This isn't quite a do or die game like Olympiakos
And Olympiakos hadn't just beaten their other 2 title rivals away in the previous 3 weeks - Leicester are far far better than Olympiakos
Olympiakos is 19 points ahead of the 2nd team and just need 70 points(that's provided the 2nd place team winning all their remaining 9 games) or even lesser(if 2nd place team failed to win it all) to win the title. As long as they don't lose to their rivals, they will win the title so it doesn't matter if they can even beat them.
On the other hand, Arsenal need to cut into Leicester 5 points lead, especially with only 12 games remaining after this and Leicester having 1 of the easiest schedule after this game. Arsenal will still need to play the Spurs(A), Man Utd(A) and Man City(A). Their title hopes is as good as gone if they don't win on Sunday.

Really like Arsenal this weekend. I did the CL game preview against Olympiakos and have say they thrive on these do or die games. Sanchez and Coquelin getting fit is a bonus as well. I will put my money on them coming out victors again.

If they are correct, no away side will win this weekend! Let's see!
Got to say I'm surprised Bournemouth is kinda of favoured over Arsenal. Still think Arsenal will have too much for Bournemouth.

Don't think league form comes into play in a cup competition. Villa needs a win badly just to boost their morale and will probably field a strong team. In the last round, they did beat Birmingham in the midlands derby.
-
Sassuolo looks like the best play to me against a poor Frosinone. Berardi will also be back for this game as well.
-
I agree with Leicester looking abit tired. With their weak squad depth, I think there is a good chance they may not win again(including Bournemouth game) till the festive period is over.
-
I'm going against the whole world with a Man Utd and Liverpool double at 5.01.
-
Seems like the whole world will be on Leicester again. Almost 90% of the previews I read online tipped Leicester.
-
Man Utd -0.5
I'm going against the grain to back Man Utd. While they haven't been playing well but it's hard to deny they are a decent away team. They have won 4, drawn 2 and lost 2 of their away games this season. On the other side, Bournemouth is the 2nd poorest home team in league.
Man Utd has not lost 2 games in a row this season. In the 3 occasions(90 mins game) where they suffered a defeat, they have managed to bounce back with a win in all 3 of them and scored 3 goals(3-1 v Liverpool, 3-2 v Southampton, 3-0 v Everton) in each game. The only time they failed to bounce back was after the pk loss to Boro in the league cup.

This may not be the most important stat but Arsenal has always at least won 1 away game in the CL group stage 11 times in the last 12 seasons. Not counting the seasons before that as CL had 2 group stages instead.

I don't understand this level of trust, when it comes to Arsenal. In fact, the Gunners have yet to win a game in Greece vs Olympiakos, in fact, they have lost 3 out of 3 games there. And now they would win one? At Greece, full with fanatic greek supporters -and oh boy, greek fans are known of their amazing support- against a very good home side I can't find a single reason why Arsenal would win, or even get a point out of this.
Took it from another forum.
QuoteBecause every time Arsenal failed in Greece, the game was a dead rubber. Arsenal had nothing to play for. 2009 and 2010 they had already won the group. Only 2012 could they win the group but still played a weaker side like they did the other two occasions.
Arsenal are decimated by injuries and Olympiakos will be strong at home. But those 3 wins in Greece basically mean nothing. -
Arsenal -0.5
Arsenal has always done well(I mean win but will fall short) in these do or die games. Last season against Monaco, they screwed up(lost 1-3 at home) in the 1st leg but won the 2nd leg. In 13/14, they lost 1-3 to Bayern at home but managed to beat them 2-0 at the Allianz Arena. In 12/13, they lost 4-0 to Milan in the 1st leg but beat them 3-0 in the 2nd leg. Although these were KO stage games but I believe Arsenal is the kinda of team who likes to thrive in this kind of desperate situation.
I don't think their poor record in Greece will play a big part. I don't remember their past games in Greece were those do or die situation. It's either those where they already qualify or don't really need to points kinda of games.

Leicester good run will eventually come to an end but Swansea is so bad nowadays. Hard to bet on them with confidence.
-
A parlay of Liverpool and Arsenal should be a good play.
Liverpool has yet to win at home in the league under Klopp. Swansea has been really poor, their Barca style of play has long gone under Monk. They look more like Pulis Stoke nowadays.
Arsenal has a good away record and should get back to winning ways at Norwich even though they have a few injuries.

Real Madrid scored a combined 17 goals in the game that followed their three previous Clasico losses.

Pahang won 4-1.

Malaysia Cup Q-Finals
Pahang -0.5 @ 1.77
Despite being the underdogs, Lions XII surprisingly finished on top of a tricky group. On the other hand, Pahang who were favs to top their group stumbled and only managed to finish 2nd.
Lions XII looked quite good in their away games against JDT II and Terengganu. Their game away at Kuala Terengganu was probably 1 of their best away performance this season. Pahang may not be in the best of form at the moment but they are traditionally strong at home.
Lions XII will be without star striker Khairul Amri and midfielder enforcer Izzdin Shafiq. Winger Faris Ramli is a doubt as he has food poisoning.
I'm still not very convinced that Lions XII has overcome their away woes. Pahang will need to at least get a win here as Lions are really good when they play at Jalan Besar. With this game at Darul Makmur Stadium, Pahang should be able to get an edge over the Lions here. -
I'm from Singapore and I can tell you a foreign club has won the title a few seasons ago. Brunei DPMM is more than desperate to win the title after losing it last season. You may win your Tampines bet but the odds is no value at all.

Brazil DNB @ 2.1
While both teams are not firing on all cylinders but Brazil should have the edge in this game because Argentina are missing some of their key players(Messi and Tevez) too.
Alot of Brazil players are performing at the best this season for the club. The likes of Willian, Neymar and Douglas Costa are probably their club best performers so far. Beside a better attack, Brazil defence is also stronger. The rumoured lineup is ROMERO; RONCAGLIA, OTAMENDI, FUNES MORI, ROJO; BIGLIA, MASCHERANO, BANEGA; DI MARIA, HIGUAIN and CORREA. A reserve club gk Romero is chosen because there is no better gk. Neymar could have a field day against Roncaglia.
Even if Brazil don't win, I don't think they will lose here.

Liverpool has bring a very strong team to Russia.

Probably last chance for Mourinho. Lose and he will be gone.

Adelaide United -0.5 @ 1.9
Things doesn't seem to be too rosy at Western Sydney after their 3-1 loss to Brisbane Roar in matchday 1. Tony Popovic has to pen a letter asking for fans patience. The last time I read a manager writing a letter to the fans was Gus Poyet when he was still in charge of Sunderland last season. Obviously, he was sacked not long after that.
Adelaide didn't play too well either last week. A few reasons could be because they are not playing at their usual home ground(which is Coopers Stadium) or they are playing the best team(Melbourne Victory) in the league. This week, they are back at home and playing 1 of the weaker team in the league so I expect them to do better to get the their 1st win.

So they will win the Champions League next season too since nobody can stop them?
