Arsenal vs Dinamo Zagreb Betting tips

Arsenal, beaten finalists in last season's Champions League, look sure to secure a safe passages through to the group stages of this year's tournament when they play Dinamo Zagreb in this second leg qualifier at the Emirates Stadium tonight. The Gunners were thoroughly imperious in the first leg in the Ukraine, brushing their rivals aside with three second-half goals, two of which were scored by the brilliant young Spaniard, Cesc Fabregas. Unsurprisingly, the most generous odds you'll find about the home side in the match result market of this fixture is 1/5, while the draw is a top-priced 11/2 with bet365 and the away team are offered at a best-priced 14/1 with bet365. As one might suspect, striker Thierry Henry heads the first goalscorer betting at 11/4, a price offered by three firms, while bet365 go a standout price of 11/1 about midfield maestro Fabregas repeating his feat from the first leg, and netting first. Henry was the leading scorer for Arsene Wenger's men in this competition last term, and is priced at 8/1 with Skybet to be the competition's top overall scorer in 2007/2007. The favourite in this market is Chelsea new boy Andriy Shevchenko, who is a 7/1 chance. However, captain Henry looks set to start on the bench - the Frenchman has struggled to reach peak fitness following his World Cup exploits. Although Wenger has cited that he will not rush Theo Walcott, the youngster could play some part in this tie following his impressive cameo during Arsenal's 1-1 draw with Aston Villa on Saturday. Walcott is 13/2 with Skybet in the first goalscorer market and is 15/8 with the same firm to hit the back of the net at during 90 minutes. With the ongoing uncertainty surrounding Ashley Cole's future, Wenger has omitted the left back from the squad for tonight's match, while Jens Lehmann will be absent due to a knee problem. New signing Tomas Rosicky and winger Jose Antonio Reyes are both out with groin injuries. In the outright betting as to who will win this season's Champions League, Arsenal are available at 16/1 with a quartet of major firms. Liverpool are the same price with Coral, Skybet and Stan James, but fellow Premiership sides, Chelsea and Man Utd are shorter, at 9/2 (Coral) and 14s (Bet Direct and Blue Square) respectively.
