Latest Premier League Odds: Liverpool Stunned and Bore Draw in Manchester Derby

Liverpool weren't at the races when they faced Fulham, and a derby day draw took place between the Manchester clubs. This and more in the latest PL odds recap.

Lacklustre Liverpool Well-Beaten by Fulham

League leaders Liverpool were stunned by Fulham at Craven Cottage on Sunday. Many Reds may have expected a routine win for the soon-to-be champions, but this wasn't to be the case.

Fulham responded to Alexis McAllister's strike with three quickfire goals of their own in the first half, which left Arne Slot's side with a mountain too tall to climb. Ryan Sessegnon, Rodrigo Muniz, and former Everton man Alex Iwobi helped the Cottagers to a surprising but well-earned victory. 

Liverpool players and fans alike will still feel confident in securing the league title, but will hope to do so while maintaining the significant gap they've created between themselves and second place. They are 1/66 to win the league title.

Uninspiring Arsenal Earn Single Point at Everton

Second-placed and closest challengers Arsenal did little this weekend in terms of putting pressure on Liverpool. Arsenal were able to give more minutes to both Bukayo Saka and Martin Odegaard, but neither was able to make any significant impact as the Gunners drew 1-1 with Everton.

Leandro Trossard struck first for the visitors before youngster Myles Lewis-Skelly stumbled into Jack Harrison inside the penalty area, with the resulting spot kick coolly dispatched by Iliman Ndiaye on his full return to Premier League action.

On return to his former club, Mikel Arteta had to settle for a draw, meaning just one point was gained on Liverpool. The Gunners are 28/1 to win the Premier League.

Aston Villa Secure Big Win Over Nottingham Forest

Nottingham Forest and Aston Villa went head-to-head, with both teams battling it out to secure European places for next season. Unfortunately for Forest, the Villains were able to secure the three points as they look to crash into a heated race for the top four spots. Their win sees them placed at 11/1 to be one of the teams occupying a top-four position come the end of the season.

On the end of a big defeat, Nottingham Forest still have a cushion between them and fifth place and is still currently in third. While demoralising, the Trees must pick themselves up and make sure they do enough to stay in the Champions League spots and make a historic return to the competition. They're 4/7 to do so.

Chelsea Unable to Cement Top Four Place

Chelsea's goalless draw away at Brentford will feel like a missed opportunity for Blues fans as their side looked to further secure their place in the top four spots. A win would have left them in a much more comfortable position, but the door was left open for a few teams to start breathing down their necks. The draw sees Chelsea placed at 6/4 to make the top four. 

Manchester City made the short trip to Old Trafford to face rivals Manchester United on Sunday. Both teams have endured torrid campaigns, and this was played out in the game. Neither side mustered up any real chances, and the game ended 0-0. A dull watch for all involved, and a solitary point earned by the Cityzens made them 4/5 to make the top four. 

Ipswich Suffer Potentially Killer Blow at the Hands of Wolves

Ipswich faced Wolves in a six-pointer at the wrong end of the table. A win for Ipswich would have seen them reduce the deficit between them and the safe zone to just six points, but instead, it rose to twelve points. Vitor Pereira seems to have successfully guided his team to safety, and his team are 66/1 to make the drop.

It's difficult to see a way back for Ipswich. The Tractor Boys have given the Premier League a good go but may have come up short. Many will argue they came up ahead of schedule and that staying in the Premier League was a tough ask; nonetheless, they are looking unlikely to be in their next season. They're 1/40 to go back down to the Championship. 

Southampton's Relegation Confirmed 

Elsewhere, Southampton's relegation from the Premier League was mathematically confirmed after Spurs beat them 3-1. There is a chance that they could go down as the worst Premier League team of all time, so avoiding that is all they have left to play for. 

Premier League Sack Race Update

Ivan Juric has already left his post and relinquished his duties as Southampton manager, following confirmation of their relegation. It was a tough task when he took over, and there are probably few managers who could've done a substantially better job than the Croat, but his tenure at the Saints was unlikely to continue next season anyway. 

Van Nistelrooy Struggles Continue As Leicester Boss

Speaking of relegation, Leicester are likely the next team whose relegation will be confirmed. Ruud van Nistelrooy cannot manage to win a game of football, let alone score a goal. The only question that remains with the Foxes is if they are going to give the Dutchman a chance in the Championship.

Ipswich To Stick With McKenna?

The third side looking likely to be relegated is Ipswich. General consensus surrounding their gaffer, Kieran McKenna, is that he's done the best job he can with a squad not quite up to Premier League standards. He'll probably be the man to lead Ipswich out next season, regardless of where they're playing their football.

Salah Off the Mark in Liverpool Defeat

Mohamed Salah failed to register a shot on target in the Reds' defeat at Craven Cottage and, as such, did not add any more goals to his tally. Still, he is six ahead in the charts. He's 1/80 to win the Premier League golden boot.

Alexander Isak didn't score in Newcastle's comprehensive win over Leicester. Isak is 33/1 to win the Golden Boot.
