Manchester City have returned to the top of the Premier League winner market following Liverpool dropping two points in a 2-2 draw against Manchester United at Old Trafford on Sunday afternoon.

Pep Guardiola's men had to come from a goal down at Selhurst Park, but eventually won 4-2 against the Eagles thanks to a player of the match performance from Kevin de Bruyne.

Liverpool left frustrated

Liverpool, who just seven days ago went favourites for the title themselves, are now the third favourites in the market in what is shaping up to be a fascinating race to win the Premier League.

Jurgen Klopp's men looked in complete control at Old Trafford, leading the Red Devils 1-0 at the break thanks to a Luis Diaz goal.

United failed to register a single shot in the first half and could have trailed the Reds by at least a few goals at the break, but early in the second half they were gifted an equaliser when an errant Jarell Quansah pass fell to Bruno Fernandes who lifted the ball home from distance.

Kobbie Mainoo then put United in front midway through the second half thanks to a brilliant finish form just outside the box, but they couldn't hang on for the victory, Mo Salah equalising from the penalty spot approaching full-time.

Liverpool are out to 3.613/5 on the Betfair Exchange in the Premier League Winner market.
