Brit Backers Denied Once Again As Last Minute Pen Secures Draw

Football Betting News From William Hill Bookmaker 0 Comments , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

A last minute Valencia penalty denied Brit backers a Champions League double tonight. William Hill offer 11/8 that Manchester United are the furthest progressing British side and depite their draw, Chelsea are 9/4 second favourites.

“English punters will have been disappointed by the collective capitulation of both Manchester City and United, and Chelsea’s last minute concession will have done little to lighten the mood ,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Hills are offering 5/1 that there is an all British final in this year’s Champions League.

All of the pre game talk before the Chelsea game in Valencia revolved around Frank Lampard and he will have done no damage to his (purported) ‘diminishing’ career by bagging Chelsea’s only goal at the Estadio Mestalla. Hills go 3/1 about him starting England’s game against Montenegro next month.

Furthest progressing Brit side: 11/8 Man Utd; 9/4 Chelsea; 3/1 Man City; 6/1 Arsenal

Both sides of Manchester failed to win in the Champions League and William Hill are offering 9/1 that both fail to qualify for the knock out rounds of the competition. City have now failed to win in two matches and are 7/4 to now finish third in Group A with top spot a drifting 9/2. Carlos Tevez refused to come off the bench and play for City in Munich and Hills offer 11/4 that he does not start another Premier League game for City this season.

“A disappointing evening was rounded off by Tevez refusing to come off the bench and the odds suggest that Mancini may well have finally lost patience with City’s former captain,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Despite the setback at Old Trafford, Manchester United are the 13/8 favourites to progress the furthest of all the British sides in this year’s Champions League. An all Manchester Final is 40/1.

Football Betting News From William Hill Bookmaker 0 Comments , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Both Manchester United and Manchester City were held to draws in their opening Champions League matches and are 6/1 (United) and 10/1 (City) to win this year’s Champions League. Hills make United the 4/6 favourites of the two Manchester sides to progress further in the competition with City 11/10. The price of an all Manchester final has been pushed out slightly from 25/1 to 28/1.

“While neither sides administered the hammering that we were expecting, they did avoid defeat in what were two potentially tricky ties and for this reason, their odds of winning the competition have remained largely the same,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

Ryan Giggs scored in his 16th Champions League campaign and William Hill are offering 2/1 that he scores in next year’s competition.

All Manchester Final 28/1
