With three points between Man Utd and Chelsea and with a matching goal difference next week’s clash is a de-facto title decider. Man Utd would be happy with a draw as this would still leave them with a 3 points lead and two relatively easy fixtures to go.

However momentum seems to be with Chelsea and apart from their recent Champions League’s Torres induced blip at the venue, they have had an impressive record recently at Old Trafford. They won the same fixture last year to replace the Manchester club at the top of the league where they remained until they were crowned champions at the end of the season. With the above in mind, the odds offered on Betfair of Chelsea ending as champions again at 4.42 do seem to represent good value.

Chelsea’s early season supremacy in hindsight might just traspire to be a case of flat track bullying, with the sole exception of their 2-0 home win over Arsenal, they seem to have been found wanting during their sterner tests so far. Their odds accordingly have drifted out to 1.67.

Man Utd who a couple of weeks ago appeared to be on the point of meltdown, are still unbeaten in all competitions since the opening day of the season and although their performances thus far, have not been convincing, they are only two points behind the Blues.

Although this Wednesday’s derby is pivotal to both Manchester United and Manchester City. A few weeks ago, during the Rooney contract re-negotiation saga, the significance of the result would have been seen as crucial to restoring pride in the red part of Manchester, it has now gathered greater signifigance for Mancini, who might feel that he is only a couple of defeats away from the exit door, after their recent blip. One thing is for sure, the league over the past two seasons has become refreshingly unpredictable.

Man Utd’s days as perennial challengers seem to be drawing to an end.

Arsenal at 9.00 appear to be much better value, however as in the past four to five years you are always under the impression that they flatter to deceive.

Although it pains me to say it, I do feel that Man City would be Chelsea’s greatest challengers this season and at 7.46 they seem to be good value.

So now you can have the latest betting odds live every week on the Premiership’s Champions, relegation battle and top marksman.
