Raining Goals At The Reebok…when Will Manchester Lose?

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

The two Manchester sides produced two more polished and efficient performances and William Hill are offering odds on how many the pair will score between them next weekend and make go odds-on at 4/6 that between them they score less than five. With both sides maintaining a 100% record, Hills make Manchester City 4/7 to lose first of the two, with United 5/4 to do so. Hills offer 100/1 that both sides end the season undefeated. Wayne Rooney scored his second consecutive hat-trick against Bolton and Hills offer 33/1 that he completes a hat-trick of hat-tricks against Chelsea next week.

Manchester United are 1/2 to end the season having scored more goals than their “noisy neighbours” who are 6/4 to do so. United are 11/10 to win the league with Manchester City 15/8. Chelsea are 9/2.

“United and City are beginning to pull away from their nearest challengers and the clinical way in which both sides are going about their business indicates that any side that comes up against the two powerhouses from Manchester will be turned over with consummate ease,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly. “Our punters are going Manchester Mad this season.”

A side at the other end of the table, Swansea, are still to score in the Premier League but Hills think they will break their duck against West Brom next week at 1/3, with the Chelsea game 10/3. They are 5/1 to score their first goal against Stoke and 16/1 that they do not score in either of those games.

LAST TO WIN/LAST TO LOSE

Blackburn’s failure to win at Craven Cottage means that they, along with hosts Fulham, remain as one of the five teams in the Premier League still to register a victory. Hills offer 23/10 that Blackburn are the last side in the division to get three points, while Fulham are 11/2 to do so. Swansea are the 21/10 favourites.

“It will start to get worrying for those teams at the bottom if they go much longer without a victory and every week, the relegation odds for those sides involved get shorter and shorter,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

At the other end of the table, there are six sides who are yet to be beaten, and Manchester United are 6/5 to go the longest without defeat. Manchester City are 2/1 with Chelsea 9/2.

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

Arsenal are having a torrid time of things at the moment with players wanting out, injuries and suspensions. Hills predict that they will struggle to take many points from the next two games (against Liverpool and Manchester United) offering 7/2 they get none and 9/4 just one. Arsenal will need to strengthen if they are to challenge for any honours this year and Hills offer 13/8 that Wenger makes four or more signings before the end of the transfer window. Samir Nasri is 1/12 to leave Arsenal by the end of the transfer window and 6/1 to remain at the Emirates. Arsenal are 1/6 to finish another season with no silverware.

“Arsene is already under pressure and the odds suggest that Arsenal could feasibly have just one point after their first three games,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Wesley Sneijder looks as though his move to Manchester United may be drawing ever closer with Hills making him 8/11 to now make the move from Italy. He is Evens to stay with Inter. Luka Modric has been the subject of a new bid from Chelsea and he is 8/13 to make the Blues his next club.

Jose Jab Could Land The Special One In Hot Water

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

Another fiery El Clasico ended with a fracas and William Hill are offering 1/3 that Jose Mourinho receives a touchline ban for his rather ungentlemanly conduct. He is 9/4 to escape punishment. Hills also offer Even money that there is a red card in the first Barca/Real Madrid game of the season.

“Mourinho has been a very naughty boy once again and it looks as though the Spanish FA will see through his innocent schoolchild protests and hand him a ban,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

It is thought that Mourinho will have to improve on his one trophy from last season if he is to keep his job and Hills go 8/11 that he has left the Bernabeu by the start of the 2012/13 season. Should he be in the search for a job, Hills make Manchester City the most likely destination at 11/4 and Manchester United the 3/1 second favourites.

