FENERBAHCE – ARSENAL PREDICTIONS AND BETTING TIPS

Fenerbahce are in the tournament for now but there could be major problems for the Turks who could face eviction win or lose anyway if CAS decide a UEFA ban was correct under match fixing allegations. In the league last year Fenerbahce finished 2^nd to Galatasaray but in truth were quite far from the level that Gala reached in the league and in Europe. This year they started well racing into a 2-0 lead away at Konyaspor. With just 12 minutes left though they seemed to fall apart and conceded three goals to give up all the points. The side was quite strong all round but have made some excellent additions over the Summer. In comes defenders Michel Kadlec and Bruno Alves. Midfielders Samuel Holman and Alper Potuk and striker Emmanual Eminike. For an outlay of €30 million they have really stregnenthed all areas with international class players. Fenerbache will field their strongest team, only goalie Erten Ersu is out.

Arsenal began the season in typical Arsenal fashion with loss and a mass of revolting fans. Arsene Wenger inability to spend cash has caused outrage on the terraces and with the ineffectual performances of his charges at home to an Aston Villa side not rated in the top echelons of English football. Huge problems for Arsenal with defender Nacho Monreal and Thomas Vermaelen out, in addition to Midfielders Mikel Arteta, Abou Diaby and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain too.

FENERBAHCE - ARSENAL: RUN OF PLAY

The sides have met only twice in recent years in this competition. Arsenal battered Fenerbahce 5-2 in Turkey in a very dominant display, the return in London was a dour affair and ended up 0-0.

FENERBAHCE - ARSENAL PREDICTIONS AND BETTING TIPS: TOTAL GOALS

This game looks one for goals for sure, both sides have opened up the league with defeats, Arsenal 3-1 at home and Fener 3-2 away. Two teams who they were expected to easily defeat put three past them both so defences are unsure all round. With key men injured for Arsenal they look weakend but are still fully capable of scoring. I take Over 2.5 here at 1.85 with Bet365.

FENERBAHCE - ARSENAL PREDICTIONS AND BETTING TIPS: ASIAN HANDICAP

Big move for Fenerbahce here on the back of the poor Arsenal performance and the injuries for The Gunners. Arsenal though are fully capable of getting a result here and I side with them. With the move on the home side we get Arsenal 0 at a large 1.95 with bet365.
