Joe Dyer reports on derby day in the Premier League
Birmingham trade at [2.3] to be relegated on Betfair following a 5-1 hammering at the hands of city rivals Aston Villa today.
Aside from Fulham, who are [1.05] to go down, Birmingham are rated the most likely team to be playing Championship football next season. Bolton can be backed at [2.8] and Reading at [3.5].
Six goals or more traded at [38.0] on the exchange during the rout, while under 4.5 was backed at [1.06]. The any unquoted scoreline was backed at [18.5].
With three games left Villa are trading at [3.55] to win the Premier League in betting without the 'Big Four'.
Newcastle and Sunderland are firmly mid-table of course but that will mean nothing to Toon fans celebrating their 2-0 victory today.
A Michael Owen first-half double sealed the points for Kevin Keegan's men and helped to land bets at [14.0] on the exchange.
Some Betfair customers were clearly expecting goals - after Owen's second more than 2.5 was matched at [1.25].
Manchester City traded at a high of [38.0] to win 3-1 during the 4pm kick-off against Portsmouth.
