A spread betting preview of tonight’s Merseyside derby

Our friends at IG Sport take us through tonight’s spread markets

chickendinner’s favourite spread betting firm IG Sport are here to preview the spread betting opportunities for tonight’s Merseyside derby.:

What do the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and 80’s band Starship have in common?  Amazingly three things, two of which give them World notoriety!  Firstly they both form a part of the World’s most tenuous link, secondly between them they recorded two of the World’s worst songs and thirdly and most amazingly both were number one in the pop charts the last time Liverpool (in the case of the former) and Everton (in the case of the latter) were the number one football teams in the country.

The two sleeping Merseyside giants are starting to stir this season and it’s all about who wakes up and smells the coffee on Monday night when the 180th Merseyside derby takes place at Anfield.  Liverpool have the bragging rights as it stands.  Not only have they had their best start to a season in 20 years, they also hold a 12 to three advantage over the toffees in their past 20 meetings.  Not surprising then that Liverpool are a sword wielding 0.7-0.9 goal favourites with spread betting firm IG Sport.  Everton fans will obviously be hoping to put them back in their shells and reach for the stars themselves.  Cowabunga!
