October 19 – Sportingbet, the leading online sports betting site, still has
Manchester United as its favourites to the English Premier League.
Za.sportingbet.com is offering odds of 6/5 that United will take home the
title, despite the fact that the team dropped points on Saturday after a 1-1
draw at Anfield.
Bookmakers across the board believe that despite its poor weekend
performance, Manchester United has the players, the ability and the leadership
to move ahead and win the trophy.
However, according to Premier League odds at Sportingbet gambling
group, there are some serious contenders to the title in the form of United's
neighbours, Manchester City. This team carries odds of 2/1 at the ports
betting site that it will beat Manchester United and win the trophy for the
first time in history.
City is currently at the top of the English Premier League table after
beating Villa 4-1 over the weekend. Manchester City needs to keep up this pace
if it wants to continue being a serious contender against United, and it
certainly has proven that its (expensive) players have the capability to do so.
Chelsea may be the only club that offers any form of threat to the two big
Manchester super teams, and carries odds of 14/5 to win the Premier League at
Sportingbet.com.
Chelsea started off the season with poor odds but has fought hard to bring
itself back into the race, suffering its only setback at Old Trafford.
Juan Mata, Daniel Stuttridge and Raul Merieles are names to look out for this
season.
