Europe is the word on everyone’s lips this week. The Champions League kicks off tonight, with last season’s finalists Chelsea and Manchester United heading the market. The Blues are 5/1 Fav with BetUK while United are a 6/1 chance.

Inter Milan (13/2) are third favourite - a price that appears largely down to the Jose Mourinho factor. It would be no surprise to see Mourinho lead the Nerazzurri to the last eight, and possibly last four – but the single-figure price on them lifting the trophy next May has little appeal.

Barcelona and Real Madrid lie next in the betting at 7/1. Both clubs have something in common with Inter – in the case of Barcelona, that’s a new coach in Josep Guardiola, and in the case of Real Madrid, it’s a focus on the Champions League to the detriment of league matters. That could make the price a gift come next May.
