Champions League: Odds for Last 16 First Legs
The draw has taken place for the last 16 of the 2019/20 Champions League.
There are a few interesting odds available for the first legs so, if you're the kind of person who likes a flutter, this post could be for you.
Atletico Madrid vs Liverpool
Favourites: Liverpool
Odds: 2.66
Liverpool are favourites even as the away team in this first leg. Although Atletico Madrid are a good team, odds of 2.66 are pretty generous. Of course, Madrid aren't too far behind with the home team offered at 2.84.
BVB vs PSG
Favourites: PSG
Odds: 2.22
Dortmund aren't quite the team they were a few years ago so PSG are the favourites in this first leg. Nevertheless, it's unlikely to be an easy game so BVB at odds of 3.10 are of interest.
Atalanta vs Valencia
Favourites: Atalanta
Odds: 2.12
The home team are favoured here but this is a difficult game to call. In truth, both of these teams would have been likely to have lost against other opponents in the competition.
Tottenham vs RB Leipzig
Favourites: Tottenham
Odds: 2.10
Not an easy draw for Tottenham but the Mourinho effect makes these odds interesting. With home advantage, this could be a steal.
Chelsea vs Bayern Munich
Favourites: Bayern Munich
Odds: 2.10
Bayern are favourites here but I'm not convinced this is a foregone conclusion. Chelsea are in a bad patch of form but have time to recover before this match. One to keep an eye on.
Napoli vs Barcelona
Favourites: Barcelona
Odds: 2.0
Again, the away team is the current favourite although Napoli are never an easy team to play against in this competition. Nevertheless, management changes could see these odds move before matchday.
Lyon vs Juventus
Favourites: Juventus
Odds: 1.90
Major injuries mean Lyon are even weaker than they already would have been seen. At 1.90, Juventus seem like the team to back here.
Real Madrid vs Manchester City
Favourites: Manchester City
Odds: 2.58
Interestingly, Manchester City are favoured over Madird here but I think that's a mistake. City have been conceding to poor teams all season and I'd expect a team like Madrid to get chances, especially at home. At odds of 2.72, Madrid make for a tempting option.
