It was the sort of football match that in-play traders on Betfair dream about after Everton traded at 1.12 and the draw at a high of 11 as David Moyes' side ended up drawing 3-3 away to Aston Villa..

Twice Everton led by two goals, twice they were pegged back by a resilient Villa.

Goals from Fellaini and Cahill meant Everton went into the break leading 2-1, with the away side backed at a high of [5.3 ]to be up at the interval. Layers of Everton at short prices had a good day but that was nothing compared to those who predicted there would be six goals or more in the game, matched at [50.0], or those who guessed that 3-3 would be the final scoreline, matched at [230.0].

Fulham's 3-1 victory over Manchester City may not have had the significance of last year's at almost exactly the same stage of the season, but those who backed Roy Hodgson's side to prevail at odds of 15 in-running on Betfair won't be too bothered either way. They drifted to this price after going a goal down at which point Man City were being backed at [1.39], but hit back with three of their own.

Last year's 3-2 win from two goals down was the result that instigated an incredible recovery that saw Fulham beat the drop on the last day of the season and the match itself saw Fulham matched at some of the highest winning odds ever on a Premier League match on Betfair. It was 3-1 this time and that was matched at rather large odds of [190.0].
