Everton were impressive in beating Wigan away from home 1-0, matched at [5.3] on the match odds market and [9.8] on the correct score market, a match they won courtesy of a Tim Cahill header. That result, alongside Tottenham's inability to hand on to their lead, means that the Toffees aren't quite out of the race for a Top 4 finish. Spurs were 1-0 up going into injury time after a Jermaine Defoe goal but a typically resilient Birmingham performance saw them come back to draw the match 1-1, the stalemate being backed at [15.5] and the away win as low as [1.07
.

It was far easier for another top four contender, Liverpool, who beat Bolton 2-0 after briefly touching ]1.7] on the match odds market. Liverpool are [3.25] to finish the season in a Champions League place, a shade shorter than Aston villa at 4.0, who also won this afternoon when a Gabriel Agbonlahor brace was enough to secure a 2-0 win after they were matched at [3.05].

At the opposite end of the table the 2-2 draw between Hull and Wolves means the former have shortened to 1.7 for the drop whilst Wolves are at the 2.3 mark to go down.
