As suspected, Everton aren’t doing as well as Sporting Index Predicted. The spread is down to 51.50 - 53 points for them from an opening price of 55.50 - 57.

Chelsea are still favourites despite being kept to a 1-1 draw at home today. I think they will win the league but maybe not with that points total.

A prediction on how many points a team will get during the course of the season.

The one that stands out for me is Everton. Last year the over achieved. No one is interested in any of their players. They’ll be lucky to get top 10 this year I think. 55.50 - 57 is too high and I think its a sell. Last year’s 65 points will not be repeated.

For example, if you agree with me and think on will get less than 55.5 points and you sold at £10 a point. Say if Everton ended up on 50 points, you would make £55 profit. If however they did do well and got 65 points, you would lose £95.

I prefer this to the bookies handicap market because you can still win even if you are not totally right.

Manchester Utd Points 82.50 - 84

Chelsea Points 82 - 83.50
