Decent odds on an away win.
I know it would be a shocker if we did win. Under Pulis you could have given me 100/1 and I wouldn't have bothered. I think it will be a very different game. And given we have a few points in the bag already Hughes will go for it.
Most people are writing us off but I don't think Wenger will expect as to have a go at them. We generally are happy to lose 2-0. I think we are a decent bet at that price. If we can score first then we have a chance.
Double it up with Everton to win at West Ham - 23/1 double. West Ham are looking poor and I can't see Everton losing.

Don't think i'd be sticking any money on it but there has to be a certain amount of confidence going into the game, we've just got to stick those bloody chances away and we surely will create some with the way we are playing, oh and keep that ozil fella quiet  |

Why on earth would you feel the need to double up on an 8-1 shot? You'd be hopping mad if Stoke somehow won and then Everton let you down. (West Ham/Everton is very difficult to call IMO- I think Big Sam will batten down the hatches and grind a few draws out until he gets Carroll fit. Everton draw a lot away from home too.) Unfortunately, Stoke are very unlikely to win away at a top 6 club. You can count on one hand the number of home games that a top 6 team loses to an also-ran side over the course of a season. There will always be one or two, but from a betting perspective it's like looking for a needle in a haystack- and I'd want bigger than 8/1 on it. I really, really hope you strike lucky on it though.  Edit: Just looked it up. Out of 13 games last season: Man Utd & Everton 0 defeats; Arsenal, Man City, Chelsea 1 defeat, Spurs & Liverpool 2 defeats. Total of 91 games. 7 defeats in total to 84. Price should really be about 12/1. The Man City defeat was the last game of the season as well, and there was nothing at stake. As always, you should make your own judgements with betting, so if you fancy that 23/1 double, then I don't want to be responsible for talking you out of it. |

If we can win at Arsenal, it'll only be our 2nd, top 6 scalp away from home, since we returned to the top league.
Our record against the top 6 over 5 seasons is; Won 1, Drawn 4, lost 25. On that basis 8/1 is poor value.
The draw however @ 4/1 is a far better looking option.

im putting my money on Shawcross to score a 90th minute winner, deflecting off Ramsey's leg which has already been detached from the rest of his body

I think there is a decent chance of getting something from the game. Stoke are playing a passing game but still retaining the Pulis organisation, which is a credit to Hughes.
Arsenal showed against Villa they are vulnerable to the quick counter attack, but Stoke must ensure they don't let Arsenal get the space for their passing game too flourish.

We are 9/1 to beat Arsenal on the Betfred bonus coupon. Got to be worth a small punt... I have 23/1 double on Everton away win (this happened) and Stoke away win - so I have 23/1 x £5. Already won £45 today on Everton and Southampton and Vale treble! |

We're 9/1 with the owners which I find tempting but not tempting enough to part with any hard earned. The draw at four and a quarter to one seems even more generous. A score to get back a ton and five notes? I might do that in the morning.
