Some dull scorelines masked a headline-worthy night for the Premier League on Tuesday – but how much money did football spread betting punters win? It’s the Daily Sports Spread Betting Roundup!

When was the last time Man United were top of the table?
There are a few different ways to answer that question. In 2018/19, they were top for the first evening of the season after beating Leicester 2-1. If you’re looking for United holding 1st place following the full completion of a matchday, then you have to go back to September 9th 2017.

As for the last time United were top of the table approaching the season’s half way point, prior to Tuesday night they hadn’t managed that feat since Fergie’s final hurrah in 2012/13.

Now, following their 1-0 win over Burnley, they are 3 points clear of defending champions Liverpool, heading into Sunday’s clash at Anfield.

A 71st minute goal from Paul Pogba sent United top, the Frenchman aided by an assist from Marcus Rashford.

Back Pogba at a Player Goal Minutes spread of 4-7, and you won 64 times your initial stake. Or buy Rashford Assist Minutes spread of 11-14 for 57 times your opening bet.

You did need to sell a Total Goals spread of 2.9-3.1, however, to make 1.9 times your original wager.

What are the odds on Man United winning the title? They’re still heading for 3rd place according to Spreadex, at a Season Points spread of 73.5-75 – City are on 81.5-83, Liverpool on 77-78.5 – and a fixed odds price of 11/2.

Who were the last team Sheffield United beat in the league?
Picking up their first league win of the season – before Tuesday their last victory was against Chelsea in July – Sheffield United beat Newcastle 1-0 at Bramall Lane.
Worryingly for Chris Wilder, that still leaves them 2 points behind Derby County’s total after 18 games during their record-breakingly bad 2007/08 season.

For those brave enough to back the Blades, buying a Sheffield Penalty Goal Minutes spread of 5-7 left you with 66 times your initial bet thanks to Billy Sharp’s 73rd minute spot kick.

The Magpies played their part, included a 2nd yellow for Ryan Fraser at the stroke of half time. With 5 other yellows dished out, the Bookings market hit 85 – buy at 32-36, and that’s 49 times your original stake.

Or, back a Total Card Minutes spread of 193-223, and a series of late bookings meant a makeup of 549 netted you 326 times your starting wager.

What are the odds on Sheffield United going down? They remain firmly at the bottom of Spreadex’s Season Points table, at a potentially optimistic 22-23.5, and are odds on at 1/18.
