United at home

United to win / draw @ 2.25 / 3.00

Thanks to City's oil money the Manchester derby does offer better prices than previous seasons. United playing at Old Trafford can be backed to win. However, taking an additional option of a draw makes a minimum return of 25% a mostly safe bet.

------------------------------------------------
Update: market closed with 20 minutes to go

United started as the market favourite, but an early goal for City sent their prices tumbling. After the half-time break their problems got worse with a red card and two additional goals. By the 70th minute United were staring down the barrel at 0-3. The markets had enough and closed early.

----------------------------------------------
Final score: United 1 - 6 City

This one went horribly wrong!
