Press release -
Chelsea a huge hit with Betclic punters as the Premier League gets set for kick-off.
With the Premier League getting underway tomorrow online bookmaker Betclic has seen a huge wave of bets coming in support of Chelsea for the title. Andre Villas Boas is now the man at the helm at Stamford Bridge and after his success with Porto last year punters have backed him to repeat it with the west London club.
- “A lot of our Portuguese customers saw the success AVB had and obviously think he can reproduce it in the Premiership,” says Betclic Football Trader Nicholas Balfour.
Alongside Chelsea, the other favourites for the title are Manchester United. Sir Alex Ferguson’s side have also been well backed on Betclic.com to claim their 20th league title.
In other markets, Liverpool have attracted a lot of interest with the Betclic punters. Kenny Dalglish’s men have missed out on Champions league football for the past two season but after heavily investing in the squad many customers have backed them to finish in the top four this year.
There has also been a lot of attention for Luis Suarez to become top goal scorer. The Uraguayan finished last season in the goals and many have backed him to continue that form this season.
At the other end of the table there has not been much support for the newly promoted teams. Swansea and Norwich are both favourites with Betclic for relegation and there has been some money come in for both sides.
