Premier League

The tennis outright wagers have gone pear-shaped this week which is disappointing after the profitable Aussie Open. 

Turning my attention to football, I've got involved in the Premier League betting which may seem a bit strange after 26 matches have already been played. 

I believe it's a close three-horse race: Chelsea, Man City and Liverpool. I think Arsenal will continue to drop points as the season comes to a climax. A big factor is potential fixture list congestion with all the teams mentioned except Liverpool involved in the Champions' League. All four teams are also still in the FA Cup (until this weekend anyway) and in addition Man City play in the League Cup final. 

Upcoming Premier League fixtures may also favour Liverpool with both Chelsea and Man City having to go to Anfield. Man City also have to travel to Arsenal, Everton and Man Utd. Chelsea appear to have a better run-in than Man City and unlike the markets I would make them favourites for the Premiership ahead of Man City. 

Liverpool, without the distraction of Champions' League football and possessing the best strike partnership of Sturridge and Suarez, make some appeal at a widely available 8/1. Bookies however are generally 1/4 odds 1,2 but Coral offer 1/3 odds 1,2. I have had:

3pts ew Liverpool @ 8/1 Coral (1/3 odds 1,2) 

Perhaps Liverpool are the dark horses who could beat Mourinho's little horse....
