Just 3 games from the UK today as Arsenal and Man Utd go head to head at Old Trafford in the battle for the 2nd-4th positions while Swansea welcome former champions Man City to the Liberty stadium with Europa League qualification still a possibility for the Welsh outfit. In scotland, Rangers face a crucial 2nd leg with Q.O.S in their battle to rejoin the Scottish Premiership and they will be confident of success with a 2.1 first leg advantage to protect. Here are today's predictions and best bets for the UK football today. EPL 14:30 Swansea vs Manchester City - Prediction 1.2- Best Bet - BTTS @ 8/13, BTTS and over 2.5 goals @20/21, Sergio Aguero to score anytime @8/11 I fancy an open and entertaining fixture here with both sides in good form and looking for points to improve their respective league positions. Swansea could still sneak in the Europa League backdoor while City are still trying to finish 2nd to avoid the Champions League qualifiers and both sides should be motivated for the first of our Super Sunday double header. City won last season's fixture 3.2 at the Liberty stadium and something similar wouldn't surprise me and both sides can score here @4/6. Only once have City failed to score on the road (in a game I backed them to score) at Burnley and in current form, Sergio Aguero will be tough to stop but Swansea cannot be discounted and I expect them to score here at least. City might just edge it but I won't bank on it and I prefer the goals markets plus Aguero to score anytime. 17:00 Manchester United vs Arsenal - Prediction 1.1- Best Bet - Draw @12/5 Arsenal are clearly the side in form and they will be confident of getting something from today's trip to Old Trafford against a United side that have slipped in recent weeks. I expect a closely fought and low scoring encounter that Arsenal won't lose but won't necessarily win. at 12/5, the draw looks to have a good chance with Arsenal rarely winning at OT but with their form that bit better, I expect a close match and a potential final score of 1.1. BTTS is possible but it's not a banker in this fixture with 7 of the last 12 meetings between the 2 sides seeing both sides scoring and while it ought to happen here, I am looking to Italy for my goals bets today. Scottish Premiership Play-off Quarter Final 15.30 - Rangers v Q.O.S - Prediction 2.1- Best Bet - No bet This isn't the kind of match Rangers fans have ever endured before and while they have the advantage from the first leg, Queens cannot be underestimated despite being 8/1 to qualify. Rangers, as we know, have struggled this season against today's opponents, losing twice and drawing at Ibrox and the first goal here will be crucial. I expect progression for Stuart McCall's men but at 4/9 to win on the day, I'm giving them a miss. Bo's Best Bets Swansea v Man City - BTTS @ 8/13, BTTS and over 2.5 goals @20/21, Sergio Aguero to score anytime @8/11 Man Utd v Arsenal - draw @12/5 Bo's Bonkers Bet Swansea 2 v 3 Man City @28/1 Comments are closed.
