It seems the perfect time to start this thread, as there's a little arb on offer

A market I have great interest in (I know Peter Webb does too) is Relegation. The market of Relegation treble sees the 3 promoted clubs Bournemouth, Watford, Norwich priced at 16/1 with Ladbrokes and 14/1 with most others. There's money being asked for at 11/1 on BF exchange

I reckon at least 2 of those teams will go, so I'm tempted at taking Ladbrokes offer and laying off on the Relegation market as the season progresses

I thought Tottenham looked poor - without Kane they have very little up front

Clearly I'm not the only one unimpressed. They have drifted from 1.09 to 1.20 to finish in the Top 10

United looked fairly solid, but one shot on target in the whole 90 mins is an interesting stat

There seems to be money coming for Bournmouth pre match against Villa

Quite a shift in the winner market after just the first set of games, surprising.

Yes, big move on Man City and they haven't even kicked a ball yet

Arsenal got a hard run of fixtures coming up as well so hard to think 6.0 is value yet.

Cech had a bit of a mare yesterday, was at fault for both goals, he might struggle this season. Impressed by my compatriot Bilic who sacrificed their Europa league game to prepare for Arsenal, that was quite an upset and the market reacted accordingly.

I can certainly see the appeal of these longterm markets, it must be nice having a hefty bonus at the end of the season, just in time for holidays :mrgreen:

I never had the time to even look at those markets before but I will try and add this to my portfolio this season.

Y, I love the relegation markets. I think the winner markets are tougher but I'll trade the long term markets all season and it's great to get a bonus in May each year.

These markets do overreact

Man City are now clear favourites for the title after just week 1

WBA on the other hand has seen steady money tonight on them being relegated.......for losing at home to the favourites for the title!

I always believe that's a trader's paradise when people get a bit too excited

Maybe useless stat

Gameweek 1 last year produced a total of 26 goals. 2.6 per game average
This year produced 30 goals. 3 per game average

They were completely hopeless though, so I'm not surprised they are that high. Last year Man City looked weak at the back but Mangala has certainly added some stability there and Kompany looks back to his best so they are deserved favs at this stage IMO. And I think you said it, Man City are easily "the toughest team" at the minute.

Fair amount of money for Bournemouth to spring a surprise at Anfield tonight
