United 4/9 To Maintain Five Point Gap At Top Of Table

The title race could take yet another twist on Sunday with both Manchester sides in action. William Hill are offering 14/1 that Manchester United win and Manchester City lose, leaving the Reds eight points ahead before their game next weekend. Hills also offer 10/1 that the opposite happens and Manchester City close the gap to just two points. The favourite is that United retain their five point gap (at 4/9) with United having the chance to win the Premier League at the home of their bitter rivals. Hills are go 5/2 that they do just that (2/7 they do not).

“Manchester United would surely love the opportunity to win the title at the Etihad, but in the same vein, City will be determined not to let that happen and the derby next week could hinge on the two games on Sunday,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Alex Ferguson talked about how he expects that Wayne Rooney will beat Bobby Charlton’s Manchester United goalscoring record and William Hill go 2/1 that he just that during his career (4/11 that doesn’t).

How many points will Manchester United be clear after this week’s round of Premier League fixtures: 10/1 two; 5/1 three; 50/1 four; 4/9 five; 50/1 six; 7/1 seven; 14/1 eight

Manchester United to win the League at Manchester City: 5/2 yes; 2/7 no

Wayne Rooney to beat Bobby Charlton’s Manchester United goalscoring record: 2/1 yes; 4/11 no

ROONEY 7/4 TO TOP SCORE FOR ENGLAND IN EURO 2012 FINALS – AND 9/2 TO BEAT BOBBY’S ALL TIME SCORING RECORD

WILLIAM HILL have opened a book on who will top score in the EURO 2012 Finals for England – assuming they make it through. And despite failing to find the net against Wales, Wayne Rooney has been installed as 7/4 favourite. ‘Wayne is the most regularly played striker I the squad and deserves his place at the head of the market but granted a regular starting place in the side Andy Carroll and/or Darren Bent could well run him close’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
HILLS OFFER 9/2 THAT ROONEY, WHO CURRENTLY BOASTS 28 ENGLAND GOALS, WILL EVENTUALLY OVERTAKE BOBBY CHARLTON’S ALL TIME RECORD TOTAL OF 49 FOR HIS COUNTRY. ‘As Gary Lineker and Michael Owen both discovered, Bobby Charlton’s record is a daunting target which many have aimed at but none has yet managed to better’ added Sharpe.
Hills offer 1/8 that Rooney will not reach the target.
