28.9. - Matchday Saturday

Aston Villa - Manchester City
Aston Villa had bad performance at home against Tottenham in Capital One Cup this week. Benteke is out for next few weeks and Villa might struggle to score against Manchester City as they did against Tottenham.

Manchester City are in great form since their Champions League away win. They convincingly won derby against Manchester United last weekend and represents one of the main candidates for Premier League trophy this season. Pellegrini rested few players in their last Capital One Cup game against Wigan, which are expected to be fully fit today. He knows that his team will need to take advantage and get results against middle and bottom table teams to reach their main goal.

Away win (1.55 Bet365) 8/10


Manchester United - WBA
Manchester United won derby against Liverpool in Capital One Cup and will have to bounce back in the PL after big lose against Manchester City last weekend. Robin Van Persie is back and will be involved against West Brom.

West Brom had negative result at home against Arsenal in Capital One Cup this week. Arsenal played mostly with youngsters and they succeeded after penalties. West Brom players should be a little bit tired after long midweek game.

Man U don't give us much value at 1.30, but I do believe its priced right and this should be comfortable home win.



Swansea - Arsenal
Arsenal is another title contender in great form lately. Arsene Wenger rested all key players in midweek game against WBA as we mentioned above. We were able to see young players like Gnabry, Olsson, Hayden, Akomp, Esfield etc. Arsenal won last seven away games and have big ambitions to rule the top of the PL. We expect Ozil and co. will pick up points at Liberty Stadium.

Swansea were never an easy hosts and they have ability to score today based on their current form. They lost thier last game against Birmingham in Capital One Cup, but it would be hard to fight on several fronts for their short bench. You might consider BTS, both teams are playing passing and attacking football.
