Champions League Group Stage Betting Preview 

William Hill have opened dozens of exciting Champions League betting markets for the first round of UEFA Champions League group stage matches taking place on Tuesday night.

Along with match betting markets for each of the night's fixtures, football fans can bet on several other aspects of play as some of the biggest clubs in Europe go head to head in 9 intriguing Champions League matches.

Football fans looking to benefit from the highest odds need look no further than scorecast betting markets. Scorecast bets allow fans to place a single bet on an anytime goalscorer combined with the final score of the match.

For example, a bet on Thierry Henry scoring for Barcelona in a 4-2 defeat of Sporting Lisbon will pay out odds of 150/1. To place a scorecast bet simply select the scorecast option in a Champions League match, select a player who you think will score during the game and predict the final score.

Punters looking for more conservative Champions League betting opportunities might want to investigate the double result betting markets at William Hill. These markets allow football fans to place a single bet on the outcome of each half.

For example a bet on Barcelona winning both halves against Sporting Lisbon will pay out 8/11, while a bet on Sporting Lisbon drawing the first half and then going on to win the match will pay out at odds of 18/1.
