Premier League on Betfair: More misery for Redknapp as QPR stare relegation in the face

 

Everton recorded a regulation win over Harry Redknapp's Queens Park Rangers, while Arsenal managed to turn Norwich over after going a goal down...

 

Harry Redknapp's Queens Park Rangers side look condemned to the Championship next season after being put to the sword 2-0 by a solid Everton performance at Goodison Park, a score matched at 9.0 on Betfair.

 

Darron Gibson opened the scoring for the home side, a goal that was matched at a chunky 36.0, before Victor Anichebe made sure of the points early in the second half. QPR are now down to just 1.04 to be relegated, and sit seven points adrift of safety, one more adrift than when Redknapp took over the reins at the club. What's more, Wigan have two games in hand over them owing to their FA Cup commitments. After this win, Everton's odds of finishing in the Top Four have now been reduced to 9.6.

 

Arsenal survived an early scare at the Emirates. Going down 0-1 to a Michael Turner goal (something matched at a colossal 110.0 on Betfair), they managed to turn things around and eventually ran out 3-1 winners thanks to goals from Mikel Arteta, Olivier Giroud and Lukas Podolski. Arsenal are now hugely fancied to finish in a vital Champions League place and their odds of doing so now sit at just 1.32.

 

Aston Villa moved another point closer to safety thanks to a Charles N'Zogbia goal against Fulham. The Frenchman was matched at 17.0 to be first goalscorer at Villa Park and duly stepped up with a curling shot early in the second half. It was cancelled out by a Fabian Delph own goal ten minutes later, but QPR's defeat means Villa are now three points from the drop zone and 4.8 to be relegated.

 

In the Premier League's two other games this afternoon, Reading and Liverpool thrashed out a 0-0 draw, a result matched at 28.0 in the Correct Score market and Southampton were held 1-1 by West Ham at St Mary's. Liverpool can now be backed at 3.35 for a top six finish on the Betfair Exchange.
