Liverpool are chasing their first Premier League title and lead by nine points but despite Man City overturning a seven-point deficit last term, one betting company has made a remarkable decision.
A press release on Betway's website read: "Jurgen Klopp's side are eight points clear at the top of the table and we expect them to go on to win their first league title since 1990.
"Betway are paying out early on Liverpool to be crowned the 2019/20 Premier League champions following their win over Crystal Palace yesterday.
"Jurgen Klopp's side are unbeaten at home since April 2017 and have claimed a remarkable 37 points from 13 games this season, only dropping points in a 1-1 draw at Old Trafford against Manchester United in October."
Betway's Alan Alger added: “Liverpool started the season as 9/4 second-favourites to win this year's title, but have looked unstoppable since the opening game.
“It's hard to see them dropping points many times this season, with yesterday's win extending their incredible form.
"We know there is risk involved, but this Liverpool team is doing all the right things and winning games in the style of champions. We believe the club has one hand on the trophy already."
