Rocky Reds Should Kick-start Season, Red Bull To Give Man City European Wings

Misfiring striker Fernando Torres is looking increasingly disillusioned with life at Liverpool and William Hill are odds on at 8/13 that he will NOT be at the club come the first day of the 2011/12 Premier League season.

That said, Liverpool are 2/7 hot favourites to beat Steaua Bucharest on Thursday night, with Torres 9/4 favourite to score first. Big spending Manchester City are priced at 6/10 to emerge victorious against Red Bull Salzburg, and they are the current 5/1 favourites to win the trophy with Liverpool the 9/1 second favourites, however, Hills offer 11/4 that any team who qualify through the Champions League win the competition. An all English final is priced at 16/1.

Man City are 4/6 to progress further in the competition than Liverpool who are priced at 11/10 to go further than City.

“Torres almost left Liverpool in the summer following a disastrous campaign last season. He looks almost certain to go before the start of next season unless there is a marked turnaround in fortunes. The odds suggest that Liverpool should kick-start their season with a victory tonight,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

William Hill Odds:

Europa League Outright: 11/4 Any Team From The Champions League; 5/1 Man City; 9/1 Liverpool; 11/1 Juventus; 12/1 Sevilla; 14/1 Atletico Madrid; 16/1 Porto; 16/1 Villarreal; 20/1 Bayer Leverkusen; 20/1 Borussia Dortmund; 20/1 Zenit St Petersburg; 25/1 Stuttgart; 25/1 CSKA Moscow; 25/1 Napoli; 25/1 Sampdoria; 33/1 Palermo; 33/1 PPSG; 33/1 PSV Eindhoven; 33/1 Dynamo Kiev; 40/1 BAR

How Far Will Gunners Go In Europe ?

HOW FAR WILL GUNNERS GO IN EUROPE?

WITH ARSENE WENGER again talking up Arsenal’s Champions League prospects, William Hill are betting on how far they will get in this year’s tournament and believe they will struggle to get past the last 16, making that their 7/4 favourite to be the stage at which they are eliminated. ‘Arsene is very much an optimist, but we believe the Gunners will do well to get past the Last 16 stage and if they do they’ll probably exit at the Quarter Final stage’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
Hills make Arsenal 2/9 to end the season with no major trophy to their credit at all yet again, and quote 500/1 that they will win all four major tournaments they are in, 22/1 that they win the Premier League – FA Cup double.

ARSENAL are 1/7 to win their Champions League Group with Hills who also offer 9/2 Shakhtar; 12 Braga; 40 Partizan B. They are 1/50 to qualify; 12/1 not to.
