With the January transfer window just over a month away, many markets will be reopening for transfer betting in the near future. Crystal Palace’s Marc Guehi was one of the league’s most sought-after centre-backs in the summer, and a move to Newcastle fell through at the last minute. With the Eagles now battling against relegation, there is potential that Guehi […]
With Ruben Amorim’s Manchester United debut fast approaching, there is an air of expectation around his arrival. The Portuguese manager enters the fray with a proven track record at Sporting Lisbon, having implemented direct attacking football and deployed a high tempo 3-4-3 formation. His first game comes against a leaky Ipswich defence, but one that secured its first win of […]
Since joining Manchester United from Real Madrid in the summer of 2022, the jury has been out on Casemiro’s quality. Acquired for £70 million at the age of 30, eyebrows were raised at the Brazilian’s signing, but he has often shown glimpses of his quality. Casemiro now appears set to remain with the Red Devils, but his transfer saga is […]
Since signing for Manchester United for the eye-watering fee of €95 million, it is safe to say Antony has not lived up to his price tag. The Brazilian is now in his third season at Old Trafford, but had seen his game time limited under Erik ten Hag before the Dutch manager’s dismissal. It now appears likely that he will […]
With all teams having played at least five games in the Nations League A Group, a few favourites have emerged as contenders to win the competition. However, despite being firmly top of their group, one former Euros winner has been priced at 9/2. That team is Portugal. Winners of the Euros in 2016, they have opened up a six-point gap […]
With nearly a third of the Championship season completed, the struggle to avoid relegation is really beginning to heat up. Queens Park Rangers are rooted to the foot of the table, but are by no means out of the race for survival. A closer examination of the teams attempting to scrape another year in the Championship shows that it is […]
Shockingly, news broke last week that Coventry manager Mark Robins had been sacked by the club after an eight-year spell. Robins was dismissed due to an apparent disagreement between himself and owner Doug King, who felt that Robins had uprooted the structure of the coaching staff at Coventry. Now, many high profile managers are tussling for the position. Current interim […]
Nearly a third of the way through the League One season and multiple unexpected players have thrown their hat in the ring to be the league’s top scorer. Many would not have expected a 21-year-old loanee to be the current joint top bagsman, but Stockport County’s Louie Barry has done exactly that. The striker has seen his early season odds […]
With Spurs’ most recent fixture finishing in a shocking 2-1 home defeat to Ipswich Town, it goes without saying that boss Ange Postecoglou is facing mounting pressure on his job, as the club sit in 10th place with less than a 50% win rate. Former Chelsea boss Graham Potter is currently the favourite to replace the Australian. Five wins and […]
Marcus Rashford has started the current Premier League campaign as disappointingly as he finished the last. One goal and one assist from his opening 11 Premier League matches is a disappointing return from a player once heralded to be Old Trafford’s next big thing. With the Englishman failing to live up to his prior hype once again, a move away […]
With news breaking that Gary Lineker will be stepping down as host of Match of the Day after 25 years on our screens, BBC Sport and Sky Sports presenter Alex Scott has now emerged as the favourite to take over from the former Tottenham and Leicester footballer. Priced at 6/4, Scott is by no means a firm favourite, and will […]
The 2024/25 EFL Championship season is starting to gather pace, and the odds and markets concerning who will be crowned champions are continuing to heat up. Here, we’ll be assessing the EFL Championship outright winner odds and providing weekly updates based on weekend results. Best EFL Championship outright winner odds Leeds – 3/4 Leeds were odds-on for automatic promotion to […]
As each week passes, the EFL Championship promotion odds chop and change. This provides opportunities to back some dark horses or shoot for the favourites throughout the season. Speaking of which, we’ve provided our thoughts on who will achieve that goal. All will be revealed here, but to start with, here are the main contenders to reach the Promised Land […]
Southampton boss Russell Martin remains the firm favourite to be the next manager to be sacked in the Premier League after the Saints lost 2-0 to fellow relegation rivals Wolves. However, continued struggles for West Ham mean Julen Lopetegui provides excellent value at 7/5. After Erik ten Hag became the first managerial casualty of the new season, the ships steadied […]
Arsenal and Manchester City still lead the way in the Premier League winner odds but it’s Liverpool who top the table and their price could soon drop from 4-1
After a strong start to the 2024/25 campaign saw Huddersfield Town win all of their opening four League One fixtures, Terriers fans must have been dreaming of an instant return to the Championship. However, the club’s form has since taken a nose dive, resulting in Michael Duff’s side currently occupying 8th place. This leaves Huddersfield outside the playoffs, let alone […]
Current Premier League top 4 odds provide an indication of where teams are expected to end up come next May. Will the league table look much as it did at the end of the previous campaign? Will we see some big changes at the top end of the table? Here’s our early take on the situation. Current favourites Liverpool remained […]
With the 2024/25 campaign now gathering pace, the bookies have a clear favourite in the Premier League top scorer odds market. But is it that straightforward this soon in a 38-game season? The runaway favourite is, of course, the two-time consecutive Golden Boot winner Erling Haaland. However, a few other big names are looking for their chance to take the […]
