Liverpool and Manchester City are both 1/12 to qualify against their opponents, Sparta Prague and Aris Salonika.

Hills make Manchester City the 8/11 favourites to be the British side to progress the furthest in the competition, followed by Liverpool at 6/5 and Rangers 10/1. City are the 4/1 favourites to lift the trophy, while Liverpool are the 6/1 second favourites. Rangers are offered at 66/1.
