Premier League top four race - Punters and bookies react to stunning Newcastle United win nufc epl
In reaction to the latest results, no surprise that Newcastle United are now seen as in such a powerful position. Winning seven of their last eight games and next up at home to rock bottom Southampton.
If there is to be a shock, then Man U looking a little more likely to be the victim. Only three wins in their last seven PL matches and next up they have Villa home, then Brighton away. The Seagulls maybe suffering a real hangover from their Wembley defeat when going down 3-1 at Forest despite taking the lead. Brighton now have three at home in a row against Wolves, Man U and Everton, which gives them a perfect opportunity to get in amongst it. They probably have to get maximum points in that trio of games, as they then have to play Arsenal and Newcastle away in the following two games.
Liverpool are talked about as potentially winning all their remaining matches but after getting lucky and edging home 3-2 against Nottingham Forest, they did the same at West Ham in midweek. A shocking VAR / refereeing incident denied the Hammers a very obvious late penalty which could / would have made it 2-2. Liverpool now have three home games in a row against Spurs, Fulham and Brentford, where if they do win all three, then they could well have to be taken seriously.
Spurs regained some pride with a fightback to 2-2 against Man U last night, whilst Villa crawled to a 1-0 win over Fulham in midweek, neither side though looking likely to impact those Premier League top four spots. Although Villa may claim otherwise if winning at Old Trafford on Saturday.
