Will the Manchester Clubs Extend Their Lead in Week 9 – Sporting Geezer

It doesn’t seem a few weeks ago since the new Premier League season started but we are already heading into week 9 of the campaign and things are taking shape at the top of the table.

Manchester City lead the way and have been scoring goals for fun, so it is little surprise to see them currently priced at 2/5 with William Hill to win the 2017/18 Premier League title. This weekend Pep Guardiola’s team welcome Burnley to the Etihad Stadium.

Burnley have lost just one match in the Premier League this season, are undefeated in their last six games and have improved a lot away from home compared to the previous campaign. However, Manchester City are full of confidence and playing on another level this season, making them huge favourites to win this match at 1/12 with Bet365. It appears the only debate is about how many goals they will score and Manchester City to score 3 or more goals is 4/9 at Coral.

Second place Manchester United will travel to Huddersfield in the hope of keeping pace at the top of the table with their neighbours.
