Chelsea’s forty- match unbeaten run in the Premiership came to an end in a titanic 1-0 defeat by arch rivals Manchester United at Old Trafford and has given a glimmer of hope to those teams toiling behind the West London team in the title race.
Previously trading at 1/33 with VC Bet before the Sunday spectacle Chelsea are now available at 1/14 with Manchester United clipped from 12-1 to 9-1 and Arsenal slashed from 25-1 to 12-1.
VC Bet’s Neal Wilkins commented “Manchester United showed a level of commitment on Sunday that has been lacking in their recent games. Chelsea have won only one of their last five matches but Jose Mourinho was as graceless as ever in defeat when stating “United won but did not deserve to”. Perhaps after a season and half opposition managers are realising the way to play Chelsea is with the standard 4-4-2 formation to negate the strengths of John Terry coming forward. The result will give some hope to the chasing pack and kept the Premiership door open –albeit very slightly”.
