Premier League title odds: Manchester City at biggest price since season started

2023-24 Premier League title odds and betting updates

Manchester City’s odds of winning the Premier League for an unprecedented fourth time are at the highest since the season began.

Pep Guardiola’s side led Crystal Palace 2-0 with a quarter of an hour to go, but Jean-Philippe Mata pulled one back from close range and Michael Olise converted a penalty deep into stoppage time to secure a dramatic 2-2 draw at the Etihad.

City were 4/5 in the Premier League title odds after last week’s 2-1 comeback win at Luton but they head to Saudi Arabia for the Club World Cup at 11/8 to finish top of the pile.

Manchester City

City were heading for back-to-back wins on Saturday afternoon, but Olise’s spot-kick in the fifth minute of added time left the champions trailing leaders Arsenal by five points.

With City not in Premier League action until their trip to Everton on December 27, the gap will be extended further when the top two, Liverpool and Arsenal, meet at Anfield on Saturday.

City face Sheffield United, Newcastle and Burnley after their trip to Goodison Park, so the opportunity is there to make ground on the leading pack, but they cannot afford too many more slip-ups.

Premier League title odds: 11/8

Arsenal

The Gunners moved back to the top of the table with Sunday’s victory over Brighton which saw their title odds cut from 7/2 to 12/5.

Goals from Gabriel Jesus and Kai Havertz secured a 2-0 win against the Seagulls and with Liverpool failing to beat arch rivals Manchester United, Mikel Arteta’s men have the opportunity to top the table at Christmas.

However, they travel to Liverpool on Saturday where a defeat coupled with a win for Aston Villa against Sheffield United would see them drop to third place.

The Gunners have three successive London derbies against West Ham, Fulham and Crystal Palace after their trip to Merseyside, with momentum growing that this could be their season.

Premier League title odds: 12/5

Liverpool

The Reds have been trimmed to 11/4 from 3/1 despite failing to win at home for the first time this season.

Jurgen Klopp’s side had eight shots on target compared with United’s one on Sunday, but in reality created very few clear-cut chances.

They will return to the top of the Premier League table if they beat Arsenal this weekend which they follow with trips to Burnley and Bournemouth either side of a home game against Newcastle.

Premier League title odds: 11/4

Aston Villa

Villa’s odds on a first top-flight title since 1981 continue to drop after they fought back to win 2-1 at Brentford in a feisty game which saw both teams receive red cards.

Unai Emery’s side are now just a point off top spot and they will hit the peak should they beat Sheffield United at home, where they are on a club record 15-game winning run in the Premier League, combined with a draw between Liverpool and Arsenal.

Villa were 14/1 for the title last week, but are now 11/1 ahead of their trip to Old Trafford on Boxing Day before they conclude 2023 with a home game against struggling Burnley.

Premier League title odds: 11/1

Best of the rest

Tottenham remain in the picture at 25/1 in the Premier League title odds after making it back-to-back wins with a 2-0 victory at Nottingham Forest on Friday night which has left them five points off top spot.

Newcastle have drifted to 200/1 from 80/1 despite beating 10-man Fulham 3-0 at the weekend, a game which saw their injury crisis worsen with both Joelinton and Fabian Schar substituted with muscle problems.

Manchester United are out to 250/1 from 150/1 despite holding Liverpool to a goalless draw at Anfield where Diogo Dalot was sent off in the closing stages for two petulant acts of dissent.

Chelsea remain 500/1 for the title following a 2-0 victory over Sheffield United, but Brighton are out to 750/1 after defeat at the Emirates left them 13 points off the pace.
