Odds on winning the Champions League 2010/2011
The Champions League Group Stage has been drawn: Barcelona, ManU, Real Madrid and Chelsea heavily favoured by the online bookies to become the next CL Champions !
Interesting groups with difficult tasks for some of the favourites, yet also what looks to be fairly easy groups for others, that is the result of the champions league group stage draw. Current title holders Inter face Werder Bremen, Tottenham and Twente in Group A, which should see heavy fighting for the top two spots. Barcelona as the top contender for the title should have no problems to advance from Group D against Panathinaikos, Kopenhagen and Rubin Kazan.
Things could become really interesting in Group E, which includes favourite #2 Real Madrid, AC Milan, Ajax Amsterdam and AJ Auxerre from France. This years runner-up Bayern Munich is favoured to take down Group E against AS Rome, Basel (Switzerland) and Romanian champions CFR Cluj.
Group B should be very difficult to call, as it includes Olympique Lyonnais, Benfica Lisbon, FC Schalke 04 and Hapoel Tel-Aviv. Manchester United clashes with Glasgow Rangers in Group C, which also includes FC Valencia and Turkish champion Bursaspor.
An interesting Group F was drawn for Chelsea with French champions Olympique de Marseille, FC Spartak Moscow and first-timer and big underdog MŠK Žilina from Slovakia. Last, but not least, it`s Arsenal in Group H against Shaktar Donetzk, Portugals SC Braga and Partizan Belgrade.
Odds on the first group stage fixtures on September 14 and 15 are already available from your favourite online football bookmakers like Bet365, Ladbrokes, William Hill or SportingBet. Longterm odds on the next Champions League winner are also already active.
Odds SuperBowl 2009: Arizona Cardinals vs. Pittsburgh Steelers
Super-Bowl 2009: Sportsbetting on the Arizona Cardinals versus the Pittsburgh Steelers !
After 17 regular season games and 3 playoff weekends, the big game is finally here (almost). The heavily favored Pittsburgh Steelers will play for their sixth SuperBowl Championship against the Arizona Cardinals. Who would have thought, that Quarterback Kurt Warner and his Cardinals would make it into the Superbowl 2009 ? Probably not many aside from the die-hard Arizona fans. The early sportsbetting odds and money lines look like this:
Pittsburgh Steelers to win: 4/11 (UK odds) – 1.36 (decimal odds) and -275 (US odds)
Arizona with the upset: 9/4 (UK) – 3.25 (decimal) and +225 (american odds)
The Arizona Cardinals managed to overcome a late third and fourth quarter scare to win the NFC 32-25 against the Eagles, while the Pittsburgh Steelers took the AFC Championship with a more or less expected 23-14 win over the Ravens. The Steelers now (again) bear the burden of being favored going into the SuperBowl Championship game.
US customers: Sportsbetting.com will take your SuperBowl bet !!!
The spread is currently at Pittsburgh minus 6.5, the over/under is set around 47 points, which seems high for a defense like the Steelers have, no matter how good the Arizona offense might be…
All the big sportsbooks and bookmakers like Ladbrokes, William Hill, Victor Chandler or Bet365 will certainly offer literally hundreds of different betting options for this Arizona-Pittsburgh game. You can wager on pretty much anything from the “over or under” to “how many points will be scored in the third quarter ?” to the “odd or even”-wager or “which team will score first or last in the game ?”
SuperBowl 43 will take place on Sunday, February 1 at 6pm Eastern in Tampa Bay, Florida. You can watch the game LIVE on NBC !
