My references are silent, but Eijiro has: ■勝ち目があるようにする : set the odds in one's favor
■新聞記事にもあるように : as the news stories point out
■批評にあるように〔人の〕 : as someone says
■有名なことわざにあるように : as a well known proverb says
■話にあるように : as described in a story
How about:
あるように；ある様に says; describes; sets; points out; as in; as though; |
