Man City vs Arsenal Bet Builder Tips
To kick-off this three-pronged approach we are backing Kevin De Bruyne to score anytime in the match. You may be wondering why we haven’t opted for a slightly more obvious goalscorer such as Erling Haaland or Phil Foden, however at the current prices it’s worth considering De Bruyne’s record when playing against Arsenal.
The Belgian has scored more goals against the Gunners than any other opponent in his career and has taunted Arsenal’s defence over almost the last decade. In total, De Bruyne has managed eight goals against Mikel Arteta’s side, with three of those coming last season including a brace at the Etihad in a 4-1 win.
Moving onto the cards and the first of two players we are backing to find their way into referee Anthony Taylor’s notebook is Bukayo Saka. It’s been another fantastic campaign for Saka who looks one of the first names on the team sheet for Gareth Southgate at this summer’s European Championships.
When it comes to disciplinary, Saka may only have been cautioned on three occasions in the Premier League this season, however he does have a tendency to be carded in more high profile fixtures having been booked against Liverpool and Manchester United this term. Defeat here could spell the end of Arsenal’s title hopes so expect Saka to be putting everything on the line here.
The final leg of this 66/1 punt is for Rodri to be carded. The current favourite with most betting sites to be crowned the PFA Player of the year at 3/1, Rodri has once again played a pivotal role in City’s success so far this season and their record without him in the side really does speak for itself.
Last season, Rodri collected more cards than any other Manchester City player and he leads the way this time round also. In total, the Spaniard has racked up eight yellows and one red card in just 25 league games and makes plenty of appeal here in this huge clash.
