You might not be inclined to agree, after Manchester United flopped in Munich last night to end our Millwall, Steve Bruce and Carlos Tevez inspired winning streak, but we’re still confident that there’s money to be made backing British, and are doing so again in the Champions League.
Arsenal might not be as easy on the eye as the trio we named above (or have we got that the wrong way round?) but their home record this season is the stuff stat anoraks like ourselves dream about: they’ve played 23, won 20 of them and scored 63 goals – yes, nearly three goals a game.
Barcelona, brilliant though they are, lost at Old Trafford two seasons ago, were very fortuitous not to be beaten at Stamford Bridge last season and have won just one of their last seven Champions League away matches, not exactly the form you’d expect from reigning champions.
Even the most committed “best league in the world” preachers of the Premier League church are reluctant to get behind Arsenal tonight, which is why the Gunners are available at the unusually high price of 11/5 on Bet365. However, we reckon it’s worth converting for the evening.
