WILLIAM HILL make Arsenal, with ten goals from their two Premiership games so far, 33/1 to score 100 or more goals in the league this season, and have also opened a book on how many they will end up with, ‘Surely Arsenal can’t keep up the goal-scoring pace they have opened up with?’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe, ‘But we think they have a decent chance of getting 77 or more’:

CAN POMPEY BE FIRST TO BREACH CITY DEFENCE?

WITH MANCHESTER CITY yet to concede a Premiership goal William Hill have opened a book on when they will do so and make Sunday’s trip to Portsmouth their 5/6 favourite.’Most people expected City’s star studded strike-force to be the key to their success – or lack of it – this season – but the defence has been rock solid thus far’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
When will Man City concede their first premier league goal:
Portsmouth A 5/6
Arsenal H 6/4
Man Utd A 4/1
West Ham H 33/1
Aston Villa A 40/1
Do Not Concede in these games 66/1
Matches must be played in the above order or bets void
WHERE WILL THE GOAL-FEST BE?

WILLIAM HILL are betting on which of Saturday’s Premiership games will produce the most goals, and make Burnley’s visit to Chelsea their 9/4 favourite. ‘Although Burnley have done brilliantly to pick up two wins already we suspect that the game at Stamford Bridge will test their defensive capabilities to the limit’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Highest Scoring Premier League match (Saturday’s Games)
Chelsea v Burnley 5/2
Tottenham v Birmingham 11/4
Bolton v Liverpool 9/2
Wolves v Hull 11/2
Man Utd v Arsenal 6/1
Blackburn v West Ham 8/1
Stoke v Sunderland 8/1
WHO’LL BE QUICKEST OFF MARK?
WILLIAM HILL are betting on which of Saturday’s 3pm kick off Premiership matches will produce the quickest goal and are backing the Spurs v Birmingham game to do so, making it their 5/2 favourite. ‘Spurs’ strikers have been rampant so far and they will be going for goal from the off’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Which Premier League match will have the 1st goal (Saturday 15.00 kick offs)
Tottenham v Birmingham 5/2
Bolton v Liverpool 3/1
Wolves v Hull 7/2
Blackburn v West Ham 7/2
Stoke v Sunderland 5/1

BURNLEY STILL TOP OF BOTTOM BETTING

DESPITE their excellent start to the campaign, Burnley are 11/4 co-favourites with William Hill to finish bottom of the Premiership table with Hills, who also make them 4/6 to go down. Hills also have Hull (4/6 for drop) and Portsmouth (8/11 to go down) 11/4 co-favourites and also offer 7/1 Birmingham (5/4 go down); 7/1 Wolves (15/8); 16 Stoke (9/2); 20 Blackburn (6/1); Bolton (9/2); Wigan (4/1).

STRIKING ODDS

TORRES is 3/1 favourite to win this season’s Golden Boot with William Hill who also offer 5/1 Drogba; Rooney; 6 Defoe; 10 Anelka; Adebayor; 16 Owen.

HART OF THE MATTER

DESPITE reportedly receiving the dreaded vote of confidence from the club’s new owner, William Hill have seen a flurry of support for Pompey boss Paul Hart to be the first manager to lose his job in the Premiership this season, and have cut his odds from 4/1 to 7/4 favourite.
Hills make Phil Brown 3/1 second favourite to go first and also offer 5/1 Rafa Benitez; 10 Alex McLeish and Gary Megson; 11 David Moyes; 14 Mark Hughes; Gianfranco Zola; 20 Martin O’Neill.

NOTTS A TON-UP CERTAINTY?

A WILLIAM HILL punter from Shrewbury has staked £750 at odds of 10/1 on Notts County to amass 100 points and 100 goals in League Two this season.’County have been flying in most of their early matches, but the defeat by Chesterfield suggests that it may not be plain sailing all the way this season’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe, ‘However, this bet is typical of the interest we have been seeing for Sven’s side to canter to the title’.
Hills make County 11/10 favourites to win League Two, with Rotherham at 8/1; Bournemouth 12/1; Chesterfield and Crewe both 14/1.

Benitez Backed To Be First Boss To Go.

