If the bookies latest odds are anything to go by, Newcastle United are now big favourites to seal a top-four finish alongside Manchester United.
It’ll be a big weekend in the Premier League – we travel to Brentford, Man Utd face Everton in the early kick-off, Spurs and Brighton meet in North London and Liverpool welcome top of the table Arsenal to Anfield.
It could be another opportunity to steal a march on our rivals, as one of Spurs and Brighton will drop points, while Liverpool would be all but out of the Champions League race if Arsenal beat them on Sunday.
This is how Sky Bet see the it heading into the final six weeks of the 2022/23 season:
- Man Utd – 1/4 (1.25)
- Newcastle – 2/7 (1.29)
- Tottenham – 3/1 (4.00)
- Brighton – 9/2 (5.50)
- Liverpool – 5/1 (6.00)
- Aston Villa – 80/1 (81.00)
It’s been a huge week for us. While we’ve picked up six points with big wins over Man Utd and West Ham, both Spurs and Liverpool have managed just a point, extending our lead over both.
Brighton are ones to watch; they actually have one game in hand on us and could move four points behind us if they won that, with a game at St James’ Park to come. However, it’s looking very, very good from a Newcastle perspective and the bookies odds reflect that.
Here’s the Premier League table heading into this weekend’s fixtures:
That’s a big price for Brighton 9/2 if you fancy a punt!
