Forest On Fire
Arsenal really could do without this match or a run in the League Cup. Forest have enough about them, even with some personnel changes, to take advantage and claim the scalp again.
The Carabao Cup is typically a rich source of upsets and the Emirates could be a prime venue on Tuesday night. Nottingham Forest are a best price 13/2 with BetVictor to win the tie in 90 minutes.
The Championship outfit are 9 matches unbeaten in all competitions and knocked Arsenal out of the FA Cup when they weren’t as good as they are now. Yes they may make changes, but that didn’t stop them beating Derby 3-0 in the last round and besides a few of the first team will surely be given a run-out at such a prestigious venue.
That won’t be the case with Unai Emery I wouldn’t think. Just two days after the Gunners fought back against Villa with 10 men, I can’t see a superstar getting anywhere near the pitch. Arsenal also have Europa League football to juggle so this competition is way down the pecking order.
That makes this tie up for grabs and the prices don’t reflect that sufficiently.
