Leicester new 7-4 Premier League favourites

Leicester are the new favourites at 7-4 with leading bookmaker Coral to win the Premier League title this season following their emphatic victory at the Etihad Stadium this afternoon. Manchester City, who were hammered at home, are second in the betting at 5-2 as they are now six points behind the leaders in the table.

Arsenal are not in action until tomorrow and can be backed at 3-1, while Tottenham, who play later this afternoon, are 11-2 in Coral’s outright market.

“After being as big as 5000-1 at the start of the season, Leicester are the new favourites to win the Premier League title in what would be an incredible story if they were to lift the trophy,” said Coral’s John Hill.

“Several small stake punters could be set to win big on the back of the Foxes’ remarkable campaign, leaving Britain’s bookmakers set for a £50 million industry pay-out,” added Hill.
