Sherwood strongly fancied for Palace post
TIM SHERWOOD is trading at 8-15 to become the new manager of Crystal Palace after a major gamble on the former Tottenham boss to succeed Tony Pulis at Selhurst Park.
Sherwood had been 14-1 for the job immediately after Pulis’ departure but he was well backed over the weekend and hardened to odds-on favouritism. Malky Mackay is a 2-1 chance with Hills.
After Manchester United’s shock home defeat to Swansea on Saturday, bet365 go 16-1 that the Red Devils lose seven or more league games at Old Trafford this season.
They lost seven times at home in 2013-14 but they are 20-1 to remain unbeaten on their own patch for the remainder of this league campaign.
The Court of Arbitration for Sport has rejected Legia Warsaw’s appeal against their disqualification from the Champions League, leaving Celtic to prepare for Wednesday’s playoff first leg against Maribor.
The Hoops are 1-2 to qualify for the group stage.
