The Premiership title race is pretty much a two horse race. Both Leicester City and Tottenham won over the weekend with Leicester keeping their 5 point lead with 66 points. Arsenals beat Everton 2-0 and sit on 55 points with a game in hand and still have an outside chance of claiming the title.
At the start of the season some bookies offered betting odds of 5000/1 for Leicester City to win the Premiership.
