Betting Spy: Leicester a big price to beat misfiring Man Utd

Betting Spy has finally made that happy walk to the pay-out window after a start to the season which has been more Slaven Bilic that Pep Guardiola.

I was tempted to get all bullish and pile on Leicester at a very attractive looking 5/1 to win at Old Trafford.

The honeymoon seems to be over before the suitcases were unpacked for Jose Mourinho and the Champions shouldn’t be that big a price at Man United.

Wayne Rooney is a shadow of his former self in front of a misfiring but very expensive midfield while Zlatan Ibrahimovic must wonder what he’s strutted into.

The defence looks vulnerable as well and new Leicester signing Islam Slimani might have a field day in the air.

A sneaking feeling the home side might batten down the hatches for a draw just puts me off though so we’ll look elsewhere for this week’s punt.

Everton are enjoying a storming start to the season and I can’t see Bournemouth causing them too much trouble.

Man City are also a good thing at Swansea while Spurs should have too much firepower for Middlesbrough despite the absence of Harry Kane.

The Man City, Totenham and Everton treble pays a shade over 5/1 which looks like a good bet this weekend
