Who will win the Premier league this season?

Submitted by isport on Tue, 11/05/2013 - 10:51

The management changes at the clubs expected to vie for this season’s Premier League title – Chelsea, Manchester City and Manchester United- makes the issue of which one will win it all the more intriguing.

However for those keen on football betting, they also make it harder to predict. The bookmakers have made City the early season favourites, but even they recognise that there seems little to divide the teams, as you can get very low odds (2/1, 3/1) on City and Chelsea at some sites. So are there any indicators that could help you decide who to wager on?

The new era at Old Trafford has not gone exactly to plan, with Manchester United struggling to keep up with the chasing pack. With a shock home defeat to West Brom and a derby day mauling by Manchester City, many punters steered clear of betting on the current champions.

David Moyes has suffered a lot of criticism for fans and pundits alike, but it’s the bookmakers’ opinion which is most telling. United’s odds for regaining the crown have rocketed up since the start of the season and are now placed at 8/1, far behind City and Chelsea. But over recent weeks, The Red Devils have started to gather momentum, and with Wayne Rooney is such fine form, perhaps it is too early to write them off. Moyes’ men are starting to click, and the rest of the league should start to worry.

The outsiders for the title at the beginning of the season were Arsenal, but after the acquisition of Mesut Ozil, Arsene Wenger’s team have looks a different proposition. With only one defeat on the opening day and now being 5 points clear at the top, the bookies have slashed their odds down to 7/2. Another early season pace-setters are Liverpool, who are the underdogs at 9/1.

In August, it was hard to see the trophy going anywhere outside of Stamford Bridge, Old Trafford or the Etihad, but now the title race is wide open. And with the odds some bookmakers’ are offering, it’s easy to see why some people prefer to play online casino slots such as Game On at online pokies.

After all, the triple level skill shot game that features as a bonus with this game makes it a perfect choice for anyone who loves football. The availability of mobile casino apps means that you can take it to your team’s matches and play it at halftime. Game On also has most of the elements of a classic slots game, including a cash jackpot, wild symbol (to improve your payout chances), and a three reel format (rather than the five reels of many online slots). All this makes it a fabulous slot machine game, whether you love football, casino or both.
