The only goal at the Etihad was a penalty scored by Steven Gerrard and Hills offer 3/1 that a penalty is awarded during the match.

Is The Fa Cup On The Way To London?

MANCHESTER UNITED VS LIVERPOOL THROWS TOURNAMENT WIDE OPEN

The first FA Cup draw since William Hill became an official supporter and the official betting partner of The FA Cup threw up a couple of tasty looking ties. The highest profile of which would seem to be the tie between Liverpool and Manchester United. Hills make Liverpool 11/8 the slight favourites to make it into the hat for the fifth round. United got an away win against Manchester City and they are 13/8 to win at Anfield. Liverpool are 8/11 to qualify with United Evens. It is 4/1 for the winner of this tie to win the trophy.

The other big tie of the round will see Sunderland taking on Middlesbrough in an all North East tie and Hills make Sunderland the favourites at 4/6 and 2/5 to qualify.

Following their victory against Portsmouth, Chelsea are the 4/1 favourites to win the Cup, with Tottenham 9/2 second favourites.

With a number of London teams still in the hat, Hills are offering 5/1 that two sides from the capital fight it out in the final. It is 66/1 for an all Merseyside final and 150/1 for an all North-East final.

“With Liverpool facing Manchester United, you would think that the draw is ideally suited for the London sides to stamp their authority on the competition,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

With three Premier League teams (Bolton, QPR and Wolves) having to face third round replays, Hills offer even money that all three get through (8/11 that at least one of those teams are knocked out). Hills go 100/1 that all three Premier League sides facing replays are knocked out.

Dave Jones, speaking exclusively to William Hill, said “The Liverpool/Manchester United fourth round draw will be one of the biggest games in the competition’s history. It will be a tough away game for United, but as they proved today when they beat Manchester City, they have the quality to go to Anfield and get a result. It will however, be very tough for them as Liverpool have been resurgent under Kenny Dalglish.”

4/6 Sunderland; 5/2 Draw; 16/5 Middlesbrough
1/2 Hull; 13/5 Draw; 9/2 Crawley

William Hill offer 5/2 that Sir Alex Ferguson will no longer be Man U boss at the start of next season, and 10/3 that Wayne Rooney will have left the club by then as United crashed to a 2nd straight defeat and Rooney was taken off well before the end of the game. ‘All of a sudden United’s season is collapsing around them and it could be that the Fergie era is coming to an end’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

When Will City Lose At Home?

TOTTENHAM HAVE THE SPURS TO PUSH MANCHESTER ALL THE WAY

A win for Manchester City after a tough couple of games has seen William Hill cut their odds of winning the league to 8/13. Spurs sneaked a victory at home to West Brom and they are 10/1 third favourites to win the League. Sunderland continued their fine form under Martin O’Neill and Hills make them 6/4 to finish higher than Newcastle in the league.

Taking both Manchester sides out of the equation, Spurs are odds-on at 8/11 to win the league.

“Spurs played well against West Brom, but struggled to find the breakthrough,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly. “They are grinding out results like this though and they are showing that they have the resilience to push the Manchester sides all the way.”

City once again avoided defeat at home and have not lost at the Etihad since losing to Everton on 20th December 2010 and Hills make them odds on, at 10/11 to avoid defeat in their next five games, although they are 10/3 to lose to Spurs on the 22nd January.

Sergio Aguero Bagged himself a goal and edged closer to Robin van Persie in the race to win the golden boot. He is the 5/2 second favourite behind the Dutchman who is miles ahead at 5/4.

Wigan were thumped at home by Sunderland and they are 2/1 favourites to finish bottom of the Premier League and 4/9 favourites to get relegated at the end of the season.

Premier League Outright: 8/13 Manchester City; 7/4 Manchester United; 10/1 Tottanham; 50/1 Chelsea; 66/1 Arsenal; 100/1 Liverpool

Villas Boas Rescued But Rovers May Be Kean To Give Steve The Elbow

Blackburn were unable to build on their victory at Old Trafford and were promptly defeated at home by Stoke. William Hill make Steve Kean’s men 8/13 to go down with Bolton 8/15 favourites and Wigan 4/7 while they are 11/4 to finish bottom.

Frank Lampard salvaged a victory for Chelsea and Hills make them 9/4 second favourites to win the Premier League without the two Manchester sides. The three points against Wolves has eased some of the pressure on manager, Andre Villas-Boas and Hills make him odds on, at 8/13, to still be at Chelsea on the first day of next season. While AVB was met with cheers, two of his counterparts, Steve Kean and Alex McLeish, were met with jeers and Hills make them 8/13 (Kean) and Even money (McLeish) to have left their positions before the start of the 2012/13 season. Kean is 10/11 favourite to be the second Premier League manager to leave his job.

“Just as Andre Villas-Boas looks doomed, he manages to claw his way back from the brink and our odds hint that he may well be there come next season,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly. “Unfortunately, we may not be able to say the same about Steve Kean and Alex McLeish.”

Relegation: 8/15 Bolton; 4/7 Wigan; 8/13 Blackburn; 7/4 Wolves; 9/4 QPR; 3/1 Swansea; 11/2 Norwich; 14/1 BAR