Football Betting News From William Hill Bookmaker 0 Comments , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

RAFA BENITEZ has been the subject of a gamble concentrated in the Kent and Bristol areas to be the first Premiership manager to leave his club this season, with William Hill slashing his odds from 20/1 to 11/2 third favourite.
‘We have seen a string of punters asking for bets of up to £300 a time for Benitez to be the first boss to go’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe, ‘I’m not sure whether Rafa has friends or family in Bristol and, or, Kent, but you can’t take chances in markets like this. We have cut his odds several times but are still seeing interest even at 11/2’.
HILLS CURRENTLY OFFER 2/5 THAT BENITEZ WILL STILL BE LIVERPOOL BOSS ON THE LAST DAY OF THE SEASON, 7/4 THAT HE WILL NOT.
William Hill: First Prem boss to go: 11/4 Phil Brown; 9/2 Paul Hart; 11/2 Benitez; 6/1 McLeish; 15/2 Zola; 8 Hughes; 12 Megson; 20 Martinez.

And Hills are also betting on how many goals the four matches combined will produce – ‘There were plenty of goals in the opening round of the Premiership, although Arsenal scored most of them, and we’re anticipating that trend continuing into this evening’s matches – we fancy there will be at least a dozen’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

Who’ll Go First – Moyes Or O’ Neill ?

Football Betting News From William Hill Bookmaker 0 Comments , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

WHO’LL GO FIRST – MOYES OR O’NEILL?

WITH both of their sides making a disappointing start to the new season, William Hill have slashed the odds about David Moyes and Mart O’Neill being the first manager of the season to leave his club – and opened a book on which of the two will go first this season.
Hills make Moyes 7/1 to go first this season; O’Neill 8/1 but offer 1/7 that both will still be in place when the final Premiership game of the season kicks off.
Hills make Villa 8/11 by Hills to finish higher than Everton, who are Even money to do vice versa.
MOYES has been cut from 40/1 to 16/1 by Hills to be the first manager to go this season, with O’Neill down from 33/1 to 20/1. ‘Both are amongst the best regarded managers in the Premiership but their opening results have suggested that they might both struggle to equal or improve upon what their sides managed to do last season, and that could prompt a sacking or resignation’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
HILLS: FIRST PREMIERSHIP MANAGER TO PART COMPANY WITH CLUB: 7/2 Hart; 5/1 Brown; McLeish; 8/1 Hughes; 10/1 Megson; 16/1 McCarthy; Moyes; 20/1 O’Neill; 25 Benitez; Hodgson; Martinez.

Hills offer 8/1 that no Rovers player is booked; 3/1 just one; 9/4 two; 3/1 three; 6/1 four; 8/1 five; 12/1 six. ‘If Dunn and Blackburn wanted to keep on the right side of the ref in this match, he seems to have gone a strange way about it’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

BURN-ING MONEY?
WILLIAM HILL have taken a bet of £300 on Burnley winning the Premiership at odds of 2500/1 – in a Hampstead, London betting shop. ‘It is fair to say that this was the most unexpected bet we have taken on the title race, and we have cut their odds to, er, 2000/1’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe, ‘But it wasn’t such a shock to take a £10,000 bet on Manchester City, in the form of a £5000 each-way wager. Burnley and City are our worst potential outcomes in the title race but it is fair to say we are taking one of them more seriously than the other!’
LATEST WILLIAM HILL PREMIERSHIP TITLE ODDS: 15/8 Chelsea; 23/10 Man U; 4 Liverpool; 9 Arsenal; 11 Man City; 125 Spurs; 200 Everton; Villa; 500 West Ham;2000 Burnley.

PUNTERS BET ON BROKEN HART

Portsmouth’s Paul Hart has been the heaviest backed manager in William Hill’s ‘first Premiership boss to go’ market. Hart is now 4/1 favourite, having been backed down from 6/1, with Phil Brown and Alex McLeish the 9/2 joint second favourites, and Mark Hughes 6/1 fourth favourite. ‘Pompey’s financial woes and their lacklustre form at the end of the last campaign undoubtedly explain the gamble on Hart, but if their takeover goes through shortly and they are able to bring players in, their situation could change rapidly’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
