Sunday Premier League Preview, Betting, Odds and Tips
7th March, 2008
Wigan v Arsenal
Sky Sports 1: 4:00pm
The big Premiership match this weekend sees Wigan host league leaders Arsenal at the JJB Stadium. Steve Bruce has pulled off some surprising victories since taking the helm at Wigan back in November. He has led the Latics to wins over Blackburn, Newcastle, Derby (twice) and West Ham but a win over the League leaders is another matter entirely. After all, Wigan have enjoyed no Premier League success over the Gunners in the past and the North Londoners will be buoyed by their heroics in Milan. Wenger’s young guns may have been misfiring of late but they still have lost just one Premier League match all season. They’ve gone 12 matches unbeaten since they surprisingly lost at Middlesbrough back in early December. They’ve also been boosted by the return to fitness of the Dutch maestro Robin Van Persie.
The Gunners should have too much confidence and firepower for the lowly Latics. Arsenal have been priced as favourites at 8/13 (VC Bet), meanwhile Wigan have been priced at 11/2 by Bet 365 to take all 3 points.
