Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur will find out their Champions League group stage fate on Thursday (August 25) as the London clubs sit in pot two alongside Premier League counterparts Liverpool. Both clubs have been priced out of competing for Europe's top prize with Betfred pricing the Blues at 16/1 and Spurs at 20/1.
Unsurprisingly, Manchester City have emerged as the favourites - again - at 5/2 as Pep Guardiola's side look to secure the club's first ever European title. Chelsea will have happy memories the last time City were in a European final after Thomas Tuchel secured his first ever Champions League trophy in a 1-0 win in Porto back in 2021.
Meanwhile, last year's finalist Liverpool at 6/1 to win the competition for a seventh time but given their long list of injuries at the moment and lack of recruitment in midfield, it looks unlikely the Reds will successfully clear the last hurdle this year. Surprisingly, PSG are 11/2 and the second-favourites to win their maiden Champions League trophy under Christophe Galtier.
The Premier League champions are in pot one along with European champions Real Madrid, Europa League winners Eintracht Frankfurt, AC Milan, Bayern Munich, Paris Saint-Germain, Porto and Ajax. In pot two, along with the other Premier League sides, you have Barcelona, Juventus, Atletico Madrid, Sevilla and RB Leipzig.
Pot three includes Borussia Dortmund, Red Bull Salzburg, Shakhtar Donetsk, Inter Milan, Napoli, Benfica, Sporting Lisbon and Bayer Leverkusen. While pot four has Rangers, Celtic, Dinamo Zagreb, Marseille, Copenhagen, Club Brugge, Viktoria Plzen and Maccabi Haifa.
Here are the odds from Betfred :
- Man City - 5/2
- PSG - 11/2
- Liverpool - 6/1
- Bayern Munich - 13/2
- Real Madrid - 12/1
- Barcelona - 14/1
- Chelsea - 16/1
- Tottenham - 20/1
- Bar - 33/1
