FA Cup champions Arsenal beat the Premier League champions Chelsea on Sunday to retain the Community Shield. It was manager Arsene Wenger’s first win over his fierce nemesis Jose Mourinho and the fans were quite happy with the result. Further, Simon Clare joined the Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast to present all the latest sporting odds after the game.
The Coral spokesman explained that the Gunners are now with a 4/1 chance to win the league title after the French manager’s side overcame a big hurdle by beating their west London rivals.
Though Wenger has not been too active in the transfer market till now and his biggest signing has been Petr Cech, the club could be looking to add a few more high quality players before the window shuts down, as he looks to compete for the title.
Further, Clare spoke also about the most likely contenders to win promotion from the Championship, with Derby the slight favourites in the betting, ahead of Middlesbrough, Hull and Burnley.
