Arsenal’s recent slip-ups have let Manchester City back into the Premier League title race and the Gunners will now be hoping rivals Spurs can do them a favour today.

The Gunners opened up a seven-point lead again with a 4-0 win at Leeds yesterday so the pressure is on City to respond at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Thomas Frank’s side have already won at the Etihad this season but they’re in dismal league form now and have a squad ravaged by injuries.
Tottenham Hotspur vs Manchester City top betting tips
Both these teams head into the game off the back of morale-boosting wins in the Champions League and Tottenham’s victory in Frankfurt saw them finish fourth in the group stage.
But their European heroics stand in stark contrast to a domestic slump and Frank’s side are hovering too close to the Premier League drop zone for comfort.
The now enter a daunting run of fixtures and City look worthy favourites at a best 3/4 with Coral. That’s not a great price but combining the away win with a goal for Erling Haaland pays 6/5 at Bet365.
Pep Guardiola’s defence usually give the opposition a few sights of goal and there could be some value in backing Gianluigi Donnarumma for over 2.5 saves at evens with the same firm.
Aston Villa vs Brentford
Aston Villa remain level on points with City in the title race and will be looking to keep their push on track when Brentford come calling.
I thought Villa would rest a few big hitters for Thursday’s Europa League dead rubber with Salzburg and my 11/2 punt on the Austrians was looking good when they went 2-0 up.
But Unai Emery’s men scored three times in the second half to bust my coupon and keep the feelgood factor going at Villa Park.
The victory did come at a cost though with Ollie Watkins limping off and Villa are looking a bit light up front after selling Donyell Malen.
New boy Tammy Abraham could be thrown straight in for his debut and he’s 13/10 with Paddy Power to either score or assist.
Brentford have lost two in a row after a fine run of results and Villa are always strong at home. Even though they have some key players out, Emery’s side still look decent value at 23/20 with Betway for the win.
Hibernian vs Rangers
Rangers saw their eight-game winning streak come to an end with a defeat to Porto on Thursday and it will be fascinating to see how they respond away to Hibernian in the SPFL Premiership.
Easter Road is never an easy venue to visit but this could be a good time to face Hibs, who have lost their last two games to Dunfermline and Falkirk.
David Gray is also without star striker Kieron Bowie after his move to Verona so the Rangers win looks decent value at 6/5 with 888Sport.
This game is usually pretty spicy and we’ve seen four or more cards in the last five meetings.
For a long-odds punt, combining cards for stoppers Rocky Bushiri and Emmanuel Fernandez pays 636/100 at QuinnBet.

Gers defender Fernandez is always a big threat from set-pieces and he’s 13/8 with Bet365 to have an effort on target.
