Today, the winners of the Champions League last-16 learned who they will face in the quarter-finals. The draw that took place at UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland, led to a massive change in the Champions League winning odds.
Before we look at the new rankings, here's a brief reminder of what things looked like before the previous round (all odds provided by our betting partners Megapari):
Manchester City - 2.55
Real Madrid - 5.5
Arsenal - 7.5
Bayern Munich - 8.5
Inter Milan - 11
And now, let's have a look at how the odds have changed after the draw:
Now that Man City were drawn against Real Madrid, their chances are a bit smaller but Real Madrid's odds have dropped much deeper.
Meanwhile, Arsenal will face Bayern Munich but bookies believe that their chances to lift the European Cup are now bigger than before.
After Atletico Madrid's heroics against Inter Milan, some people would probably expect them to replace Simone Inzaghi's side in the top 5 but Los Rojiblancos and their quarter-final opponents, Borussia Dortmund, are the teams bookies least believe in.
In case you missed the draw, here are all the quarter-final pairs:
The quarter-final clashes will take place on 9/10 and 16/17 April, and the semi-finals will be played on 30 April/1 May and 7/8 May.
Here are the semi-final potential match-ups:
Atlético / Dortmund vs Paris / Barcelona Arsenal / Bayern vs Real Madrid / Man City
