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

Manchester City take on the fallen Italian giants, Juventus, in Turin, in what is a dead rubber in the Europa League. William Hill have City 9/5 to secure victory in Italy, while Juventus are 6/4 to win. City have not scored many goals recently, however, they have also conceded very few and Hills make them 3/1 to win to nil.

City are 5/1 to win the Europa League and 7/2 to get knocked out in the Quarter Final. They are 7/1 to reach the final and lose.

“The Europa League is currently City’s best chance at winning some silverware and even if they lose Tevez, our punters think that they are good value to win Europe’s second competition,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Money Bags Manchester City are all but certain to bolster their squad in January and Edin Dzeko, the Wolfsburg captain is Even money to make the move to Eastlands during the winter transfer window. Luis Suarez is 6/4 and the highly rated and much coveted Gary Cahill is 2/1.

The current news stories surrounding Carlos Tevez have sparked rumours as to where he will be plying his trade come the first day of next season, with Spain the 11/10 favourite. Manchester City are 6/4 to hold his registration, while any other English club is 6/1. There is as much chance of Tevez playing in South America as there is of him officially retiring, with both options priced at 10/1.

Despite the Carlos Tevez controversies, William Hill are not expecting them to impinge too greatly on Manchester City’s League aspirations, with fourth or fifth place looking the most likely, with both priced at 9/4. City are 6/1 to win the Premier League.

6/4 Juventus; 9/5 Manchester City; 9/4 Draw

Where Will Carlos Tevez Be On The First Game Of Next Season: 11/10 Spanish Club; 6/4 Man City; 6/1 Any UK Club; 10/1 Any South American Club; 10/1 Officially Retired (no registration held)
