All the Premier League fixtures wrapped up by Joe Dyer

Newcastle have hit a new low in Betfair's relegation market after a 3-0 loss at Liverpool today. The Geordies currently trade at [4.5] to go down at the season's end following another Premier League trouncing.

Another team in freefall is Alan Curbishley's West Ham who were beaten 4-0 for the third game in succession, this time by Tottenham.

Under 3.5 goals was backed at [1.01] on Betfair for more than £5,000 only for Darren Bent to score with almost the last touch of the game.

That goal netted one punter a winning bet at [60.0] on Betfair. That price was matched to small sums on 'Any Unquoted' in the correct score market.

Liverpool ambushed Kevin Keegan's team with late goals in the first half from Jermaine Pennant and Fernando Torres - the halftime scoreline of 0-0 was backed at 1.16 and 2-0 at 16.

Fulham are [1.27] to be playing Championship football next year despite rescuing a point from their fixture at Blackburn.

Rovers traded at [1.08] for the win before Jimmy Bullard levelled matters with a late free-kick. The draw was backed [14.5] and under 1.5 goals at [1.26].

Dave Kitson's late second goal for Reading rewarded scoreline backers who took odds of 20 on a 2-0 home victory over Manchester City.
