The heat is on, and premier league fans cannot help but tune in to each game, cheering on their favorites. But is your favorite team destined to make it to the top, or will it be facing relegation? An easy way to tell which way the favor lies is by checking out the odds offered by bookies. And thanks to our scoring of the Grosvenor Sports website, we have an inkling of who you should be rooting for – and the answer may surprise you. So, sit tight and check if their odds align with your bets.
Who Will Win the Premier League?
As of 10th March 2022, Manchester City was on the lead, with Liverpool coming in second place. Chelsea and Arsenal followed, with Arsenal, Tottenham, and Manchester United coming in 5th, 6th, and 7th place. Is this an indication of what is to follow? Let’s find out:
Manchester City
There is no doubt that this team has had a good run in the matches so far. It boasts 92 points and is a definite qualifier for the UCL. And if the odds are anything to go by, it is by far the biggest favorite – not just in Grosvenor but in other betting sites as well. It stands a 78% chance of winning the premier league, which is much higher than Liverpool’s 22%. Of course, it helps that the two teams have a 5-point difference between them in favor of Man City.
When City lost to Tottenham, there were fears that this would harm their position and even cause chaos in the team. But their win at the Manchester Derby proved otherwise, propelling them to this first position that seems to belong solely to this Pep Guardiola squad.
Does this mean the team is destined to win the premier league? Grosvenor has this team on 7/10 favorites. We must keep in mind that Liverpool is a close second. And in the upcoming fixtures, Guardiola’s team is set to play against Liverpool. That will be one huge match that could be the ultimate deciding factor. Moreover, West Ham and Southampton also show promise that could hurt City’s position in the league. But if we go with the odds set at Grosvenor, favor lies with Man City.
With 10 games left, a lot is hanging in the balance. But betting in favor of the City would not be the worst wager a punter can place.
Liverpool
There is quite a difference between Manchester City and Liverpool. But with 10 games left in the fixtures, nothing is set in stone. We have seen teams crumble at the last minute, leaving a loophole for those in second and third place to fill. That’s why Liverpool still shows good promise and has considerably high odds.
So, does Jurgen Klopp’s team stand a chance to take over as the reigning champion? Again, matches ahead could affect its position – against Arsenal, Tottenham, and Manchester United. All these are big teams fighting for a better position in the league. And that means they will bring on the heat, ready to take down Liverpool by a notch. Furthermore, Liverpool is set to play against Manchester City, which will not be willing to give its competitor an inch on the field.
What’s the Best Bet?
Liverpool and Manchester City will not meet until 10th April, and there’s no telling what could happen in the weeks preceding their match. If you have already placed a bet in favor of any of these teams, you can stick with it. But if you are yet to put your money where your mouth is, you might want to take some time and wait until the odds are much clearer.
As things stand, City is the better bet, though their odds suffered upon their loss to Tottenham. Liverpool’s odds have been much more stable, but who will tell if this will be the case next week?
