cost them the league title. Fulham performance hasn’t been consistent recently, Arsenal should be able to win, despite the fact that they are still struggling in term of goals, their last two games in all competitions, they only managed to scored one goal from the each game, Arteta need to work on that with the remaining games of the season.

Based on Arsenal history against Fulham, they hardly play against them without conceding a goal. Arsenal will win the game, but there will be more than two goals from this game. If I have to bet, it will be over goals since Arsenal target should also be in goals, they need it to be ahead of Manchester City with the goals difference too.

Best format to approach this bet tomorrow is going fo over 2.5 odds, this will most likely be a small odds considering the chances of that happening to be very high, this is indeed the reality with this match, I know Asernal to be on top of their games lately and Nottingham forest also is no so a small club that can't be under rated for whatever reason but yes we must point out a possibility which is the possibility of multiple goals in the tomorrow game., betting in that status is more likely going to returns the profits.

Arsenal is not very good at scoring plenty of goals right now, and playing Arsenal and Fulham game over 2.5 is not the best format to approach the game tomorrow because the game might play under 2.5.  If you believe Arsenal and Fulham game will play over 2.5, the best approach on Arsenal and Fulham game is both team score because if the game would end in 3 goals or more, Arsenal will not score the 3 goals, Fulham will also score, so both team score is the best approach in the Arsenal and Fulham game tomorrow.

They know what they are up against they will not want to make any further mistakes because if they really want to win the trophy then they will try and aviod losing because they are aware of what is at stake any mistake then they are out because they are given us more leverage to win and funny enough were I saw video of a fan telling pep to allow Arsenal win the premier league that we have won it enough and the video is just so hilarious it was the last thing I expected anyone to say and they think pep will do that arsenal have to earn it then they will be able to win the league everything comes with a price.

Fulham should not be problem for Arsenal to play against they have all the tactical players for them to win against fulham and gradually the premier league is doing count down for it to finish and either way the trophy is going to be between us the city and arsenal so there is no much pressure again and now both clubs will tighten there belt for them to be able to win the premier league and that is exactly what it take to be a champion tightening your belt as a club.

Chelsea's game has to be the most important game to determine the success of your bet. Nottingham Forest is regaining their form back. They were also beating Villa in europa league. They have also to get three points from SB to retain their position above the relegation zone. So i think it's gonna be a hard game for Chelsea.
It this game is being excluded from your parlay. The chance for it to success is literally big.

Even mine also avoid to bet on Chelsea caused by how unstable they are. I'd prefer BTTS to happen caused by how weak Chelsea's defense.
