Firms also starting to take Arsenal seriously after a last-gasp victory at Hull  

It’s set to be one of the most exciting Premier League title race for many seasons, with all three contenders winning their respective matches this weekend.

Manchester United comfortably brushed aside Fulham by a 3-0 scoreline and they are now a best price 6/4 (William Hill) to win a fourth title on the bounce. They certainly seem to be on a roll and it seems that opposition defences are powerless to prevent Wayne Rooney from scoring at the moment.  

Chelsea (6/4 Paddy Power) also enjoyed a routine victory when beating West Ham 4-1, with Didier Drogba scoring twice to keep them right on the tails of the champions. The Blues are now two points behind United with a game in hand, although they have yet to visit Old Trafford.  

That could play into the hands of Arsenal, who narrowly beat Hull 2-1 to stay firmly in the race. This victory was achieved without Cesc Fabregas, who should return for the visit of West Ham this weekend. The Gunners are now a best price 11/4 (Victor Chandler) to finish top of the pile.
