English Premier League Latest Betting Update PT 1
- By A.J. Ryder on April 21, 2021 15:15 GMTThere is still a lot of action still to unfold in the English Premier League over the remaining six fixtures for each side. There are many bookmakers who feel as though the title has already been won by Manchester City as they remain a full eight points ahead of crosstown rivals Manchester United - who look to be finishing up the season well and are currently in the midst of a five-match win streak.

With United looking to have sown up second place or at least a top four finish, there is a hot competition emerging for sides looking to grab those remaining two Champions League positions awarded for third and fourth place.
Punters will find Leicester City, West Ham United, Chelsea and Liverpool locked in a tight dogfight for those spots with both Spurs and Everton not entirely out of the picture either - though those clubs do need the others ahead of them to drop points over the remainder of the season.
There’s a lot to like about Leicester City’s chances of a top four finish and that’s likely why manager Brendan Rodgers has already come out and ruled himself off a potential move to Spurs after they parted company with Jose Mourinho yesterday Rodgers had been the second choice candidate for a move to White Hart Lane but his work with the Foxes remains an achievement that could be rewarded with another run at the top rung of European club football.
The bookmakers have the Midlands club priced at odds-on for a top four finish and you’ll find them trading as short as 4/9.
Liverpool are getting an edge from the bookmakers to secure a top four position despite sitting in sixth place right now. You’ll find them trading at a best price of 4/6 with several top bookmakers. They will need to pick up all three points in their crunch fixture with Manchester United on May 1st in order to secure this and they have a tougher run of fixtures remaining than several other sides.
