Chelsea held by Rosenborg

Despite coming back from a goal down, Chelsea could only manage a 1-1 draw against the Norweigan champions. The Blues have been pushed out to win the title, from 8.00 (7/1) to 9.00 (8/1) with BetFred, SkyBet and Stan James. Jose Mourinho is 11.00 (10/1) from 15.00 (14/1) with Ladbrokes to be the next Premiership manager to leave his post. Bet Asia takes a look at all of tonight’s Champions League action and how the betting markets have reacted.

Ladbrokes spokesman, Nick Weinberg, said: "The draw could prove more detrimental to Mourinho's future than to Chelsea's involvement in the competition. Punters didn't give the Norwegians a prayer and the result busted a fair few accas.”

Despite playing the last half an hour with ten men, Liverpool managed a 1-1 draw away at Porto. Benitez’s men remain on offer at 13.00 (12/1) for the title.
