Barcelona has now surpassed Real Madrid as the favorite to conquer the Champions League. Liverpool is the main candidate according to betting houses

Calendar of FC Barcelona

FC Barcelona started the league phase of the Champions League like a shot. After suffering a 'setback' against AS Monaco (2-1) in the first match, the team led by Hansi Flick has accumulated five consecutive victories against top-tier rivals such as Bayern Munich (4-1) and Borussia Dortmund (2-3).

The brutal results of the azulgrana team, which also boasts 21 goals in favor and only 7 against, place them in second place in the standings and make them the second favorite to lift the trophy at the end of the season. In fact, the culés, who were not considered contenders to win the Champions League at the beginning of the season, have surpassed Real Madrid in the betting houses.

The favorite to win the Champions

That Barcelona lifts their sixth Champions League trophy pays at 7.0, tying with Arsenal, who is third in the standings and in the betting odds. Meanwhile, Carlo Ancelotti's team, which is in 20th place with 3 wins and 3 losses, has fallen to fourth position in the betting lists, with their victory paying at 7.5.

The big favorite to be crowned as the tournament champion is, as expected, Liverpool, who remains undefeated in the competition and whose victory pays at 5.0. Finally, Atletico Madrid, eleventh in the table, appears very far in the betting, as their victory pays at 26.0.
