With things starting to settle down after all the excitement and furore of a brand new Premier League season, most teams are at the ten-match mark, and the early signs are that this season could be one of the most exciting in terms of competition at the top.
Just looking at the current situation in Premier League Betting, it is clear that there are some shifts in power among the top flight of English football. There is a lot of signs that the gap at the top is closing, and whether the complete dominance from Manchester United is slipping backwards in post Cristiano Ronaldo days, and whether the aging legs of Chelsea are starting to tread water, it is not clear. They are still the class teams of the Premier League, but maybe, with the trend of new investments happening, other teams are catching up. The Big Four will certainly not have everything their own way this year, and there is a lot more potential to lose points, as has already been shown.
The Bookmakers will continue to keep Manchester United and Chelsea on a tight reign, as the winner will, more likely than not come from one of those two teams. It has been said that whoever finishes above Chelsea will win the league, if not them. The Stamford Bridge outfit are tipped for the top, not only in the league, but to challenge hard for the Champions League as well. The Blues, despite a couple of small glitches, have hit some good goal scoring form over the past two matches, highlighting why Carlo Ancelotti’s men are one of, if not the force to be reckoned with. There is a crucial match coming up in a couple of weeks, when Manchester United head south to face them. Chelsea currently top the Premier League by two points, and the best odds that can be picked up for them are 6/1 at Coral.
The chasing pack consist of the likes of Arsenal and Liverpool, as to be expected, but they have been joined by more teams who are putting pressure on to break up the dominance of the so called Big Four. Aston Villa, Tottenham and big summer spenders Manchester City (14/1 at Bet365) are all making claims for a top four finish this season, as they look to at least claim a much coveted Champions League spot if not the league title itself. At the bottom of the Premier League, Portsmouth and their tale of woe so far this season, are rooted at the depths and cannot seem to find a way out. The current situation in Premier League Betting puts Hull City as favourites to take the drop, but also in a lot of danger are Gianfranco Zola’s West Ham, both of those two clubs without a home win so far. As much as the gap may be closing at the top, it could all mean that the gulf between the top and bottom of the league, will be a wider one than ever.
