Chelsea v Liverpool EPL betting odds: spike in Torres proposition bets

Soccer is by no means an individual sport, but surely all eyes will be on Fernando Torres as he makes his debut for Chelsea against Liverpool in English Premier League betting action on Sunday.

Think he’s a good bet to score? So do online sportsbooks bet365, Bodog and Unibet.

As for the game itself, Liverpool is considered a longshot by all three online sportsbooks at a uniform 9/2 despite the Red Devils bringing in a three-game winning streak. Other odds on outcome may vary, so consider before you wager the following odds offerings.

But back to Torres. “El Nino” broke the record for largest-ever transfer contract in English Premier League history with a fat $80 million deal. Add to this the man’s memorable last performance against Chelsea for Liverpool, a November match in which he scored both goals in the Devils’ 2-0 victory, and you’ve got one compelling story – and one sure to draw betting action.

So will Torres score? The online sportsbooks say the following.

In case you’re wondering, Torres’ fellow threat Didier Drogba gets exactly the same odds at all three online sportsbooks mentioned. And this simple proposition bet is just one of the Fernando Torres-related offerings. Bet on how many times Torres will score, whether he’ll get a header, take a penalty kick, and much more.
