Wednesday Specials…relegation Battle, Wenger And Senegalese Hotshots

Three of the sides involved in the Premier League relegation battle are involved on Wednesday’s Premier League fixtures and William Hill are betting on how many points Bolton, Blackburn and QPR get between them. Hills offer 66/1 that all three sides win and 7/1 that all three lose. Hills also offer 2/7 that QPR are the highest placed out of the three Premier League teams following Wednesday’s fixtures.

Arsenal take on Bolton followed swiftly by a match against fellow strugglers Blackburn, who beat them earlier in the campaign, and two victories could see them back in the race for a top four place, Blackburn and William Hill offer 11/10 that they take maximum points from the two games. Two defeats, however and Arsene Wenger could be under intense pressure. Hills go 33/1 that they are beaten twice. Arsene Wenger is 11/10 to have left Arsenal by the first game of next season and 11/4 to be the boss of Real Madrid come the first game of next season.

“These two Arsenal matches could defining in more ways than one and two victories for the Gunners could have a massive impact at both ends of the table,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Hills make Robin van Persie 5/4 to outscore the rest of the Arsenal team against Bolton.

Newcastle’s two Senegalese strikers could be back from International duty to play against Blackburn and William Hill go 11/4 that Demba Ba scores more than new boy, Papiss Cisse in the match (10/3 vice versa and 4/7 for the tie).

City Slip Could Ultimately Cost Mancini His Job…ferdinand Vs. Terry Round Two…leeds Latest

Manchester City’s defeat to Everton has seen their lead at the top of the table wiped out and Roberto Mancini could find his job in danger if Manchester City fail to lift the trophy this season. William Hill make the City boss 11/4 to have left his position by the start of next season. Jose Mourinho could well be the replacement at the Etihad as he is the 13/8 favourite to be the next City manager.

Sir Alex Ferguson could also be on his way at the end of the season and Hills make him 11/4 to have left his position by the start of next season. Jose Mourinho is also the favourite to take over from Ferguson, with Hills making him 5/2 to be the next Red Devils manager.

“Jose Mourinho is up there as one of the best managers in the world and would be at the top of any elite club’s wish lists but it looks like Manchester will be his ultimate destination,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Manchester United take on Chelsea at the weekend and William Hill are offering 9/4 that Rio Ferdinand and John Terry do not shake hands (1/3 that they do). John Terry is 1/3 to captain England for their first match of Euro 2012, with Steven Gerrard the 4/1 second favourite and Rio Ferdinand 6/1.

Mccoist 7/2 Fav To Be Next Spl Boss To Go!

Ally McCoist was hamstrung in his attempts to sign a striker to replace the departed Nikica Jelavic and William Hill make the Rangers boss 7/2 favourite to be the fourth SPL boss to leave his job. Paulo Sergio is 5/1 with Jim McIntyre the 7/1 third favourite.

“If Rangers lose any more ground at the top of the SPL, Ally could be given the boot, but with his hands having been tied by the restrictions he is working under, he could decide to walk away of his own volition,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Fourth SPL Manager to leave: 7/2 Ally McCoist; 5/1 Paulo Sergio; 7/1 Jim McIntyre; 10/1 Peter Houston; 12/1 Pat Fenlon; 16/1 Craig Brown; 20/1 Terry Butcher; 25/1 Danny Lennon; 33/1 Kenny Shiels; 40/1 Neil Lennon; 40/1 Stuart McCall; 50/1 Steve Lomas; 13/8 No manager to leave

Capello 8/1 To Quit As Gerrard Favourite To Skipper England At Euros

Capello 8/1 to quit:
GERRARD FAVOURITE TO BE ENGLAND EURO SKIPPER BUT TERRY ODDS-ON TO PLAY

William Hill make Steven Gerrard 8/13 favourite to skipper England in their opening Euro ’12 finals match – and they offer 1/ 2 that John Terry will start that game, 6/4 that he will not. Hills are also offering 8/1 that Fabio Capello will stand down as England manager before the Euro finals begin, 1/20 that he does not.
‘The decision to strip Terry of the captaincy potentially raises a number of issues, including the questions of whether Terry will still be selected to play and whether Capello is happy with the decision, possibly taken regardless of his opinion’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

William Hill – TO START FIRST EURO ’12 MATCH AS ENGLAND SKIPPER:

Steven Gerrard 8/13
Frank Lampard 5/1
Rio Ferdinand 7/1
Scott Parker 8/1

William Hill Weekend Specials…12/1 For City And United Tied At The Top On Final Day

Things are very close at the top of the Premier League and William Hill are offering 5/6 that Manchester City sit atop the table come the end of this round of fixtures (the same price for United to be top on Sunday evening). Hills also go 12/1 that the two Manchester sides finish the season on the same amount of points.

It is not just tight at the top with at least five sides caught in the dogfight at the foot of the table and Hills think that the magic 40 point mark may not be necessary this season, offering 5/4 that the 17th placed side in the Premier League finishes with either 37, 38 or 39 points.
