The debate about who will win next season’s Premier League – not to mention the football betting interest – started more or less as soon as the dust had settled on Manchester United’s triumph. However putting bets on it is particularly hard to do with real accuracy this summer, because there has been so much upheaval at the three top clubs – most notably the retirement of Ferguson at United. Interestingly the bookmakers still have the Red Devils as the clear favourites to win it again next time, despite the relative lack of top level experience of Ferguson’s replacement David Moyes, but are they a good bet?
They have a strong squad (although not without weaknesses), but the possible exits of experienced winners like Wayne Rooney and Nemanja Vidic during the summer – alongside the uncertainty over who they will sign – means that their status as favourites could still change. Manchester City were awful last season, but have been given odds of 12/5 by bookmakers, and surely cannot be as poor again. Like United though, they have a new manager in Pellegrini, with no real title winning background – and have already seen Carlos Tevez depart.
Finally Chelsea , also at 12/5 have title winning experience at managerial and playing level, but are an ageing team – and there must be question marks over Mourinho’s ability to have the same effect second time around. Given how uncertain the situation currently is, opting for online casino games instead just now could be the smartest bet.
After all, it’s not as if you can’t combine the online casino part with football, as there are slots games like Soccer Safari at these sites nowadays, which are football all the way. This particular game is a video slot with a jackpot of $8000, which revolves around animals playing football in a sort of jungle World Cup. It is a genuinely amusing and entertaining alternative to standard football betting, superbly brought to life by the graphics, but there are plenty of other football casino games to choose from as well, and you don’t have to be chained to a computer to play them these days – as mobile casino apps let you add them to your phone.
