English Premier League Winner Betting Update PT 1

After another weekend where it all went according to plan for a few of the Premier League’s quality sides, we’ve had the bookmakers reshuffle the betting markets as we get closer to the next round of fixtures this weekend. Manchester City were able to record another excellent victory over Liverpool - who will certainly be buoyed by their recent signing of enigmatic Italian striker Mario Balotelli - who was in the stands watching at his old stomping grounds at the Etihad Stadium as Liverpool were undone 3-1.

Chelsea were able to record another workmanlike victory and they are currently trading as the outright favourites to win the English Premier League title by just the shortest of margins right now. 

At this point, punters will find Chelsea available at a 2.30 price tag while Manchester City can be backed at a 2.37 margin - nearly as close to a toss-up as you can really get. You’ll see that Arsenal have been lengthened out to 8.0 and they look to be in their perennial position of challenging for a Champions League place that they will likely retain but will probably come up short in their race for the English Premier League title itself. 

Manchester United were undone by Sunderland 1-1 and remain winless this season. That will certainly come as a shock to their fans but the simple fact remains that Louis Van Gaal’s side did not perform to expectations and many players still look lost in the Dutchman’s 3-5-2 formation. 

Much will be made of Ashley Young receiving a yellow card for diving in what looked to be a pretty clear penalty but it appears as though its another instance of his reputation proceeding him and the referee did not hesitate to book him. With the arrival of Angel Di Maria looking increasingly likely by the day, United fans will be wondering whether reinforcements will be arriving in midfield or defense, despite the recent acquisition of Marcos Rojo.
