Hosts Manchester City are odds-on favorites against Burnley this Saturday:  The pundits expect them to win easily, but do the heavens agree?   

Mars (ruler of the 10^th house; the house of victory for the favourites), is closely conjunct the 10^th house cusp:  This testimony confirms that Manchester City will prove formidable opponents but does not, by itself, guarantee victory.   

The Moon applies to square Venus, ruler of the 4^th house (the house of victory for the underdogs).  This is a stronger testimony in favour of Burnley.   

Although beyond the 5-degree orb considered most effective in 90-minute football matches, the Moon’s sextile to Mercury (ruler of the 7^th house; for Burnley) is also worthy of note.   

The result of this game is by no means a foregone conclusion:  Manchester City will be on excellent form, but Burnley may be more of a match than they anticipate.  Expect goals for both sides, with Burnley’s chances to improve greatly if the match strays into extra time.

Currently placed 2^nd in the Premier League table to Manchester City’s 8^th place, Arsenal are the favourites to win and are represented by Saturn, (lord of the 1^st house) and Mars, (lord of the 10^th house, the house of victory for the favourites).   

In contest charts, the Moon describes the flow of events.  This role takes priority over her rulership of any of the houses.  As the Moon rules the 7^th house in this chart, Mercury, her dispositor, is substituted as main significator for Arsenal’s opponents, Manchester City.  Venus, ruler of the 4^th house (the house of victory for the underdogs) is City’s co-significator.   

The Part of Fortune is closely conjunct the cusp of the 1^st house: This aspect always occurs around the time of the new Moon, so does not have a bearing on the result.   

More significantly, the Moon applies to oppose to Saturn (lord 1).   This is a strong aspect which points to a clear advantage for favourites, Arsenal.   

Mercury, the substitute main significator for underdogs Manchester City, applies to sextile the antiscion of the Part of Fortune (at 10 Sagittarius 50).  This is helpful for City, but a far less reliable testimony than the Moon/Saturn opposition.   

Overall, this chart favours the favourites, Arsenal.

Manchester City are odds-on favourites: They are signified by Saturn (lord of the 1^st house) and Mars (lord of the 10^th house, the house of victory for the favourites).   

The Moon, ruler of the 7^th house, already has a role describing the events of the match.  Her dispositor, Mercury, steps in as substitute significator for rivals Manchester United. They are also represented by Venus (lord of the 4^th house, the house of victory for the underdogs).  

All the testimonies in this chart favour Manchester City:  The Moon applies first to trine Mars, and then moves on to square Saturn, both highly positive testimonies for City.   

If that were not enough for United to contend with, their main significator (Mercury) is combust; a powerful affliction.   

Overall, the pundits and the heavens agree:  The testimonies in this chart incline strongly to a win for Manchester City.
