33/1 For Two More Shootouts…spain Favourites

A draw in the Spain/Portugal was a fantastic result for the bookmakers, with William Hill reporting that just 7% of all bets on the 90 minutes market were placed on the draw. “Spain had 56% of all bets and so anything avoiding a win would have been good for us, but a draw, coupled with the fact that Ronaldo failed to find the net resulted in a fantastic night for us,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

After being the second game in a row to go to penalties, William Hill are offering 33/1 that the second semi final and the final both go to penalties. The Germany/Italy game is 33/1 to go to penalties.

Spain have made it through to the final of the Euros and William Hill make them the 5/6 favourites to win the tournament now with Germany 7/4 and Italy 6/1.

Tournament winner: 5/6 Spain; 7/4 Germany; 6/1 Italy

Top goalscorer: 4/6 Mario Gomez; 10/1 Alan Dzagoev; 10/1 Mario Mandzukic; 10/1 Cristiano Ronaldo; 14/1 Fernando Torres; 20/1 Cesc Fabregas; 25/1 BAR

Chelsea Lose Once More As Bolton Cut For Top Four Finish

Chelsea lost for the second game in a row but William Hill believe that the losing streak will not last long, offering 2/5 that they win the next game against Newcastle. The Blues play Man Utd on the 19th December and are 20/1 to not win until that game. Ancelotti is 11/8 to have left Chelsea by the first game of next season.

Manchester United won again today and Hills offer 20/1 that they can emulate the Arsenal ‘invincibles’ and remain undefeated all season. Their victory saw the return of Wayne Rooney who did not manage to get his name on the score sheet once more. Hills make him Even money to end his current drought against Rangers on Wednesday evening and 5/2 that it happens against Blackburn.

Bolton Wanderers have been the surprise package this season and currently sit in fourth spot in the Premier League. They are 25/1 to qualify for the Champion’s League (having been 250/1 at the start of the season) and 7/4 to finish in the Europa League spots (5th to 8th). They are 28/1 to finish in the bottom three.

“The league has started to take on a familiar shape, but with the top four faltering a bit, it could be time for one of the more unfashionable clubs to make their mark,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

YOU BET GERRARD WILL KEEP GOAL-SCORING RUN GOING

14/1 ENGLAND TO WIN NEXT TWO GAMES – AND THE WORLD CUP!

ENGLAND are 14/1 with Hills to defeat both Algeria and Slovenia, and then go on to win the World Cup. ‘This should be an attractive bet for anyone who fancies England to go all the way – because if they can’t win both of these matches they won’t have much chance of lifting the trophy’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

ENGLAND are 1/4 to beat Algeria, 11/1, with the draw 9/2. To win Group: 8/15 England; 3/1 USA; 19/5 Slovenia; 66/1 Algeria.

WORLDWIDE WEBB?…Ref Howard Webb will be secretly hoping England fail to reach the World Cup Final – because if they do that will scupper his chances of being handed to top job for the game’s arbiters.

Webb performed well in his first game of the tournament and Hills quote him at 6/1 to get the nod to ref the Final. (Stakes refunded if England reach Final).
