Barcelona Odds On To Beat Stuttgart in Champions League Betting

Barcelona head to Germany tonight to play against Stuttgart as they continue their quest to defend the Champions League crown they won in Rome last season, Barca have been in great form this campaign so far and few would back against them winning this one. The Catalan giants already lead La Liga and have been looking in good shape in Europe as well, Pep Guardiola is hoping he can be the first Manager to lead a team to consecutive Champions League wins. The team will once again be led by the World Player Of The Year, Lionel Messi who has proved himself to be a cut above in the last year or two, he along with Xavi and Iniesta should have far too much class for Stuttgart.

Latest 2010 Champions League Outright Odds

Barcelona swept all before them last season and they look capable of doing that once again in 2010, they travel to Stuttgart to play the first leg of the last 16 match and the bookies are backing them to take the advantage. The defending Champions League winners are odds on to win the first leg with Boylesports.com offering a skinny looking 4/6 on them the match by any scoreline. Those odds highlight their superiority against a solid if unspectacular looking Stuttgart team who will be hoping to cause an upset on home soil, they should not be underestimated though as they do have some good players who can hurt the Spaniards.

If Stuttgart are to have any chance at all of moving forward to the last eight they will need to get a first leg advantage tonight, Boylesports are not not convinced though as they have them priced at 9/2 to win the first leg. There could well be some value in that for punters as German teams are notoriously difficult to beat on home soil, they will be tough to break down and will look to frustrate Barca whilst trying to hit them on the counter attack. The former Arsenal player, Aleksander Hleb will be the key man for the home side, he is on loan from Barcelona at the moment and will be desperate to get one over his parent club.

We take Barcelona to score on the night and take a win with a 2-1 scoreline to put them in pole position with the second leg at the Nou Camp coming up. The 2-1 to Barca scoreline is looking great value at 15/2 with Boylesports for football punters looking to turn the match into a lucrative one.
