Arsenal to beat Stoke 4/11:
Short odds for this one but surely a banker. Arsenal go from strength to strength and have now won six matches in a row in all competitions. One more on Sunday will put them top of the league and they have been in scintillating form. They came past a difficult task against Marseille in the Champions League in mid-week and look very good. Arsenal’s only defeat so far this season was at home against Villa on the opening day but since then have beaten both Fenerbache and Spurs relatively easily at home. Stoke have had a good start to this season and currently sit ninth. On the road they have lost one and won one so far but against the likes of Ozil and Cazorla, they should be beaten easily.
Tottenham to beat Cardiff 19/20:
Off to South Wales for our next math where a Spurs side packed with quality should prevail. Spurs’ season has got off to a great start with 6 wins in 8 matches in all competitions and just one defeat. League form has been equally impressive with three wins in four and their only defeat coming against Arsenal. On the road they have won one and lost one in the league but their season is really gaining momentum and Cardiff face them at a dreadful time. Cardiff haven’t made a bad start to life in the top flight with two draws a win and a defeat. The win came all the way back on the opening day and they are unbeaten at home. However they have drawn their last two matches against opposition much weaker than Spurs and Soldado and co should have too much for them.
Inter to beat Sassuolo 4/5:
Next up is Serie A’s early kick off (11:30GMT so get them alarms set!) and Inter Milan. Inter currently sit 3rd in the league after two wins and a draw. They’ve only dropped points against Juventus so far this season and look a good shout. Their only other away game so far was against Catania who they dismissed easily 3-0. Sassuolo haven’t adapted well to top flight football and have lost all three of their matches to date. Scoring just one goal and conceding eight, they haven’t found it easy. Inter should be far too strong here and put a good win on the board.
Nice to beat Valenciennes 4/5:
To France now and Nice who are currently 8th in the French league. They have lost just once this season and that was all the way back on the opening day. At home they have a win and a draw under their belt and really aren’t a bad side. Valenciennes are having a torrid time and sit 19th at present. Five games in to the new season they have now lost four in a row and have just three points. Four defeats on the spin have seen them score just one goal and they seem to be in a lot of danger. They have also lost both of their matches on the road this season and will have a long afternoon v Nice.
Porto to beat Estoril 4/9:
Finally to an evening kick off in Portugal. Porto have started the season in a similar vein to the way they played last year and are top with four wins in four. They have conceded just one goal in the process and could run away with it again. Estoril haven’t made a bad start to the season either and currently sit fourth but haven’t won in their last two now. They lost last time out to Braga and Porto are by far the best team in this league and should beat Estoril.
