Champions League Round 1 Betting Odds

September 15, 2008

The Champions League kicks off on Tuesday night and the question remains which countries teams will fare best in this season’s competition? English teams have dominated in recent years with statisticians having to go back to 2004 for the last time a final did not involve an English team. Spain also boast an impressive record in the competition, as do the Italians, but both these countries teams will have to improve this term to challenge the English dominance in the competition.

If you fancy backing all the English teams to win in the Champions League this week, Bluesq are offering the best odds on all four English teams getting off to a winning start this week. They are offering a very appealing 17/2 about the four teams all winning. On Tuesday, Liverpool and Cheslea kick off the bet with the Reds travelling to Marseille in Group D and Chelsea opening their campaign with a home fixture against Bordeaux. Both teams are favourites to win their respective games and should oblige, taking the interest into Wednesday’s games where Arsenal face a trip to the Ukraine to face Dynamo Kiev and reigning Champions League holders, Man Utd, face Villareal of Spain both teams are odds on favoruites to win.

Bluesq Premier League Antepost Offer

August 15, 2008

Blue Square are offering a superb free bet offer for anybody placing a bet during August on the outright winner of the Premier League. They will match your stake with a free bet on the Blue Square Premeir League, up to £20.

Predicting the winner of the Premier League is a very popular bet and one which many people will be placing as the season gets under way. Manchester United are the favourites at 6/4 with Bluesq, whilst Chelsea are hot on the tails of the reigning champions at 13/8. Arsenal and Liverpool will also be very popular at bigger odds and are available at 9/2 and 7/1 respectively.

The Blue Square Premier League may be unknown territory for many, but if it is a free bet it is certainly worth a punt. Torquay United and Cambridge are the 6/1 favourites with the sponsors but it may be worth picking a team at bigger odds as favourites have not got a great record of winning the title in this division. Oxford have narrowly missed out on promotion for the past two seasons and may be worth a bet at 11/1.

Free £25 Bet for New Customers at Bluesq plus a further £20 free bet on the Blue Square Premier League
