Beaten Leicester 15-8 to suffer relegation
THE seriousness of Leicester’s plight was highlighted as the Premier League champions were beaten 2-0 at Swansea and are just 15-8 to be relegated.
First-half goals from Alfie Mawson and Martin Olsson condemned Claudio Ranieri’s side to their 14th defeat of the season.
It’s now five league losses on the spin for the Foxes, who have failed to score a top-flight goal in six attempts in 2017 and they are one point above the drop zone.
Ranieri’s side have failed to win a Premier League away game this term and bet365 are 9-4 that statistic continues all season.
Chelsea have been eased to 1-6 to win the Premier League title after the leaders were held to a 1-1 draw at Burnley with Robbie Brady’s free kick cancelling out Pedro’s opener.
Manchester City have the opportunity to move up to second and narrow the gap at the summit to eight points if they can beat Bournemouth on Monday and Pep Guardiola’s side are 6-4 favourites in the betting without Chelsea.
City head a competitive market which saw 5-1 shots Liverpool become the big weekend movers after beating Tottenham 2-0.
The elite clubs were kept apart in the William Hill Scottish Cup quarter-final draw with favourites Celtic welcoming St Mirren to Parkhead in the last eight.
Rangers, who edged out Morton 2-1 in Graeme Murty’s first match in charge since Mark Warburton’s departure, will host Dunfermline or Hamilton.
William Hill Scottish Cup quarter-final draw: Aberdeen v Partick, Celtic v St Mirren, Hearts or Hibs v Ayr Utd or Clyde, Rangers v Dunfermline or Hamilton.
