Last day relegation mayhem

I must admit to quite liking relegation markets. On top of my Southampton bet, I had a nibble at West Brom to be relegated, their escape look totally improbable. Today we have a whole multitude of opportunities.

Based upon past experience, backing or laying the field will throw up a bundle of opportunities as the afternoon progresses. You can see Newcastle and Middlesbrough perhaps getting something out of their games but Hull? If Hull hold on or even take the lead the market could shape up significantly differently. We also have the added interest of what team Man Utd will field given the proximity of the champions league final. Keep an eye out on the match odds market when the team is announced. Last night Barcelona fielded a weakened team against Osasuna, I reckon that Ferguson will follow suit.

Middlesbrough need a miracle, especially given their track record. An away win by four clear goals at West Ham would see them have some chance of safety. But with the relegation market priced at 1.03 their fall from grace looks almost sealed. That is effectively pricing in a 97% chance of that result not occurring. If you thing they have a better than 3% chance of a pulling off an away win of four goals or more you can lay. But I have to say at 33’s that doesn’t look a lay to me!
