CSKA Moscow vs Arsenal Prediction & Betting Tips - Europa League
by Steve Ashfield | in Europa League Predictions
CSKA Moscow have it all to do in this Europa League quarter-final second leg game. The first half of the first leg at the Emirates saw them concede four goals and they did well to end the game 4-1 down as it could have been a lot more. Now they need to score at least three times in 90 minutes to stand any chance of reaching the last four and it'll be even harder of course if the Gunners are on target again. CSKA lost their last home game in this competition losing 1-0 to Lyon and when in the Champions League earlier this season, they lost 4-1 to Manchester United and 2-0 to Basel so home advantage isn't a strong point for them in European competition. Five home games in the Europa League and Champions League this season have seen CSK score four and concede seven so Arsenal shouldn't be too worried about Moscow producing a great comeback.
The Gunners had been having a miserable time for the first couple of months of 2018 but they have turned the situation around with six straight wins scoring at least twice in each game. They haven't suddenly become world beaters though as the standard of opposition, particularly in the Premier League hasn't been great. Wins do breed confidence though and with Danny Welbeck in good form they have every chance of winning this game and that's the tip especially with Moscow having to come forward looking for goals and leaving gaps at the back.

Our CSKA Moscow vs Arsenal Prediction
Arsenal are in top form at present, though how they'd get on against the very best sides remains to be seen. They have a 4-1 lead from the first leg and scoring plenty of goals at present and that bodes well for this game. CSKA do not have a good home record in European competition with three defeats this season. CSKA have to attack and that'll play into the hands of Arsenal who can get the win here.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
