Manchester City have no doubt won the EPL according to online bookmaker sportsbet with a skinny offer of $1.02 for them to be crowned champions on Monday morning.
In what has been described as the greatest premier league season ever, the Citizens were as large as $8.00 three weeks ago following their defeat to closest rivals Liverpool.
Liverpool themselves opened the season at $26 and stood at $1.12 following their triumph over City at Anfield before collapsing in their hunt for a first league title since 1990 – they now stand at $15 with one game to go.
Liverpool need to beat Newcastle ($1.20) and hope that West Ham record at stunning victory against City ($17) to win their 19th league title.
City need just a draw at home against West Ham to secure the title, unless Liverpool were to go and beat Newcastle by 13 goals – that’s a $5001 shot!
“Steven Gerrard’s words of ‘we go again’ have become famous but who could have imagined that Liverpool would slip up and have to go again next season to try end that 24 year wait,” saidsportsbet.com.au’s Will Byrne.
