Premier League on Betfair: Arsenal 7/1 for title after win at Leeds and Man City loss

• Arsenal 8.07/1 for title after win at Leeds
• Man City still strong favs despite Liverpool defeat
• Tottenham enjoy best start for nearly 60 years
• Forest long odds-on for relegation after defeat to Wolves

Arsenal are available to back at 8.07/1 to win the Premier League title after they won a controversial game 1-0 at Leeds while defending champions Manchester City lost 1-0 at Liverpool in a hugely entertaining affair.

Bukayo Saka was the Gunners' match winner, finishing superbly 10 minutes before the interval, but in a fiery contest Mikel Arteta's men were thankful for a second half Patrick Bamford penalty miss to claim all three points.

Arsenal are four points clear of Manchester City and have to play Southampton and Nottingham Forest in their next two league games, giving them a great opportunity to record 11 wins from 12 in the Premier League this season.

Man City's unbeaten record came to an end at Anfield when they went down 1-0 to the Reds, courtesy of a second half Mo Salah goal.

Pep Guardiola's men remain favourites to win the title at 1.3130/100 ahead of Arsenal, with Chelsea - who won 2-0 at Aston Villa on Sunday afternoon - third favourites at 27.026/1. Liverpool can be backed at 29.028/1.

Tottenham record best start since 1963

There were only four games in the Premier League on Saturday but they all impacted Betfair's Exchange markets at either the top or bottom end of the table.

Tottenham are 34.033/1 in the Premier League Winner market after securing a dogged 2-0 win at home to Everton.

The Toffees set out to frustrate the hosts from the outset but just before the hour mark Antonio Conte's men made the breakthrough when Harry Kane fired home a penalty after being brought down by Jordan Pickford.

Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg sealed the victory with a late second meaning Spurs have now made their best start to a league season since the 1963-64 campaign.

Ahead of Sunday's games Conte's men are third in the table, just one point behind leaders Arsenal, and they can be backed at 1.684/6 to record a Top 4 Finish.

Forest hit rock bottom

Nottingham Forest fell to the bottom of the table after they lost 1-0 to Wolves, while Leicester's goalless draw at home to Crystal Palace moved them ahead of Steve Cooper's men on goal difference.

Manager-less Wolves moved out of the relegation zone thanks to a second half Ruben Neves penalty in a game few on chances, but they had goalkeeper Jose Sa to thank for securing the points after he saved a late Brennan Johnson penalty.

The victory takes Wolves up to 17th in the table and trading at 4.77/2 in the Relegation market, while Forest shortened even further and are now just 1.321/3 to go down.

Leicester remain in the drop zone and can be backed at 3.02/1 to be relegated despite picking up a point in a 0-0 draw with the Eagles.

Six unbeaten for Bournemouth

Since losing 9-0 to Liverpool and sacking boss Scott Parker Bournemouth have gone on a six-game unbeaten run that continued with a 2-2 draw away to Fulham on Saturday afternoon.

Under caretaker boss Gary O'Neill the Cherries are in the top half of the table, six points clear of the drop zone, though they are still very much fancied to return to the Championship, trading at 2.0811/10 in the Relegation market.

The Cottagers - also in to top half of the table ahead of Sunday's games - can be backed at 4.3100/30 to go down.
