The surprises keep on coming in the English top flight, with everybody apart from leaders Liverpool struggling for consistency.
Last weekend saw Manchester City suffer back-to-back league losses for the first time since October 2023, allowing Arne Slot’s Liverpool to take an even firmer grip of the title race, and Arsenal's winless Premier League run extended to four games with a 1-1 draw at Chelsea, leaving Mikel Arteta’s side nine points adrift of the in-form Reds.

Liverpool @ 2.25
Establishing a healthy lead at the top has brought Liverpool’s title odds crashing down.
The Reds have racked up nine wins from 11 games and seem to be rising to the challenge of more difficult fixtures.
Slot’s side seem to have the handy knack of winning games without being at their best but there was nothing fortunate about their 2-0 success over Aston Villa, which was orchestrated by a goal and an assist from their star player, Mohamed Salah.
Liverpool have some huge games coming up but they have given themselves a nice cushion and can approach the next period with plenty of confidence.
Man City @ 3.25
City’s problems worsened with a 2-1 loss at Brighton and the markets reacted by nudging Pep Guardiola’s side out to second-favourites in the title race.
Losing Rodri to a long-term injury was a massive blow but there are many other areas of concern for the Citizens, who have established a losing habit.
The Citizens have a history of coming on strong in the second half of the season but there is a danger of them falling further adrift in the weeks ahead and leaving themselves an insurmountable mountain to climb.
They have some tough games on the remainder of their 2024 schedule, including trips to Liverpool and Aston Villa and a mid-December derby at home to Manchester United.
Arsenal @ 3.50
Arsenal were the market leaders not so long ago but they have since slipped to third in the betting, and with good reason after a run of four Premier League games without a victory.
The Gunners secured a respectable 1-1 draw away to Chelsea on Sunday, but the gap between themselves and Liverpool was extended to nine points over the weekend and heaped added pressure on Arteta, who has been tested by a raft of injuries to key players.
However, Martin Odegaard returned to the side at Stamford Bridge and his influence could be key as Arsenal prepare for a more favourable run of fixtures.
Chelsea @ 15.00
Chelsea have not contended for the title in recent seasons but they are emerging as a team to watch.
Enzo Maresca has made a positive start in the Blues’ hotseat and his team are likely to improve as the season progresses.
The Blues have more depth than most and that could be key with the schedule getting busier in the next few months..
How Does Premier League Winner Betting Work?
Betting on which team is going to win the Premier League is extremely popular in the UK and is easy to understand.
You are simply betting on who is going to finish first in the Premier League and lift the trophy this season.
Winning bets are paid out either on the final day of the season, when the league standings have been finalised, or when the team at the top have mathematically secured the title.
That means no other team can catch them or take the top position away from them due to the amount of games remaining and, in turn, the number of points that can be won.
It is a simple and fun way of betting on the outcome of the Premier League and can sometimes return major profits. In 2016, when Leicester claimed a shock title triumph, one bettor secured a memorable payout having backed the Foxes at odds of 5001/00.
