Champions League - Group winner bets

They are all short prices, but they should all come in and may be best put in doubles and trebles.

Inter to win Group A (4/5 with Paddy Power)

Only scraped through last year’s stages and have started this year’s in the same fashion, with a 2-2 draw at Twente. It’s worth remembering that they drew last year at Dynamo Kiev (2-2) to open their campaign and that Twente are no pushovers, not to mention the fact they had good chances to win the game (Cambiasso missed a near open goal). Werder Bremen and Tottenham will be even harder to beat but they should be very hard to turnover at the San Siro, which could carry them through.


Lyon to win Group B (11/10 general)

Have been rather sluggish in France but made semis only last season and started perfectly with 1-0 win over Schalke. They have the most experience of all the teams in the Group and should be near impossible to beat at the Stade Gerland.

Bayern to win Group E (4/9 general)

Admittedly a very short price but last year’s finalist do possess star quality even without Ribery and Robben in the same of Muller and Klose, and they look by far the classiest team in the group. Made the perfect start when beating the second best team in the Group (Roma) 2-0, having struggled a bit in the first half.

Real Madrid to win Group G (1/2 general)

Tough group for the Galacticos with AC Milan (who have been given major boosts in the shape of Robiniho and Ibrahimovic) and Ajax, who will be no pushovers at home especially. However they will be near unbeatable at the Bernabaeu, have world class players throughout the team and will be expected to go close to winning this, to the percentage call is to back them to win the Group.
