    Carling Cup-Tuesday

    Tues Carling Cup, Burnley +333 (bet365) 1 Unit to beat Arsenal

    Arsenal played fantastic football in the last round utilizing their 'reserve' team and have said the reserves will play again, but playing Burnley on the road is an altogether different proposition. Temperatures are forecast to be below freezing, the sell-out crowd is guaranteed to be partizan and Burnley are going well in the Championship.

    At -120 there's no value in Arsenal but there is massive value in the +333 offered by Bet365 on a Burnley win and I'd suggest a small stakes play on the home team.

    +4.8 units posted soccer plays.

    NICE! I had this same idea. But many doubts persist. The Arsenal youth may even be better than the senior squad themselves, dismantling teams with ease. The X factor here is Burnley being at home, and how motivated they'll be. If Carling Arsenal can dominate Wigan with ease, what would they do to Burnley?


    Stoke is a solid play, even at -1/2,1 here. The starters are in and Stoke are crazy good at home.

    Burnley will be motivated simply because the game is sold out and their fans are pretty vocal. I'm not saying Burnley will definetly win but I am saying they're a false price, I make Burnely a +225 chance.
