Champions’ League: 11/4 ’06 Final Repeated In Last 16

Arsenal won against Partizan with relative ease tonight and William Hill have priced them at 11/1 to win this year’s Champions’ League. Conversely, Chelsea lost for the first time in this year’s competition against Marseille as their poor run of form continued and they have eased from 4/1 to 5/1 . Hills are offering 11/10 that Chelsea’s next victory comes against Tottenham at the weekend and 12/1 that they do not win a game until AFTER they have played Bolton on the 28th December 2010.

Hills are offering 5/1 that two British teams contest the Champions’ League final, while Chelsea are the 11/8 favourites to be the British team to progress the furthest in the competition.

Arsenal finished second in their group, which means that they could come up against Barcelona, the 9/4 favourites to win the competition and Hills are offering 11/4 that the teams that competed the ’06 final face each other in the last 16.

Capello 6/1 To Still Be In Charge After Euro 2012

GERRARD 11/2 TO SKIPPER ALL REMAINING QUALIFIERS

Harry Redknapp is the 11/4 favourite at William Hill to succeed Fabio Capello when he steps down as England manager after the 2012 European Championships. New Liverpool boss, Roy Hodgson is the 10/3 second favourite and Martin O’Neill is just behind him at 4/1. David Beckham has been backed in from 33/1 to 20/1 to take over. The next manager is 1/5 to be English and 10/3 that he is non-English.

Hills offer 11/2 that he goes before the European Championships start and 6/1 Fabio is in charge of England’s first game after the Euros.

Despite claiming that he wishes to enjoy his retirement after the 2012 Championships, Hills are offering 3/1 that he moves back to Italy after the 2012 Euros and manages a Serie A club and 7/2 that he manages a club in Spain. He is 5/1 to not manage before the start of 2014 and 9/2 that he manages a Premier League club.

“Capello appears to have made up his mind to leave after the Euros and we can only hope that he leaves on a high. Should his reputation take another battering in Poland and Ukraine, however, the odds suggest that he may give club management one last shot,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

GERRARD 11/2 TO SKIPPER ALL REMAINING QUALIFIERS

William Hill are offering 11/2 that Stephen Gerrard captains England for all of the remaining European qualifiers. Conversely Rio Ferdinand is 1/7 to captain in any qualifying game.

“Rio is the current England captain but at the moment he faces a fight to get back into the starting XI following an impressive start to qualifying, so Steven Gerrard could yet stay as captain for a while yet,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

William Hill Fabio Capello Odds:

To Leave Before The Start Of Euro 2012: 11/2

To Still Be England Manager For England’s First Game After Euro 2012: 6/1

Where Will Fabio Go After The Euros (to manage): 3/1 Serie A; 7/2 La Liga; 9/2 Any other (including staying England Boss); 9/2 Premier League; 5/1 Not To Manage Before 31/12/13; 7/1 Any International; 11/1 Bundesliga; 16/1 Ligue 1

Nationality Of Next England Manager: 1/5 English; 10/3 Non English

Next England Manager: 11/4 Harry Redknapp; 10/3 Roy Hodgson; 4/1 Martin O’Neill; 5/1 Stuart Pearce; 8/1 Steve Bruce; 12/1 Sam Allardyce; 14/1 Jose Mourinho; 14/1 Alan Shearer; 16/1 Guus Hiddink; 16/1 Ian Holloway; 20/1 Arsene Wenger; 20/1 David Beckham; 20/1 Mark Hughes; 20/1 Alan Curbishley; 20/1 Glenn Hoddle; 25/1 BAR
