Newcastle United 2024/25 Premier League top four chances – Bookies react after Everton match

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 Saturday’s draw against Everton.

The Premier League with seventh rounds of games now completed.

The Premier League paused now for this October international break.

The bookies and punters reacting to how things now stand in the Premier League table (see below), as well of course, how they are now 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:

6/4 (9/5) Arsenal

7/4 (11/8) Man City

7/2 (13/2) Liverpool

22/1 (40/1) Chelsea

80/1 (33/1) Tottenham

125/1 (66/1) Aston Villa

1500/1 (40/1) Newcastle United

200/1 (28/1) Man U

300/1 (200/1) Brighton

So Newcastle United now rated seventh most likely…

To be honest, I can’t see anything other than Man City or Arsenal, maybe Liverpool as a possible third contender.

This is how the Premier League table looks today (Thursday 10 October 2024):

Premier League relegation:

1/4 (1/1) Southampton

4/5 (1/2) Leicester

10/11 (10/11) Ipswich

6/4 (7/2) Wolves

9/4 (5/2) Everton

7/1 (10/1) Palace

11/1 (3/1) Forest

12/1 (7/1) Brentford

12/1 (12/1) Man City

14/1 (7/1) Bournemouth

25/1 (11/2) Fulham

28/1 (20/1) West Ham

100/1 (40/1) Brighton

100/1 (40/1 Chelsea

250/1 (250/1) Man U

300/1 (250/1) Newcastle United

500/1 (200/1) Villa

750/1 (250/1) Tottenham

2,000/1 (2,000/1) Liverpool

2,000/1 (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 the Man City 12/1 odds of 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. That hearing now reported to be ongoing.

Finish Premier League top four:

1/20 (1/9) Arsenal

1/6 (1/2) Liverpool

1/6 (1/7) Man City

19/20 (9/4) Chelsea

3/1 (9/4) Tottenham

5/1  (7/2) Villa

6/1 (9/4) Newcastle United

8/1 (2/1) Man U

10/1 (11/1) Brighton

50/1 (25/1) West Ham

66/1 (66/1) Fulham

This is where, like me, I guess you will be giving most focus.

Can Newcastle United bounce back into the Premier League top four and get Champions League football?

Well the bookies still have NUFC as contenders, seeing Arsenal, Man City and Liverpool as hot favourites for those Premier League top four spots, then Chelsea now seen as fourth most likely.

Tottenham and Villa now also rated ahead of Newcastle United, by bookies and punters.

I think that after these next two rounds of Premier League matches it will be interesting to see how things stand then.

Newcastle United at home to Brighton and then away at Chelsea, a win at St James’ Park and a point or better at Stamford Bridge, would for sure see Newcastle grow in credibility where outsiders are concerned.

We are also now fully into the period of the season when European demands could impact on those teams competing this season in the three UEFA competitions.
