EPL Matchday 35 Odds: Four matchdays remain in the 2024-25 English Premier League season, but Liverpool have already salted away the title as they are 15 points clear of Arsenal.
The Gunners have a reasonably strong hold on second, five points clear of Newcastle.
After that, things get interesting as only two points separate Newcastle from sixth-place Nottingham Forest, who have slid out of the top three thanks to a recent two-game skid and now would need a playoff to get into the Champions League next season.
They are even with Chelsea at 60 points but trail the Blues in goal differential, 19-14.
EPL Matchday 35 Odds: English Premier League Top Bets for the Week
Going into the weekend, let’s look at some promising sports betting opportunities from the league.
Manchester City -295 vs Wolves +660 (Draw +420)
EPL Bet: City to win
When: Friday, May 2, 3:00 pm ET
Two hot teams will clash on Friday night as Wolves have a six-game winning streak while the Citizens have won three straight and would love to grab a top-five finish and get a Champions League berth. Wolves have gone almost 80 years without a seven-game winning streak in the top division, but they’re coming in with all pistons firing after stopping relegation-bound Leicester City last week, 3-0.
It hasn’t been that long since Wolves were on the brink of relegation themselves, but this streak has saved their season. They did sweep Man City back in 2019-20, but they haven’t done well since. Even so, they’ve won four straight away matches. Can they make it five?
City lost some momentum over the weekend as Liverpool clinched the league title, but they still have an FA Cup final on tap against Crystal Palace. City have gotten 14 points out of their last six matches, and a win would move them to third, at least temporarily. That would make their first four-game winning streak in EPL play since the first four matches of the season. Injuries have taken their toll this year, but they still have the chance to finish in solid form. They come in having won eight of nine at home over Wolves.

Aston Villa -135 vs Fulham +330 (Draw +280)
EPL Bet: Aston Villa to win
When: Saturday, May 3, 7:30 am ET
Seventh-place Aston Villa host eighth-place Fulham on Saturday. Villa just reached the dizzying heights of a Champions League quarterfinal, but now must make up some ground in order to get even a shot at a play-in. Fulham are six points back of Villa but would love to play the spoilers. Fulham won on Saturday at Southampton, 2-1.
The hosts jumped out to an early lead behind a 14th-minute tally from Jack Stephens, but then Fulham poured on the pressure. They outshot Southampton, 26-7 (5-3 on target) and possessed for 65% of the match. The barrage finally worked as Emile Smith Rowe brought Fulham level in the 72nd minute, and then Ryan Sessegnon brought all the points to the visitors with an extra-time goal.
Aston Villa went to Manchester City last week and lost a heartbreaker, 2-1. City got on the board early with a seventh-minute tally from Bernardo Silva. Villa have also gotten drilled, 3-0, by Crystal Palace in their FA Cup semifinal, as their fall from Champions League glory has dimmed their hopes elsewhere as well. I do think they can bounce back at home.
