108/1 Ultimate Bet Builder for City vs Arsenal
Before becoming a Sports Journalist for Free Super Tips, Aaron spent three years studying Sports Journalism at the University of Sunderland while taking in the Black Cats' 'glory years' under Martin O'Neill. Now back in Northern Ireland he turns niche stats into predictions for FST, while he's one of the few people on this island who is equally comfortable at Windsor Park and the Aviva.
It’s been a while since we’ve had a true title decider in the Premier League, but that’s what Sunday’s showdown at the Etihad is shaping up to be.
Arsenal’s shaky form leaves them vulnerable ahead of their visit to Manchester City, with a victory for Pep Guardiola’s side putting the title in their hands.
We’ve backed the Citizens to secure a vital three points in our Manchester City vs Arsenal predictions, and I’ve picked out a few more player props to put together an 108/1 Ultimate Bet Builder.
Man City vs Arsenal Ultimate Bet Builder
Nico O’Reilly to score anytime
Nico O’Reilly has been City’s hero on a few occasions already, most notably the Carabao Cup final victory over Arsenal. The England international scored twice at Wembley, while he took his tally to nine with a strike at Chelsea last weekend.
O’Reilly scored twice for City in their 2-1 win over Newcastle at home in February, and he’s recorded a shot on target in nine of his last 10 appearances for the Citizens. Given how little fear he showed when pushing forward from left-back against Arsenal at Wembley, he’s backed to score again on Sunday.
Nico O’Reilly to commit 2+ fouls
While the full-back is expected to find the net, he’ll also have plenty to do defensively, with Bukayo Saka expected to feature for the first time since the Carabao Cup final.
O’Reilly committed two fouls in that victory, while he leads the way for City with 35 fouls committed in the Premier League this season. The defender has made two or more fouls in four of his last six games for his club, and he’s going to face a difficult assignment against Saka and Jurrien Timber, who have drawn a combined 80 fouls down Arsenal’s right in the league this season.
Bernardo Silva to be carded
Silva committed three fouls in City’s Wembley victory over Arsenal, but the Portuguese managed to escape a yellow card on that occasion. However, he has been cautioned on six occasions across the previous 10 Premier League clashes between these sides.
He has seven bookings against Arsenal in his career, while he’s picked up a card in six of his last 11 appearances for City.
Viktor Gyokeres to be carded
Gyokeres picked up his fifth Premier League booking of the season against Bournemouth last weekend, and frustration was clearly getting to him as he struggled in front of goal.
Only Jurrien Timber has committed more fouls for Arsenal in the Premier League this season than Gyokeres, and the Swede doesn’t have the greatest record at big sides.
Gyokeres has picked up four of his five bookings on the road, including having his name taken in visits to Liverpool and Chelsea. With City expected to dominate possession and play out from the back, Gyokeres can pick up another yellow card while leading the Arsenal press.
