Arsenal’s thrashing of Crystal Palace forced bookmakers SkyBet to pay out a whopping £8m to punters after people took advantage of one of its offers.
The Gunners battered Palace 5-1 at Selhurst Park to narrow their gap to current Premier League table toppers Liverpool to three points, prior to Arne Slot’s side playing one of their two games in hand when they face Tottenham Hotspur on the road.
Gabriel Jesus scored twice in the opening 15 minutes, while Ismaila Sarr had levelled for Palace in between the Brazilian’s strikes.
