Manchester City demonstrated their Premier League title credentials with a dominant 1-0 victory at champions Chelsea.
Kevin De Bruyne scored the only goal as Pep Guardiola's men suffocated Chelsea with their intensity to move six points clear of the holders after seven games.
Sky Bet have cut City from evens to odds-on at 8/11 to win the Premier League title.
Chelsea have been pushed out from 9/2 to 8/1 to retain their trophy. That's behind Manchester United at 3/1 in the prices.
Chelsea lost striker Alvaro Morata to an apparent hamstring problem in the first half and were second best to a City side denied when Thibaut Courtois saved from David Silva and then Fernandinho.
De Bruyne's left-footed strike from the edge of the area proved decisive against his former club, to give City a sixth win from seven games and inflict Chelsea's second loss of the season.
It wasn't a great match for Sky Bet's RequestABet backers as Manchester City to win and 8+ corners for the away side was the biggest selection to come in at 11/1.
Reaction
Kevin De Bruyne says his time with Chelsea made him stronger.
"That's the past - what happened, happened," De Bruyne told BT Sport when asked about his time at Stamford Bridge. "I don't regret coming here.
"It made me stronger in a lot of ways and it's part of a career; if you are at the club you want to play more.
"I made a decision at the time, I did something that was in the best interest of me at the time (to leave), but I'm very happy with my new team, with City."
Asked about the game, De Bruyne added: "I think we had more chances than Chelsea but just a little bit. I think tactically it was a great game and it's a very nice win because it's difficult to come here.
"Obviously it's very nice for us, we know it's just the beginning. It's important to maintain the winning streak and win as many games as possible.
"The feeling if you win is better for all the team and everybody is excited."
City boss Pep Guardiola hailed De Bruyne and dedicated the result to full-back Benjamin Mendy, who is recovering form cruciate ligament surgery.
However, the Spaniard refused to get carried away despite comprehensively outplaying last season's champions.
"The win is the most important thing," Guardiola said. "In the second half we were much better so big congratulations for the victory and especially the way we played.
"Every press conference and interview I'm so happy with (De Bruyne). He played here and he makes everything happen - he's prepared to score goal; assists; fights like the most humble guy.
"I'm so happy for him because I know how happy he is.
"It's three points, to win three points is important. When you play this kind of team it's not six points.
"Nothing is done in September so hopefully we can win some more. This game is for Benjamin Mendy as well."
Chelsea boss Antonio Conte bemoaned a lack of time between matches, with the game coming three days after their 2-1 Champions League win at Atletico Madrid.
"Manchester City is a really big team," he said. "It's very difficult this type of game. Honestly I think that we gave everything today.
"When I play against Manchester City, usually they dominate the ball.
"In this type of game you need better time to recover very well, to run, to put pressure, because if you are tired you are not able to go box to box."
