Munich favourites for UEFA Cup

Bayern Munich are the 5.00 (4/1) favourites to win the UEFA Cup, according to Ladbrokes and William Hill, following today’s draw for the group stages of the competition. Bet Asia takes a closer look at the draw and how it has impacted the betting markets.

Spurs lead the way for the British contingent. The north London club are 13.00 (12/1) with Ladbrokes
to lift the trophy and 1.80 (4/5) to progress furthest of England and Scotland’s remaining representatives.

Everton are 21.00 (20/1) to win it and 3.00 (2/1) to secure British bragging rights. Ladbrokes spokesman, Nick Weinberg, said: “Tottenham and Everton will feel content with their respective groups, whilst Bolton and Aberdeen have it all to do. Bayern Munich will be the side to beat given the talent at their disposal and demonstrated by their fine start to the Bundesliga season.”
