Champions League odds: Preseason prices and current outright on talkSPORT BET

Champions League Semi-Finalists Odds (Preseason)

Arsenal – 8/1
Barcelona – 12/1
PSG – 16/1
Inter – 20/1

All four semi-finalists were up there in the odds but throughout the season too there were plenty of changes in the odds especially as the big hitters often struggled to cement themselves into the top eight to secure a place in the knockouts.

Arsenal have been up there from the start really, winning six of their eight league phase games and finishing in third overall hinting at a strong finish.

Barcelona (2nd), Arsenal (3rd), Inter (4th) and PSG (15th) suggests the new league format has separated the best and has created a few surprises too, like Man City finishing in 22nd and Real Madrid only in 11th.

PSG looked to be in trouble by November and talkSPORT BET had them at 50/1 as late as November 27th 2024 and are now just two wins away from landing a huge upset from that point.

The French side won over Girona in their first game of the Champions League league phase, before going on to lose to Arsenal, draw to PSV and lose another two – to Atletico Madrid and Bayern.

With just three games remaining they needed a strong finish which they achieved with three straight wins – 3-0 against RB Salzburg, 4-2 over Man City, and 4-1 vs VfB Stuttgart.

One loss in the final three would have seen them get knocked out in the league phase and instead they went on to dominate since then from the play-offs to now the semi-finals.

talkSPORT BET spokesman Ryon Scott-Douglas explained the odds of this year’s fascinating UCL campaign: “The quarter finals of the Champions League were full of drama with Arsenal being the final English club standing in this year’s competition.

“Barcelona head the betting at 2/1 to lift the trophy after beating Dortmund whilst Arsenal sit at 11/4 following their rather comfortable victory against Real Madrid.

“After defeat to Bayern Munich in the group stages, PSG touched 50/1 to win the Champions League, however the Parisians are now as short as 9/4 to win the competition with Inter Milan the outsiders at 4/1.”

It’s rare that each team comes from a different nation as usually two clubs represent one nation in the semi-finals with England and Spain being dominant in recent years.

Italy’s chance of 4/1 with Inter is the biggest price as they look to take on the UCL as the underdogs, despite performing well throughout.

Their chances are lower and therefore higher in the odds as they don’t necessarily represent a team that have dominated every match.

But winning 4-3 on aggregate over Bayern in the quarters and beating Feyenoord 4-1 in the Round of 16 shows they should be taken seriously especially as their form has also shone in the Serie A where they currently sit atop the table.

Barcelona are 1st in La Liga in Spain too and are the worthy favourites based on their attacking prowess and for the most part a solid defence to back it up.

Raphinha has 12 goals in 12 appearances in the Champions League this season almost matching his goals in La Liga (13 in 29 appearances).

If that wasn’t enough he’s also been a key creator with eight assists in the league and seven in the Champions League and is clearly thriving more so in this competition making him a huge danger in the final two games to fire Barcelona straight through to the trophy.
