Sports Betting: Title Odds Lengthened For Chelsea

Chelsea's title odds lengthened at football betting firms.

Chelsea's 0-0 draw with Everton last night (December 22nd) has seen football betting firms lengthen the odds on the west London side winning the Premier League.

William Hill moved Chelsea out from evens to 11/10 favourites following the result, which leaves Luiz Felipe Scolari's team one point behind leaders Liverpool in second place.

Chelsea were frustrated by a spirited Everton side at Goodison Park, with John Terry sent off for a lunge on Leon Osman in the 35th minute.

However, Scolari's side remain unbeaten away from home in the Premier League this season and William Hill offers 8/1 on that record remaining intact until the end of the campaign.

After the game against West Bromwich Albion at Stamford Bridge on Boxing Day, Chelsea's next away fixture is a derby clash with Fulham on Sunday (December 28th).

The bookmaker prices Manchester United at 13/8 for the title, with Liverpool available at 4/1 and Arsenal 16/1.
