The annual Champions League Tournament is in the midst of the Quarter Finals with the second leg games being played this upcoming Tuesday,†April 10th†and Wednesday, April 11th, 2018. In three of the first 4 games of the first leg, the winning team won by 3 goals, which means it will be extremely difficult for the losing teams to advance to the Semi-Finals.
The biggest surprise of the first leg games was the 3-0 victory by Liverpool over Manchester City. Before this round began, Manchester City was the odds-on favorite to win the entire tournament, however after a disappointing blowout loss, now they are +1600 to win it all. Various price per head bookie services, like AcePerHead.comhave Manchesterís 3-way money line at -222 to win on Tuesday, but they will need to score at least 3 goals against Liverpool if they want to advance to the Semi-Finals.
The other Tuesday game will feature Roma vs. Barcelona, with Barcelona having the clear advantage after winning the first game by the score of 4-1. Not only do they have a 3 goal cushion but they are also the 3-way money line favorite at -152 to win on Tuesday. Barring some miraculous comeback, Barcelona should have no problem advancing to the Semi-Final Round.
On Wednesday there will be the other two-Quarter Final games with Bayern Munich taking on Sevilla, and Real Madrid against Juventus. Bayern won the first game by a score of 2-1 so on paper this could be the most competitive of the games because Sevilla still has a legitimate chance to advance since they are only down by 1 goal. However, Bayern is a big favorite at -455 to win at home on Wednesday. In the other matchup, Real Madrid already won 3-0 on the road so Juventus is going to have to win by at least three if they want to have a chance to advance.
Even though these games may not be that thrilling considering each losing team has a huge hole to climb out of, there will still be plenty to bet on, such as the game lines, halves, live and props. So regardless they will have entertainment value for anyone with money wagered on the games.
