KUYT FLYING FROM LIVERPOOL?

Dirk Kuyt could be one of a number of high profile casualties at Liverpool this summer, with William Hill offering 5/4 that he has left the club by the start of next season. Another who could be on his way is Maxi Rodriguez, who is Even money to have gone in the same time frame. The good news for Liverpool, however, is that Suarez, Gerrard and Reina all look like they will be staying, with Hills making them 1/4, 1/16 and 1/12 respectively to still be at Anfield. Kuyt is popular at Liverpool but he could be amongst the players most likely to leave the club before the start of next season said Hills spokesman Graham Share.

To be at Liverpool start of 2012/2013 season Yes No
Dirk Kuyt 4/7 5/4
Pepe Reina 1/12 6/1
Andy Carroll 1/3 9/4
Maxi Rodriguez 8/11 EVS
Steven Gerrard 1/16 7/1
Luis Suarez 1/4 11/4

BENT INTO SHAPE?

DARREN BENT is optimistic that he can regain fitness in time to be part of the Euro squad but William Hill are less confident and offer 4/1 that he will be included in the final squad. With the current shortage of reliable English forwards, other than Rooney, Bent will have a great chance of being included if he can overcome his serious injury in time said Hills spokesman Graham Sharpe.

Hills – Darren Bent to be in the Euro squad? 4/1 yes; 1/7 no

LAWRIE BETTING ON LADY BOSSES

Lawrie Sanchez has claimed that he can envisage a female manager taking charge of a Premier League club within the next ten years, but Hills disagree, offering 100/1 that a female is in the Premier League within the next decade. It is 33/1 for a female manager to be in the Football League within the next 5 years. Apparently Sanmchez has bet a pal that there will be a female Premier League boss within ten years I hope he got decent odds as were prepared to offer 100/1about it happening! said Hills spokesman Graham Sharpe.

Bookmakers William Hill are offering a number of specials about how England will fare in their Euro 2012 group. Hills offer 4/1 that England get maximum points from their remaining fixtures and 5/4 that they fall just short with 19-21 points. They are 7/4 to score between 19 and 21 goals and 9/2 to score 22 or more goals. Hills think that Group G is going to be incredibly tight and offer 7/4 that England win the group with games to spare, but 2/5 that they do not.

Jermaine Defoe is currently Englands leading scorer in Euro 2012 qualifiers with three and Hills go 5/4 that he ends the campaign as top marksman. Darren Bent is 6/4 second favourite, while Lampard and Rooney are 6/1 and 7/1 respectively.

England are top of their group and while they are expected to qualify, the odds suggest that it will be closer than many would expect, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly.

England are 2/5 to win the match at Wembley with Switzerland 6/1. The draw is priced at 14/5. Hills also offer 3/1 that any England substitute scores a goal. Darren Bent is the 10/3 favourite to open the scoring on Saturday, with Peter Crouch 9/2, joint second favourite with Bobby Zamora.

England are 8/1 to win Euro 2012 and 12/1 to win the competition without losing a game either in qualifying or the finals themselves.

With Wayne Rooney banned for the England match against Switzerland, William Hill are betting on which of the three forwards in the squad will start the game. Darren Bent is 1/7 while Peter Crouch is 1/4. Bobby Zamora is 11/4. The central midfield is another position that is up for grabs during the match and Hills make Scott Parker, Frank Lampard and Jack Wilshere all odds on to start, with Capello thought to be considering three men across the middle. Parker is 4/9, while Lampard is 1/10 and Jack Wilshere 4/11.

To Start vs Switzerland:
Peter Crouch 1/4 Yes; 11/4 No
Darren Bent 1/7 Yes; 4/1 No
Bobby Zamora 11/4 Yes; 1/4 No
Scott Parker 4/9 Yes; 13/8 No
Frank Lampard 1/10 Yes; 11/2 No
Jack Wilshere 4/11 Yes; 2/1 No
