    Surely this is nothing but amazing value?

    I realise that Fulham are going to send out a weakened team but they'll still retain their shape and they cou8dl easily score if they get a corner or two. Also Arsenal have been playing woeful stuff lately, they haven't been at the races mentally at all and they won't just be able to pick it up with all the injuries they have.

    Some sites are offering a straight 20-1 for Spurs to finish third. If you can't find that, then a double on Spurs/Fulham should give about the same price.

    Think i'm going to go with a Spurs/Fulham and something from the Chelsea game if there's value in it as a treble since i can't find straight odds for Spurs to finish third.

    Honestly cant see Fulham getting anything out of this match. They are most likely going to play a very weak side come Sunday. Wouldnt surprise me if they threw out a few youth team players for the match. Its a match were the club or the fans couldnt really get a f**k about. Its all about Wednesday for Fulham. Plus Arsenal's last home game of the season will want to go out on a high and knowing if they lose they could finish in fourth place behind there great rivals. And then have to qualify for the group stages of the Champions League next season. Cant see any value in the 20/1 on offer !

    Arsenal couldn't have an easier match, I see absolutely no reason why they should lose this match. Then again it is good value, you're essentially getting 20/1 on Fulham away to Arsenal as Spurs beating Burnley should be a forgone conclusion. Still can't see it happening though.

    It's 20/1 for a reason.
    Nuff said.

    Should be 100/1 , Fulham have no chance of winning and don't be surprised if Spurs are turned over by Burnley, I am sure they have been out enjoying their 4th place!

    Fair points.

    However, the Fulham players taking to the pitch will give a sh1t about the game and that's the most important thing.

    Arsenal have shown in recent weeks that without, Vermaelen, Song, Fabregas, Gallas, and a good keeper, they are essentially spineless - in both football and courage stakes. I realise that this is an important match but it's not that simple. They're looking to Diaby, Rosicky, Walcott to put in a decent performance and do the club justice - that hasn't happened yet this year and they've all been in matches when there's a hell of a lot more to play for than 4th/3rd.

    Van Persie could mess it up for me though.

    No chance in Fulham winning. Remember they tried to get this moved forward 24 hours. So they won't be risking anyone. Arsenal will go out with a bang. 4nil or so.
