City - 3.25
Real - 3.95
Arsenal - 9.85
Liverpool - 11.10
Bayern - 12.70
Barcelona - 13.10
PSG - 16.80
It is surprising that Arsenal is higher than Bayern, Barcelona and even PSG. It is also not clear why City is considered the favorite, Real is the record holder in this tournament, although I probably agree with this, City really played better than Real. Probably in this rating I disagree only with the position of Bayern and would raise it higher.
For those who are confident in this, I think betting on Real Madrid at such early odds of almost 4x can be a good opportunity. This season considering players, statistics and performance, its hard to deny Real Madrid strength and power compared to other teams or even last season. While Manchester City also performed well last season, I wouldn’t say they played beter than Madrid especially since they lost to them.
Arsenal is third among the favorites to win the UCL but I find it challenging for them to overcome teams like Barcelona, Bayern Munich or even PSG.
Additionally, I'm wondering if betting on these teams while they advance in the Champions League will allow for an
early cashout before they win or get eliminated. For example if I have a bet on Barcelona with 13.10 odds and they advance to the finals, is it possible to cash out before the match begins and still make a good profit?
