Why Bet on Manchester City
Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City started the season at full speed, just as everyone expected. It’s not just that they have won all four games they have played, but they have done it with class and determination.
That’s eleven goals in four games, almost an average of three goals scored per match, showing that the Citizens are ready to fight for the championship again. Furthermore, Haaland has scored nine of these eleven goals, clearly emerging as the Premier League’s top scorer for the third consecutive season.
While City beat all 4 opponents they faced at the start of the season, they were held to a 0-0 draw by Inter in their UEFA Champions League debut.
Why Bet on Arsenal
On the other hand, the Gunners have started the season very well, with three wins and one draw in the four matches they have played. As mentioned, they are level with Newcastle in second place in the standings, just two points behind City at the top of the table.
However, Arsenal have struggled a bit more in their games due to the lack of punch from their strikers, as they have only scored six goals so far, but, their defense is mind-blowing, conceding only one goal in the four games played. Saliba and Magalhães keep being at an extraordinary level, but, the star of the season has been David Raya, who just did a spectacular double save in their 0-0 draw with Atalanta for the Champions League matchday 1.
Mikel Arteta has done a phenomenal job with this team and they are expected to stay in contention for the top of the standings.
Arsenal are coming off an excellent win over Tottenham in their most recent match by 1-0.

At Gambyl Exchange, we can get that there is a Moneyline that favors Manchester City at 1.81, while Arsenal starts at 4.44.
Erling Haaland alone has more goals than Arsenal, but Manchester City’s defense has been shaky till now, contrary to the Gunners’. We believe a 1-1 tie is the most likely outcome.
Look for a draw. For example, if you put $100 at 3.60, you’ll see a $260 win with a total payout of $360.
