Man United v Fulham Preview, Odds and Betting
3rd December, 2007
As the race for the Premier League top spots heats up, the ‘Big Four’ have emerged at the top of the table, with Manchester United in action tonight against Fulham at Old Trafford.
Wayne Rooney returns to the starting line up after three-matches out through injury. After the shock 1-0 defeat to Bolton last week and Arsenal extending their lead at the op with three points over Villa, United cannot afford another slip up. A win would take them back up to second, above Chelsea and Liverpool.
Although Louis Saha says he is now ‘injury free’, it is likely he will be dropped so that Rooney and Tevez can continue their blossoming partnership. Ronaldo will play, probably with Giggs preferred over Nani.
The West London side have won only two of their last 44 away matches in the league, the last one coming over a year ago at Newcastle United, so it is no surprise they are huge underdogs for the game.
United are an amazingly short 1/6 with most bookies, whilst Fulham are a huge 18/1 with Bet 365. The draw may attract some punters at 6/1 also at Bet 365. If you are looking for more value, Over 2.5 goals is paying at about 8/13 and Man Utd -2 (asian handicap) is available at just better than evens.
