Daily Spread Betting Round-up

What are the odds on Chelsea winning the Champions League?



Spreadex sports spread betting Thomas Tuchel Chelsea

Chelsea came away with the edge in their Champions League semi-final 1st leg against Real Madrid – but, more importantly, how much did punters win?

How many Champions League goals has Karim Benzema scored?
It was another disciplined, low-scoring effort from Thomas Tuchel’s Chelsea, one that opened with a 14th minute goal from Christian Pulisic.

If you bought his Player Goal Minutes spread of 9-12, that left you with 2 times your initial bet. Which meant it was a rare instance where it was more profitable to opt for fixed odds, especially if you backed a First Goalscorer price of 8/1.

With his 71st goal in the competition – making him the joint 4th highest goalscorer alongside fellow Real legend Raul – Karim Benzema then drew the Spaniards level in the 29th minute.

Buy his PGM spread of 22-25, and you just about won 4 times your opening stake. Which is only slightly better than if you bought a Benzema Last Goalscorer fixed odds price of 7/2.

That early spurt meant the Total Goal Minutes makeup came in at 43. Football spread betting fans could therefore sell a very low starting spread of 109-119 and still come away with 66 times their original wager.

A spate of 2nd half yellows also helped produce a Total Card Minutes makeup of 357. Buy at 228-258, and that’s 99 times your initial bet.

What are the odds on Chelsea winning the Champions League?
Carrying an away goal to Stamford Bridge next week, Spreadex now has the Blues at 16/5 to win the Champions League, alongside a binary spread of 19-23.9.

That’s ahead of Real at 19/4, and just behind PSG at 3/1. Man City remain clear favourites, however, at 5/4 with a binary spread of 38.4-44.5.
