Match Mania Boosted Odds BIG Game Previews - 23rd November 2024
betPawa is offering exclusive boosted odds for the biggest football matches over the weekend. We want to give you an advantage with previews for three scintillating clashes across Europe. The international break is over and first up sees Juventus head to the San Siro to face AC Milan, holding a 6-point lead over the Rossoneri. We turn our attention to the Premier League as Manchester City welcomes Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal host Nottingham Forest.
AC Milan v Juventus
The headline Serie A clash pits 2 teams against each other that have won 55 league titles between them.
The Old Lady heads to the San Siro as the only undefeated team in the league. Juventus’ Achilles heel has been drawing too many games, they have 6 wins and 6 stalemates from 12 matches.
Thiago Motta’s men boast the best defensive record in the league and have only conceded 7 goals.
From a goalscoring point of view, American Christian Pulisic has been in good form for AC Milan, bagging 2 goals in recent matches. Juventus has relied on Timothy Weah for goals with the winger scoring 3 goals in as many games.
However, this fixture hasn’t produced a ton of goals in recent years. There have only been 4 goals in the last 5 clashes between the teams in Serie A. These matches are usually a cagey affair, so don’t expect a ton of goals.
Manchester City v Tottenham
Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City are on an unprecedented 4-game losing streak in all competitions. The match that kicked off the barren run was a 2-1 loss to this weekend’s opponents in the League Cup over a fortnight ago.
Before City’s loss against Bournemouth on November 2, Guardiola’s team went on a 32-match unbeaten run in the Premier League.
Man City can ill afford to lose more points this weekend as league leaders Liverpool are already 5 points ahead of last season’s champions.
Ange Postecoglou’s troops have struggled to find consistency this season. They’ve suffered 3 losses in the last 5 Premier League matches. The 2 wins during that period were both 4-1 wins over Aston Villa and West Ham respectively.
In team news, City’s Jack Grealish, Ruben Dias, and John Stones are doubtful for the clash, while Rodri and Oscar Bobb remain sidelined.
The Londoners will be without Richarlison, Micky van de Ven and Wilson Odobert. Former Chelsea striker Timo Werner is doubtful with a groin strain.
In the head-to-head, both teams have 2 wins apiece with 1 draw in all competitions.
Arsenal v Nottingham Forest
The Gunners and Forest meet at the Emirates, occupying 4th and 5th place in the league table.
Nuno Espirito Santo has done an outstanding job at the City Ground and faces a stuttering Mikel Arteta team. The London side have won once in the Premier League in the last 5 matches.
Arsenal will be overjoyed to welcome back playmaker and captain Martin Odegaard from injury. The Norwegian could be the key to unlocking the Forest defence who have only conceded 10 goals in the league.
The visitors haven’t lost on the road this season in the league and the Gunners are unbeaten at home. Arsenal will rely heavily on the Emirates crowd particularly as they’ll be without Ben White and talisman Leandro Trossard.
Forest striker Chris Wood has banged in 8 goals so far this season, while Arsenal’s top scorer Kai Havertz only has 4 league goals.
Forest has only beaten Arsenal once in their last 4 Premier League encounters. It’s shaping up to be an end-to-end encounter and Arsenal will want to get their campaign back on track with a home win.
