Sports Betting: Who Can Stop Man Utd?

Five trophies up for grabs for Man Utd

Bookmakers take bets on who will stop United winning five trophies.

With Manchester United on course to make history by winning five trophies this season, bookmakers are taking bets on which team will halt the Red Devils' march to the quintuple.

Sir Alex Ferguson's side already have two trophies in the bag, with their penalty shootout victory over Tottenham on Sunday (March 1st) adding the Carling Cup to their Club World Cup triumph in December.

Sky Bet has opened a market on which team will manage to spoil the party for Ferguson's men this season, making Fulham a 3/1 bet ahead of their FA Cup quarter-final clash this weekend.

Any other FA Cup side ending United's quintuple dreams is priced at 4/1, while Internazionale are an 11/5 bet.

United face Jose Mourinho's Italian giants in the second leg of their last-16 Champions League tie next Wednesday, with last week's first encounter in Milan finishing goalless.

Ferguson's side are currently four points clear of Chelsea and Liverpool in the Premier League, but could extend that lead to seven with victory at Newcastle United this evening.
