Mixed Night For Arsenal And Chelsea

New managers at Chelsea and Arsenal have not really had the desired effect and both clubs have dropped out of the Champions League places. However, they do have another route into the competition and that is by winning the Europa League. In the halcyon days under Jose Mourinho and Arsene Wenger playing in the poor relation to the Champions League would be unthinkable but needs must. In fact the Europa League could buy both new bosses some time and the combined price for CHELSEA OR ARSENAL to win the competition is about 3/1 with Coral. 

Arsenal are away to Bate Borisiv for a match the manager should take seriously. They are not involved in the FA Cup at the weekend so the Europa League is the only chance of a trophy. Unai Emery won three Europa Leagues with Sevilla and is expected to field the first string today. Arsenal won a corresponding match 4-2 away from home in 2017. Bate have not competitively since December and ARSENAL have the form to beat their hosts by at least a goal at 5/4 with Ladbrokes. 

Chelsea have lost their last four away matches without scoring a goal and a similar outcome against Malmo could see the end of Mourizio Sarri. The hosts have not been beaten at home in 18 matches but most of those fixtures were in the Swedish League. However, they have lost just 2 of 14 fixtures in Europe in Sweden.  Chelsea meet Manchester United in the FA Cup on Monday which could be seen as a priority. MALMO can inflict a damaging defeat on the manager at 7/1 with Coral. 

Thankfully equine flu is now just a bad memory and some trainers who had been in lockdown are now allowed to have runners. Kelso stages two decent races (2.25 and 3.00) but there are only four and two runners in these contests which have odds-on favourites. Clonmel features a Grade 3 novice hurdle over three miles at 2.40 and on ratings MOSKOVITE is the bet at 11/2 with Ladbrokes.

Arsenal Can Continue The Run Of Wins 

Arsenal lost their first two league matches but have since put together a run of 10 wins in all competitions. Some of the football in the home win against Leicester on Monday was stunning and now they take that form into a match at Sporting Lisbon in the Europa League. In the halcyon days Arsene Wenger would have stuck his nose up about playing on Thursdays but new manager has a great pedigree in the competition and ARSENAL are 7/1 with bet365 to win the Europa League.  

Unai Emery was the manager of Seville when they won three Europa Leagues in as many years. He has won over the Arsenal fans with a breed of winning and exciting football. His players are growing in confidence and that process can continue in Portugal tonight. Sporting have lost their last three matches against opponents from England and Emery is unlikely to play the second string as he values the Europa League. ARSENAL are the team to back at 21/20 with Ladbrokes. 

Celtic and Rangers are in Europa League action tonight and both Glasgow teams could struggle to win. Chelsea will be too good for BATE Borisov at Stamford Bridge in the same competition. They have failed to win just one of their last eight Europa League fixtures and can continue that run against the Belarus champions. BATE lost 6-0 to Arsenal on their last visit to London and even though the win might not be so convincing CHELSEA -2 at 5/4 with Betfair is the recommendation. 

Carlisle is not the most glamorous of tracks but the setting is as good as any in the country. Its an urban course in woodlands but the quality of the racing rarely matches the scenery. The sport today is nothing special but only one of the seven races has not attracted the important eight runners for each-way betting. There is a competitive handicap chase over three miles and two furlongs at 3.40 with 11 horses in the field. BALLYMALIN has the form to win the race at 5/2 with Coral.
