It's back once again! The football season ![]()
After the first weekend of Premiership football has just passed, Chelsea have already opened up a two-point gap over Man Utd, however how long this will last is another question. I’m quite interested in sport betting and I’m deciding which of the two teams to place a bet on to win the Premiership title this season.

Man Utd are consistently strong, having won the championship a record 10 times since its origination in 1992 and having not finished outside the top 2 for the past three seasons. Chelsea, on the other hand, have only came into the fray in the past few years, since being taken-over by a super-rich Russian oil tycoon who ploughed his wealth into the club and allowed them to buy such stars as Petr Cech, Michael Essien and Didier Drogba. Abramovich (Chelsea’s owner) has had 4 managers since he took over, those being Claudio Ranieri, Jose Mourinho, Avram Grant and more recently Luiz Felipe Scolari. Such disruption might work against them, but then again a fresh-face might see them win the title having failed for two successive seasons.
I’m going to be adventurous and plump for Chelsea this season. I think Scolari is the breath of fresh air that the club needs and with Ronaldo out of action for the first few months of Man Utd’s season, they might not pick up enough points early on to keep the gap between them and Chelsea small enough to close.
What do you think will happen this season?
