Man City second favourites to win the Champions League after last season's disappointing final defeat
Manchester City are always in and around the favourites to win the Champions League each season, with manager Pep Guardiola brought into the club to finally bring that success.
It's been 5 years without that success so far, with last year's 1-0 final defeat to Chelsea the closest his side has come to winning it.
Man City have been drawn in the same group as favourite's PSG, who have been heavily backed into 3/1 after signing Lionel Messi this Summer.
The French side also kept Kylian Mbappe despite Real Madrid reportedly bidding €200m for the forward and this just strengthens their position in the market with betting sites.
Chelsea given 11.1% chance to win the trophy back-to-back
Thomas Tuchel's Chelsea side surprised everyone last season by winning the Champions League despite the manager only coming in half way through the season.
Chelsea have been drawn with Italian giants Juventus, but the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo from the 'Old Lady' significantly weakens their squad going into the Group Stage ties.

Man Utd slashed into 8/1 to win the Champions League after Cristiano Ronaldo re-signed for the club
Cristiano Ronaldo's return to Manchester United has seen their odds come crashing down to win the Champions League this season.
Ronaldo has won the competition an astonishing five times in his career with four coming at Real Madrid and one with United in his first spell at the club.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's men were as big as 14/1 to win the competition with some betting sites just last week, but the arrival of Ronaldo and a favourable Group Stage draw has seen them come in odds-wise.
