Liverpool are 5/1 with Sky Bet to win the Premier League title. It’s temping me…
I’ll level with you, I spent hours deliberating and toying with the idea of Aston Villa getting a result. But I came to the conclusion it was the journalist in me hoping for the extraordinary story rather than the punter where cold decisions are key. Manchester City are a machine, remember, who have an expert habit of making me look clueless. Not hard, many will argue.
Plus, to cause them issues you need dynamism in high and in wide areas. Heung-Min Son, Wilfried Zaha, Vinicius Jr and Jarrod Bowen all have played big parts in helping their teams get results against City this season.
Villa just don’t have a player of that ilk or speed in wide areas to create those dangerous transitions. I can leave the match and title prices alone and hope for some final day drama, although this is the ninth time that the Premier League title has been decided on the final day and in the previous eight seasons the leader always went on to lift the trophy.
One bet that does jump off the page is Kevin De Bruyne scoring the first goal.
An occasion like this is just made for De Bruyne to cap his best-ever scoring season with another important strike to follow up goals in games against Liverpool (twice), Chelsea, Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid and of course the four goals in the win over Wolves. There is an added ruthlessness to De Bruyne in the second half of the season that is taking him to the cusp of being the greatest Premier League player we have ever seen. He can reinforce that narrative in taking City to a fourth title in the last five seasons.
SCORE PREDICTION: 2-0 | BETTING ANGLE: Kevin de Bruyne to score first (4/1 with Sky Bet – Bet Here!)
