Now they face the reverse fixture at the Emirates and all they really have to do is keep the Turkish side from grabbing a few early goals. With a hefty 3-0 margin to build off of, the Gunners really just need to notch a single solitary strike to put the tie to bed.
With three away goals giving Arsenal plenty of room to work with, and Fenerbahce not really being the most frightening team to play against in an away fixture you have to respect that Arsene Wenger remains a talented manager, particularly in Europe, no matter what you might think of his signings.
The bookmakers are so confident in the Gunners ability to progress against the Turkish side, you will find them priced at an ultra-slim 1/200 listing with several top bookmakers - meaning you would have to stake $200 to profit a single dollar.
To their credit, Fenerbahce can pay out at a 25/1 price tag to win the tie outright, though they are 17/2 to win the second match in 90 minutes play.
The only real way they can progress to the Champions League proper would be to run up a scoreline of at least 4-0 without conceding a goal. That’s going to be difficult but stranger things have happened and you do reckon that a portion of the “Wenger Out!” brigade that seemingly pops up every time the Frenchman doesn’t get a result he should may be willing to put their money where their mouth is an actually back the Turkish side to get the result over the London team.
