English Premier League Top 4 Finish Betting PT 1

Now that it appears as though Manchester CIty have officially sewn up the title in the eyes of many bookmakers and football observers alike - they are trading at 1/50 for the win for a reason - the big questions are starting to turn to several other options on how the league is going to pan out long-term.

As we get closer to May, the Champions League spots are always going to be a talking point and there are three teams that are heavily favoured to slip into the next stage of the competition - however there are also a few on the periphery who could be able to put something together.

Manchester United are just 12 points behind Manchester City but are their closest competitors at the moment. You’ll find Jose Mourinho’s men trading at a price of about 1/12 for the top four finish and that’s probably not a particularly exciting price for many - though it does demonstrate just how much confidence people have in the Red Devils ability to pull off a tremendous run.

There is every chance that Manchester United could push Manchester City all the way - particularly if City suffer an injury or two to a key player. Or they could get bogged down in a Champions League campaign - they are the genuine favourites to win this year’s iteration of the Champions League for a reason after all.

Now that Manchester United have signed Alexis Sanchez and appear to have a much more dynamic forward in their line-up, you can expect that United will have a bit more verve going forward for the remainder of the season in all competitions and you can bank on their ability to get results against virtually anybody.
