Oldham E & Saddleworth – the opening prices
| Oldham E & Saddleworth by-election betting | LABOUR | LIB DEMS | TORIES |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ladbrokes | 1/7 | 5/1 | 10/1 |
| William Hill | 1/7 | 7/1 | 8/1 |
| Victor Chandler | 1/6 | 6/1 | 10/1 |

| Betfair | 1/5 | 7/2 | 10/1 |
From what I can see there are five current betting markets on the Old & Sad by election that takes place on January 13th. Labour is the heavy odds-on favourite in all of them though there is some variation.
Be warned – getting bets of a reasonable size on might be difficult. The two exchanges, Smarkets and Betfair, have very little liquidity while the traditional bookmakers might place tight restrictions on what you can bet.
