Manchester City reinstalled as favourites for Premier League as Liverpool slip up again

Liverpool are now odds-against second favourites having dropped crucial points.

Manchester City have been cut to favourites to win the Premier League, following Liverpool’s frustrating 1-1 draw with West Ham last night.

Heading into the game at the London Stadium, Jurgen Klopp’s side were marginal favourites for the title at 8/13, but that price is long gone.

Liverpool have lengthened to 6/5 to secure their first ever Premier League title, with Man City swapping places into 10/11 odds-on favourites.

Elsewhere, what was presumed to be a two-horse race could be considered a three-way tie, with Spurs being cut from 80/1 just weeks ago, into as short as 16/1 to win the title.

Punters are overwhelmingly backing City following Liverpool’s draw with the Hammers, with 39% of all bets being placed on Guardiola’s side since.

What's more, is that the vast majority of actual money is being placed on Guardiola's side, with 68% of all stakes backing the Manchester outfit.

Oddschecker spokesperson George Elek: “At 1-0 up against Leicester on Wednesday evening, the idea that just a few days later Liverpool would lose favouritism for the Premier League title was unthinkable.

“Four dropped points since and now Manchester City have a chance to go top again tomorrow, and don't write off Tottenham who are hanging five points back at 20/1.”
