What are the odds on Liverpool retaining the title?

There were few surprises on Monday, with a striking win for Liverpool and another loss for Fulham – but how much could football spread betting fans have won? It’s the Daily Sports Spread Betting Roundup!

What are the odds on Liverpool retaining the title?
It’s kind of remarkable to think that it took Man City’s heavy loss to Leicester for Liverpool to become favourites to win the title. Well, their status as front runners was more than confirmed on Monday, as they came back from behind to beat Arsenal 3-1.

Against the run of play the Gunners had gone in front via Alexandre Lacazette in the 25th minute. Back the Frenchman at a PGM spread of 13-16, and that’s 9 times your initial stake.

Yet quick as you like Liverpool were level, with a busy Sadio Mane equalising 3 minutes later. Not long after and it was 2-1, Andrew Robertson making up for his mistake that led to Lacazette’s goal as he scored in the 34th minute. Buy him at a PGM spread of 2-4, and you won 30 times your opening bet.

Though they dominated play, the hosts’ 3rd didn’t arrive until the 88th minute, as Diogo Jota scored his debut goal for the club. At a substitute PGM of 6-9, the former Wolves star made you 79 times your original wager.

Sitting 2nd in the league, that result now sees Liverpool odds on to retain their title at 5/6, compared to 21/20 before last night’s fixture. As for the Gunners, their fixed odds on reaching the top 4 have slipped from 13/8 to 15/8.

Who do Liverpool play next? It’s another home visit from Arsenal, this time in the EFL Cup 4th round on Thursday. With the chance of a very different line-up, Spreadex are offering a less robust Liverpool/Arsenal Goal Supremacy spread of 0.4-0.6.

How many points will Fulham win this season?
One of three teams yet to win a point, Fulham continued to show why they were pre-season favourites for the drop as they lost 3-0 at home to Aston Villa.

It seems like Fulham’s defence have actually been getting worse. They conceded after 8 minutes against Arsenal, after 5 against Leeds and then after just 4 minutes last night. Sell a 1st Match Goal spread of 36-39, and Jack Grealish’s opener won you 32 times your initial stake.

Conor Hourihane made it 2-0 in the 15th minute, before Tyrone Mings wrapped things up the other side of half time, scoring in the 48th minute. That meant, despite 3 goals, you needed to sell a Total Goal Minutes spread of 129-139 to win 62 times your original bet from a makeup of 67.

One thing Fulham are good at is picking up yellow cards. They received 6 on Monday; combine that with 3 for Villa, and that’s a Bookings makeup of 90. Buy at 40-44 and you walked away with a 46 times multiplier.

The Cottagers now sit at a lowly Season Points spread of 29-30.5, well behind West Brom at 32.5-34. They’re also still odds on to go down, with their price shifting from 40/85 pre-game to just 1/5.

Who do Fulham play in the EFL Cup 4th round? It’s a Championship play-off rematch with Brentford, one that the Bees are forecast to win at a Brentford/Fulham Goal Supremacy spread of 0.05-0.25.
