Champions League Final: You Bet History Can Repeat Itself

William Hill think that history may well repeat itself and offer odds on all previous Manchester United European Final victories. In 1968, Manchester United won the European Cup Final at Wembley by four goals to one and Hills offer 100/1 that United defeat Barca by the same score this weekend. In 1999, they came back from 1-0 down to triumph and Hills offer 14/1 that United come from behind and win within 90 minutes. 2008 saw United beat Chelsea on penalties and for the same to happen on Saturday is 11/1.

United also lost a Champions League Final in 2009 2-0 to Barcelona and Hills offer 8/1 for a repeat of that score line.

“In such a hotly contested match between two European heavyweights there is a strong feeling that we may see history repeating itself in one way or another,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

MANCHESTER UNITED are the longest odds they have been all season to win a game in 90minutes play as they prepare to take on Barcelona in the Champions League, with Hills offering them at 3/1 to clinch victory without having to worry about extra time or a penalty shot-out. Barca are 21/20 for a 90min win with the draw 21/10.

**ONE WILLIAM HILL ONLINE CLIENT FROM BOLTON HAS STAKED FIVE BETS, TOTALLING £80,000 ON BARCA LIFTING THE TROPHY AT ODDS OF 1/2 and Hills expect that industry wide, the Champions League Final will generate around £10 million turnover.

Champions League Final Odds:

Outright (90 minutes): 21/20 Barcelona; 3/1 Manchester United; 21/10 Draw

To Lift The Trophy: 1/2 Barcelona; 13/8 Manchester United

To go to penalties: 5/1

MVP (Messi, Villa & Pedro all to score): 25/1