As we enter a new era of the Champions League, which sees 36 teams compete for 16 spots in the knockout round in a single league table, this also sees updates to the competition’s betting market. With all teams thrown together and high-seeded teams no longer afforded the protection they once had, we analyse which sides look most likely to […]
The latest UEFA Conference League outright winner odds outline a clear favourite, but previous editions have proven that even the smaller teams have a chance to succeed. After Olympiacos became the first Greek team to win a major club-level continental competition back in May, predicting who will win the UEFA Conference League in 2024/25 is even harder this time around. […]
All 36 teams in the UEFA Europa League have played three matches and it’s become a bit clearer who will challenge for honours and who will fall short, going by the latest betting trends. Since the draw was made, the UEFA Europa League winner odds have altered slightly, with certain teams being given a perceived ‘easier’ route to the knockout […]
After three matchdays of the new UEFA Champions League season was wrapped up earlier this week, various betting markets saw movement. One of these is for the player who delivers the most assists during this year’s longer format competition. Here are the favourites, and perhaps some wildcards in the latest Champions League top assister odds. Odds-on favourites Mohamed Salah now […]
An incredible evening for Viktor Gyokeres saw him bag a hattrick against Manchester City and give Sporting an historic victory over one of Europe’s strongest sides. The in-form Swedish international has had his odds sliced to 9/1 after the performance, as he has moved to be joint scorer alongside Raphinha, Robert Lewandowski and Harry Kane, who all have five goals […]
As ever, the UEFA Champions League outright winner odds market is one of the most exciting and dynamic ones around. It’s a new era in the competition’s rich and illustrious history, as 36 teams vie for 16 knockout round places in a single league table. It’s been the biggest shake-up in the UCL for over two decades, and the impact […]
After another goalless weekend for Erling Haaland, Cole Palmer has now jumped to the top of the PFA Player of the Year odds and sits as favourite to win the award. Firstly, here’s the current breakdown of odds, and the market-average prices available. PFA Player of the Year 2024/25 winner odds Selections to watch Cole Palmer – 11/4 With seven […]
With Trent Alexander-Arnold reportedly unwilling to sign a contract extension at Liverpool, the defender looks set for a January move so that the Reds can cash in on him before the expiration of his contract. Having been at the club’s academy since the age of six, a move for Trent would be groundbreaking. PSG and Real Madrid are currently the […]
Ruben Amorim has now been confirmed as the new Manchester United manager, which means that odds on the Portuguese manager being joined by talisman Viktor Gyokeres have now been made available. United are currently the front-runners to secure the Swedish striker’s signature. Signed from the relatively humble backdrop of Coventry City in the summer of 2023, the Swedish striker has […]
With only eight teams remaining in this iteration of the Carabao Cup, an all-Premier League finish has emerged, making it clearer who will most likely go all the way. The outright winner odds have changed slightly since the next round’s fixtures were decided after this week’s set of results. Liverpool and Arsenal currently lead the way, which begs the question […]
After an incredible start to the 2024/25 campaign for Sporting CP, the latest Ruben Amorim Man Utd manager odds have significantly shortened in the wake of Erik ten Hag’s sacking on Monday. Although Xavi’s price shortened on Monday afternoon, bookmakers were unified by the evening in their opinion that Amorim will be the next Red Devils boss. And now, 24 […]
No sooner had Rodri taken the Ballon d’Or award on Monday night, bets started coming in for the next edition. Here, we’ll analyse the Ballon d’Or 2025 winner odds, who the main favourites are and what each frontrunner will have to do to clinch it. Firstly, here’s the current breakdown of odds, and the market-average prices available. Ballon d’Or 2025 […]
A disastrous defeat against West Ham this weekend must have left Erik ten Hag wondering how his team had failed to secure anything from the game, and the writing was duly on the wall for the Dutch manager, who departed Old Trafford after a mostly miserable two-and-a-half year tenure. As the next Man Utd manager odds market comes alive, we […]
With news breaking this morning of Erik ten Hag being sacked by Manchester United, there appears to be a two-horse race developing between interim boss Ruud van Nistelrooy and Barcelona legend and former manager Xavi as to who will take the helm at Old Trafford. The Dutchman stands as favourite over Xavi, with the pair being priced at 5/2 and […]
The next Manchester United manager odds reveal a potential second coming of a former Red Devils sharpshooter, though he’ll be challenged well by one of Europe’s most forward-thinking coaches, amongst others. United boss Erik Ten Hag seemingly saved his job following an FA Cup final win over Man City in May. But a club-worst finish of eighth in the Premier […]
After a truly stellar performance saw Vinicius Junior bag a hattrick in a turnaround win for Real Madrid against Dortmund on Tuesday night, the Brazilian’s odds of adding to his trophy cabinet with a coveted Ballon d’Or have been cut to 4/9. With closest rival Rodri set at 7/1, here are five reasons why the Brazilian looks nailed on to […]
With Jack Wilshere having been confirmed as a new first-team coach for Norwich City, we take a look at what effect this may have on the EFL Championship odds for Norwich’s promotion hopes, as they look to end their Premier League exile at the third attempt. EFL Championship odds movement Today, bookies currently place Norwich at 9/1 to be promoted, […]
On Wednesday, 23 October, it was announced that 34-year-old French international Josuha Guilavogui has signed for Leeds United as a free agent. The former Wolfsburg holding midfielder will bring a wealth of experience to Elland Road, having racked up over 200 Bundesliga appearances for Die Wolfe. However, having made only 11 appearances for previous club Mainz in the last year, […]
