Stoke have been cut to 7/2 from 6/1 by William Hill to be relegated from the Premier League following their home defeat to Manchester United.
Michael Carrick’s early strike and a Robin Van Persie penalty in the second half gave the champions-elect a 2-0 victory at the Britannia Stadium, condemning the Potters to a sixth defeat in seven and Tony Pulis’s charges remain just three points above the drop zone.
Sunderland were in deep trouble but their tremendous 3-0 Tyne-Wear derby triumph over rivals Newcastle has seen them drift from 13/8 to 11/2 with William Hill to go down.
Meanwhile, Wigan were in cup action over the weekend and they’re 13/8 at the same firm to slip into the Championship with Aston Villa a 5/2 chance following the draw with Fulham.
William Hill spokesman Rupert Adams told Betrescue, “Sunderland may just have secured Premiership football with their fantastic victory over local rivals Newcastle.”
