Yes, you heard it right, Newcastle United are now the favourites to win the domestic treble!
All the talk was of Liverpool winning the quadruple.
The scousers having Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup and League Cup all to play for.
However, it is now the Geordies who are ‘hot’ favourites for the domestic treble.
Well, Newcastle United do happen to be the ONLY club now who can potentially do this, making them the default hot favourites.
Liverpool losing at Plymouth on Sunday, means United now the only ones still capable of winning all three.
If you fancy getting your cash on, it is just the 10,520/1!
Yes, those are the odds.
Eddie Howe’s team with the bookies (on Monday 10 February 2025):
500/1 to win the Premier League
5/1 to win the FA Cup
5/2 to win the League Cup
Put them all together and you get 10,520/1.
It’s on!
