Champions League Betting Odds Now Have Barcelona And Inter Milan Favourites After First Leg Ties
Champions League Betting Odds make Barcelona and Inter Milan favourites for glory after the first round of quarter final games this week. In recent years English clubs have dominated but the bookies now think there could be no English interest in the Champions League Final.
Barcelona Set To Become The First Side To Retain Champions League
Barcelona are the unsurprising favourites despite giving up a two goal lead at the Emirates, eventually coming away with a 2-2 draw. Barcelona are 6/4 with Ladbrokes to retain the Champions League, they would be the first club to complete that achievement but the way things are playing you wouldn't bet against them. The bookies make them most likely to face Inter Milan in the final after the Italians beat CSKA Moscow 1-0 on Wednesday night. The Italian clubs have played third or fourth fiddle over the past few years but Mourinho seems to heave put them back on the map and Inter can be backed at 4/1 with Paddy Power and VC Bet to win the Champions League.
Man Utd Rated A Much Bigger Threat Than Arsenal By Bookies
The best of the English challenge should come from Man Utd, they don't have Barcelona to face (yet) unlike Arsenal so are 9/2 with Paddy Power to win the Champions League. They would be much shorter if they had not given away two late goals against Bayern Munich but they should still go through and they look overpriced. Speaking of Bayern Munich, they are 10/1 with Bet365, who offer up to £200 in free bets to new customers. Also on 10/1 with Bet365 are Lyon, who hold a lead against their compatriots Bordeaux, who are 40/1 with VC Bet. Arsenal are sandwiched between the two French clubs at 16/1 with VC Bet.
