Manchester United 2/1 to win 5 in a row under Pochettino
William Hill have priced up a variety of specials following Mauricio Pochettino’s appointment as Manchester United manager, including one that would mean The United Strand would finally shave his hair.
The Red Devils are 2/1 to win 5 games in a row under Pochettino this season, likely leading to the social media influencer (real name Frank Ilett) cutting his hair for the first time in over two years.
Elsewhere, the leading bookmaker are 6/1 that United will spend Christmas Day in the relegation zone, and 20/1 that they’ll be bottom of the table.
Pochettino is 1/10 to still be in charge of the club on the first day of next season, and 11/10 to finish higher than his previous club, Tottenham Hotspur, this season.
Mauricio Pochettino – Man Utd Specials
- Pochettino To Still Be In Charge On The Last Game Of The Season (26/27) – 1/10
- Man Utd To Finish Higher Than Tottenham In The EPL (26/27) – 11/10
- Man Utd To Win 5 Matches In A Row This Season (In All Competitions) – 2/1
- Man Utd To be In The Bottom 3 On Xmas Day – 6/1
- Man Utd Not To Win Any Of Their Next 5 Matches (In All Competitions) – 7/1
Spokesperson for William Hill, Lee Phelps, said: “The United Strand finally shaving his hair this season is one of the standout specials we’ve priced following Mauricio Pochettino’s arrival at Manchester United – we’re 2/1 for the Red Devils to win five consecutive games under the Argentine.
“Pochettino will however need to haul his new side out of the relegation zone first before the elusive five in a row crosses his mind, and they’re 6/1 to still be in the drop zone on Christmas Day. However, United are a much shorter price at 11/10 to finish the season above Pochettino’s old side, Spurs.”