Where will Mourinho manage next: 11/4 Manchester City; 3/1 Manchester United; 7/2 Chelsea; 9/2 Inter Milan; 7/1 AC Milan; 9/1 Bayern Munich; 11/1 Arsenal; 33/1 Barcelona

Mourinho to receive touchline ban for Super Cup incident: 1/3 Yes; 9/4 no

Red card in the first El Clasico: 1/1

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

Manchester City gave Swansea City a harsh lesson in efficiency winning with new boy, Sergio Aguero netting two. William Hill make him 4/1 favourite (from 12/1) to win the Premier League’s golden boot. Swansea on the other hand completed the hat trick of the promoted sides failing to win their opening games and William Hill make Swansea 13/8 to be the last of the promoted sides to register a win. Norwich are 6/4 and QPR are 7/4. Swansea are 11/10 to win their next game against Wigan and 3/1 to record their first Premier League win against Sunderland. They are 11/4 to fail to win within the next five games.

“Aguero was absolutely fantastic on his debut and looks as though he will make an immediate impact on the Premier League,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly. “Swansea, on the other hand, were given the runaround by Mancini’s men and will have to look to Wigan next week for improvement.”

Manchester City are 10/3 to win the Premier League, while at the other end of the table, Swansea are 8/15 favourites.

Next Swansea Win: 11/10 Wigan; 3/1 Sunderland; 25/1 Arsenal; 5/1 West Brom; 50/1 Chelsea; 11/4 None of the next five games

City Start Shows Promise As Aguero Slashed For Golden Boot

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

Manchester City showed their obvious class when upstaging Swansea on their return to the big time, to record the only home win of the opening week of the Premier League. New boy Sergio Aguero, scored two and set up one on his City debut and William Hill are offering 4/1 that he bags the golden boot during his first season in Premier League football. Manchester City are 10/3 to win the Premier League this season but are still behind Manchester United and Chelsea at 6/5 and 3/1 respectively. Hills offer 10/3 about a United/City 1-2, while a City/United forecast is 11/2.

“After just one game, the league is looking ominous for teams around the country as the North West occupy the top three,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly. “Realistically, there will only be two of those sides there at the end of the season but on the weekend’s form, the Manchester sides will take some shifting from their lofty perch.”

Despite performing well in the first half, Swansea faded in the second and succumbed to a big defeat and they are Hill’s favourites, at 8/15 to be relegated. Swansea are 13/8 to be the last of the promoted sides to register a Premier League win. Norwich are 6/4 and QPR are 7/4. All three promoted sides are 4/1 to be relegated. Swansea are 11/10 to win their next game against Wigan and 3/1 to record their first Premier League win against Sunderland. They are 11/4 to fail to win within the next five games.
Next Swansea Win: 11/10 Wigan; 3/1 Sunderland; 25/1 Arsenal; 5/1 West Brom; 50/1 Chelsea; 11/4 None of the next five games

Red Mist On The Tyne Hampers Arsenal’s Chance To Steal A March

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

Newcastle and Arsenal shared the spoils on the opening day of the season and Arsenal have been pushed out to 12/1 to win the Premier League with William Hill. In a fiery affair, there was one red card for Arsenal and could have been another with Joey Barton involved in both incidents. Hills offer 6/5 that Arsenal receive between one and three red cards this season and 7/4 that they get four or five. Joey Barton on the other hand is odds on, at 4/6 to receive no red cards this season and is 5/6 to still be at Newcastle at the end of the summer transfer window and 5/6 that he is not. An uninspiring draw will not have improved Arsenal fan’s dim view on Arsene Wenger’s transfer policy and he is 5/2 to have left his job by the final day of this season.

“Arsene’s men lost their heads once again at St James’ Park and came away with a draw,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly. “While not a disastrous result, the craft of Fabregas and Nasri was sorely missed and Wenger may have to splash the cash quite soon.”

Elsewhere, Liverpool’s odds of 10/1 were eased to 12/1 following a home draw against Sunderland.

Joey Barton Red Cards In The Premier League: 4/6 none; 5/2 one; 3/1 two or more

Arsenal red cards in the Premier League: 6/5 one – three; 7/4 four – five; 9/4 six or more

Joey Barton to still be at Newcastle come the end of the transfer window: 5/6 yes; 5/6 no

Arsene Wenger to still be Arsenal boss come the last day of the season: 2/7 yes; 5/2 no
