Reds inches away from title, Martial hat-trick

Liverpool take one giant leap towards the title, Anthony Martial gets the first post-restart hat-trick, and Inter Milan tie in 3-3 San Siro thriller – it’s the Daily Spread Betting Roundup. But how much could you’ve won?

Reds move within 2 points of title – Liverpool v Crystal Palace
That’s more like it! After a rusty performance at Goodison Park, Liverpool showed why they are the champions-elect on Wednesday night, thumping Crystal Palace 4-0 in an utterly dominant display.

Trent Alexander-Arnold – the Reds’ player of the season according to a Spreadex study – opened scoring in the 23rd minute, with his 2nd Premier League goal from a free kick. Buy the youngster at a Free Kick PGM of 1-3, and that’s 20 times your initial bet.

Mohamed Salah was next up, bagging his 17th league goal of the season in the 44th minute. That was late enough to still make you 7 times your original stake from a high starting Salah PGM of 34-37.

With only his 2nd goal of 2019/20, Fabinbo made it 3 in the 55th minute, meaning anyone who bought the Brazilian at a tiny PGM of 1-3 made 52 time their opening wager.

Not wanting to be left out, Sadio Mane rounded things off in the 69th minute. If you’d backed him at a starting PGM of 28-31, that’s 38 times your initial stake.

That score line also meant buying a chunky Liverpool/Crystal Palace Goal Supremacy spread of 1.55-1.75 still left you with 2.25 times your original bet.

All they need now is for City to drop points against Chelsea – at 8.15pm on BT Sport 1 – and the title is theirs.

Martial gets 1st post-restart hat-trick – Man United v Sheffield United
Strengthening their hopes of a spot in next season’s Champions League, while leaving the Blades with a tough route to Europe, Man United beat Sheffield 3-0 on Wednesday courtesy of an Anthony Martial hat-trick.

With goals in the 7th, 44th and 74th minutes, his SMM makeup came in at a robust 317, against a starting price of 27-32. Back the Frenchman at the start of the game, then, and you won 285 times your original wager.

Thriller at the San Siro – Inter Milan v Sassuolo
Wednesday’s 3-3 draw between Inter Milan and Sassuolo – further damaging the former’s hopes of reigniting their title challenge – is the kind of game spread betters dream of.

Converted spot-kicks from Romelu Lukaku, in the 41st minute, and Domenico Berardi, in the 81st, led to a Penalty SMMs makeup of 203. Buy at a starting price of 28-34, and that’s 169 times your initial stake.

A spate of goals in the closing 10 minutes of the game, meanwhile, pushed the Total Goal Minutes market to 346 against a starting spread of 147-157. That’s a potential 189 times your opening bet.

Best of all, with shirt numbers adding up to 129 – thank no. 25 Berardi, no. 32 Giangiacomo Magnani and no. 34 Cristiano Biraghi for that – the Goals x Shirts makeup came in at 774. Buy at 161-179, and you could have won a massive 595 times your original stake.
