Below is a comparison of the match lines and proposition bets offered by three JackpotFinder approved online sportsbooks – Bodog, Unibet and Paddy Power.

In terms of prestige and brand names, the marquee matchup is Barcelona v Arsenal, but few bookies reckon the British side will do anything tonight, with 7/1 the shortest odds on the Reds. The sole question here seems to be how thoroughly Barcelona will win; at Paddy Power, not only is the “over” on the 2.5-goal over/under at 2/5, but Barcelona is getting odds of 11/5, 3/1 and 11/4 to score two, three or four goals, respectively.

In terms of “outright winner” proposition betting, the inside track is all held by Spain. Bodog puts Barcelona at a solid 2/1 to take the trophy while Real Madrid is at 4/1. The British Premier League is well represented with Chelsea (9/2), Manchester United (15/2), Arsenal (12/1) and Hotspur (14/1) getting reasonable lines. Bayern Munich is at 10/1 and all other competitors get lines of 33/1 or longer.
For these proposition bets, live in-game betting and lots more, enjoying the wagering action at Paddy Power, Bodog, and Unibet online sportsbooks!
