Champions League winner betting odds as Manchester United and Man City undergo re-draw

Manchester City remain favourites with the bookmakers to win their first Champions League trophy this season.

As the dust continues to settle on the last-16 draw controversy, Pep Guardiola and his star-studded City team are priced-up at 3/1 by Grosvenor Casinos to finally pick up elusive European honours.

Of course, the Premier League champions were edged out by Chelsea in the Porto showpiece last term.

Initially drawn against Spanish opponents Villarreal - a high-profile error from UEFA in Nyon forced a redraw which means City are now set to take on Sporting Lisbon over two legs.

Manchester United were at the centre of that fiasco when footage showed their ball was not included in a pot for potential opponents for Atletico Madrid.

They were initially drawn alongside Villarreal but, having progressed from the same group, the first legitimate draw actually saw Cristiano Ronaldo and co pitted against Lionel Messi and big-spending Paris Saint-Germain.

But the glaring error was soon flagged up - prompting a re-draw.

Last-16 ties are set to be held in February and March with TV scheduling to determine exact dates and times.

A statement from UEFA read: "Following a technical problem with the software of an external service provider that instructs the officials as to which teams are eligible to play each other, a material error occurred.

"As a result of this, the draw has been declared void and will be entirely redone."
