ARSENAL VS CELTIC LIVE BETTING TIPS

We're expecting plenty of excitement as Arsene Wenger's men still have a job to do at the Emirates Stadium as they face off against Celtic in the 2nd leg of their Champions League qualifier. 888sports has dropped Arsenal slightly in price just ahead of the match and they now sit a 4/11 instead of the 1/3 they were at previously. The team sheet shave been revealed and we have Robin van Persie and Andrey Arshavin both starting on the bench. Here are the full team-sheets. Arsenal: Almunia, Sagna, Gallas, Vermaelen, Clichy, Eboue, Song Billong, Denilson, Diaby, Eduardo, Bendtner.Subs: Mannone, van Persie, Ramsey, Silvestre, Wilshere, Arshavin, Traore.Celtic: Boruc, Hinkel, Caldwell, Loovens, Daniel Fox, Maloney, Donati, Scott Brown, McGeady, McDonald, Fortune.Subs: Zaluska, Naylor, Samaras, Flood, McCourt, Killen, O'Dea.We've seen Eduardo's in-play price to score set at 10/11 while Nicklas Bendtner is at around 6/4 to score anytime. I am tempted to have a punt on William Gallas at 6/1. Scott McDonald is at 10/3 for Celtic while Marc Antoine Fortune sits at 7/2 alongside Georgios Samaras. My live betting strategy for this match would be to immediately bet on a Celtic victory and then hedge the Arsenal win from there on in. I think that the opening 20 minutes will really determine which direction this match winds up going into. If Celtic can put pressure on Arsenal's defence and notch an early strike, it will dramatically alter the complexion of the tie. Celtic remain 20/1 to go through and while the odds are long, it is certainly not an impossibility. Failure to qualify for the Champions League Group Stage would be an unmitigated disaster for Arsenal.
