Pick Your Favorite for Champions League Final
Monday, May 25, 2009 at 12:22 PMWritten by Daniel O
Even before the Spanish Soccer League (Primera Liga) season
started, FC Barcelona was installed as everyone's favorite team. The favorite everything
with their style and tremendous skill. As it relates to us in the online sports
betting industry, the Catalan team was the favorite to win any game they
played, the UEFA Champions League final included.
Alas, Barcelona will face another title contender and a club
of no less fans and believers in Manchester United. Oh, and they're defending
champions too.
While Barcelona last won in 2006.
Barcelona will face Manchester United in Rome on May 27. It
is hard to call them favorites this time around.
The teams are tied with 13/8 odds at Bet365.
They are tied at 17/10 odds on William Hill Sports and on Paddy Power Betting.
Barcelona have a slight advantage (7/4 odds compared to Man U's 13/8)
on Ladbrokes.
And the picture is pretty much the same across the boards.
Which leaves us with a hunch. And a fair bet. And good luck.
