Ronaldo scores again to help 5.0 Man Utd beat Arsenal, whilst Torres and Gerrard net at Anfield to virtually secure Top 4 spot for Liverpool

Manchester United are now just [1.18] on Betfair for the Premiership title, the lowest they have been all season, after being matched at [5.0] to beat Arsenal.

Adebayor, a [10.5] chance to open the scoring, put the Gunners ahead but that man Cristiano Ronaldo (2.64 to score) and Owen Hargreaves both scored to turn the match on its head. Over 2.5 goals had drifted to [4.9] before Adebayor's opener and half time/full time was backed at [5.9].

Three goals in the last 10 minutes of Liverpool's clash with Blackburn meant that backers of the 3-1 scoreline at odds of [220.0] will have a few spare quid with which to back their favourite golfer as the US Masters comes to a close later on tonight. The late flurry of goals also caught the total goals layers off guard, who offered prices up to [150.0] on there being 4 or more goals in the match.

Liverpool drifted to [2.08] before Steven Gerrard eventually got Benitez's side off the mark. With Everton dropping two points at Birmingham yesterday, Liverpool are now just [1.04] to finish in the Top Four, having been matched at a high of [1.99].
