Man City Seal Premier League Title
With Arsenal’s 1-0 loss to Nottingham Forest, Manchester City won the 2022-23 Premier League title anticlimactically.

While celebrations are well underway, Manchester City are still in the running for the FA Cup and Champions League. Now, they can use their final two EPL matches as tune-up games as they seek a treble. Meanwhile, a single point for Manchester United on Thursday vs. Chelsea will ensure Champions League qualification. We’ll review the EPL Matchday 32 odds as both Manchester clubs play makeup games midweek.
Matchday 32 Fixtures
Manchester City and Brighton both had reason to celebrate on Sunday. Man City had already won the title before their 1-0 win over Chelsea, but the victory in front of their home fans served as the icing on the cake. With a 3-1 win over Southampton, Brighton also sealed European qualification for the first time in their history. The Seagulls are in sixth place in the EPL standings and will almost certainly participate in the Europa League next season. Striker Evan Ferguson was a standout for Brighton on Sunday as he bagged two goals.
City will want to close the season on a high note as they compete in two cup finals in June. They have been in exceptional form, scoring 10 goals in their last three matches against Brighton. For Wednesday’s match, they are favored by ½ goal. Pep Guardiola’s side exhibits -135 ATS and moneyline odds, aiming for their 13th consecutive win in European tournaments.
Brighton, who have kept clean sheets in over 50 percent of their home matches this season, are +300 underdogs. Brighton +½ also comes in at +115 odds.
The EPL Matchday 32 odds price a draw at +325, but there has been a winner the last 13 times these teams have played each other. City are currently on a three-game winning streak in this fixture and picked up a 3-1 win back in October.
Erling Haaland scored twice in that game and recently broke the record for most goals in a single EPL season. The Norwegian striker enters this match with 36 goals in 34 games. Over three goals come in at -125 odds here, but none of City’s last five EPL matches have finished with more than three.
The last five times Manchester United and Chelsea have faced off, the match has ended in a draw. A draw sits at +330 odds here, which would be significant for Manchester United. The Red Devils will seal qualification to the Champions League with a draw or a win. With the EFL Cup trophy to boot, it would cap off a fine first season under Erik ten Hag for Man United. If United lose on Thursday, they have another opportunity on their EPL schedule to pick up points vs. Fulham on Sunday. While United have made progress in 2022-23, Chelsea have taken a massive step back.
The Blues can’t finish above 11th and have lost more games than they’ve won this season. Despite having an incredibly talented roster, Chelsea haven’t been able to put things together under Thomas Tuchel, Graham Potter, or Frank Lampard this season.
The EPL Matchday 32 odds price Manchester United as one-goal favorites for this match at Old Trafford. United sit at even odds to cover the spread, while Chelsea +1 displays -120 odds. Chelsea are dealing with a bunch of injuries to their squad.
Defenders Ben Chilwell, Benoit Badiashile, Marc Cucurella, Kalidou Koulibaly, and Reece James could all miss this one. Meanwhile, Mateo Kovacic, N’Golo Kante, Mason Mount, and Armando Broja are also on the injury report.
As a result, Manchester United are -160 favorites for this match. Still, whether United leading scorer Marcus Rashford will return from an illness in time for this one remains to be seen.
United have kept consecutive clean sheets and picked up a 1-0 away win at Bournemouth over the weekend. Meanwhile, Chelsea have won just one of their last 10 Premier League matches. United have struggled to score a bit lately, with just 0.8 goals per game in their previous five. Given Chelsea’s offensive woes this season, it’s not hard to see why under three goals display -115 odds for Thursday’s match.
