Some very interesting odds on Premier League top four (and other possibilities) for the 2024/25 season where Newcastle United are concerned, with bookies taking stock after Sunday’s victory over Spurs.
The Premier League now halted for the first of so many ridiculous international breaks.
The bookies and punters reacting to a lively opening three rounds of games.
As well of course, how they are seeing the underlying strengths of the various teams and squads.
Listed below are the general Premier League odds now available from the various bookies for the 2024/25 season (in brackets are what the odds were after the opening round of PL games):
Win the Premier League:
11/10 (11/8) Man City
2/1 (9/5) Arsenal
9/2 (13/2) Liverpool
40/1 (40/1) Chelsea
66/1 (40/1) Newcastle United
66/1 (33/1) Tottenham
80/1 (28/1) Man U
100/1 (200/1) Brighton
125/1 (66/1) Aston Villa

So Newcastle United rated joint fifth most likely…

2,000/1 Arsenal
Eddie Howe’s team now seen as fifth least likely to go down in the 2024/25 season.
If you are wondering about Man City 12/1 odds on relegation, this is due to the possibility (probability?) of severe punishment from the 115 Premier League charges they face, which could include amongst other sanctions, points deduction or even relegation.
Finish Premier League top four:
1/10 (1/9) Arsenal
1/7 (1/7) Man City
2/7 (1/2) Liverpool
2/1 (9/4) Chelsea
5/2 (9/4) Newcastle United
5/2 (9/4) Tottenham
4/1 (7/2) Villa
5/1 (2/1) Man U
7/1 (11/1) Brighton
20/1 (25/1) West Ham
80/1 (33/1) Crystal Palace
This is where, like me, I guess you will be giving most focus.
With fair luck, can Newcastle United bounce back into the Premier League top four and get Champions League football?
Well the bookies still have NUFC as real contenders, seeing Arsenal, Man City and Liverpool as hot favourites for those Premier League top four spots, then Chelsea, Newcastle as Spurs pretty much together and prices hardly changing.
However, the big faller is Man U, seen as a 2/1 chance after their very lucky opening win over Fulham, before another two poor performances (which ended in defeat) seeing them now show at 5/1 to finish top four.
