Champions League 2026/27 Winner Odds

Champions League Winner Betting Markets

The Champions League remains one of the biggest betting events in club football, with millions of fans placing wagers throughout the 2026/27 season. From predicting the overall winner to picking individual awards markets, there are plenty of ways to get involved beyond simply backing the team you think will lift the trophy.

Here are some of the most popular Champions League betting markets available.

Champions League Winner

The outright winner market is the most popular Champions League betting option. Simply select the team you believe will be crowned European champions at the end of the 2026/27 campaign.

The odds will change throughout the season depending on factors such as squad form, injuries, transfers and performances in the group stage and knockout rounds.

Each Way

Each way betting can provide extra security by offering a payout if your selection reaches the final but fails to win the competition.

For example, if you place an each way bet on Barcelona to win the Champions League, your bookmaker could pay out if they lift the trophy, while also returning a smaller profit if they finish as runners-up (subject to the bookmaker’s terms and each way places offered). The odds are usually shorter than a straight outright winner bet, but it reduces the risk of needing your selection to go all the way.

Winner/Top Goalscorer Double

This market combines two major Champions League predictions: the tournament winner and the player who finishes as the competition’s top scorer.

Your selections do not need to come from the same club, meaning you could back Manchester City to win the Champions League while selecting a Real Madrid forward to finish as the leading goalscorer.

Name the Finalists

This market allows you to predict which two teams will contest the Champions League final.

It can be a useful option if you have strong opinions on multiple contenders but are unsure who will ultimately lift the trophy.

To Reach the Final

If you believe a team has what it takes to make the showpiece event but are less confident about them winning the trophy, the 'To Reach the Final' market offers a different approach.

This allows you to back a club's progress through the knockout stages without needing them to win the final itself.

Nationality of Winning Club

You can also bet on which country will provide the Champions League winner in 2026/27.

Historically dominant nations such as Spain, England, Germany and Italy are often among the leading contenders due to the strength of their domestic leagues and the success of their clubs in European competition.

Spain remains the most successful nation in Champions League history, largely thanks to the achievements of Real Madrid and Barcelona, while English clubs have enjoyed significant success in recent seasons.

Champions League Group Winner

Once the league phase begins, another popular market is predicting which clubs will finish highest in the standings.

Backing a team to top the table requires them to perform consistently across their opening fixtures, making this a popular option for bettors who want to target the early stages of the competition.

Champions League Top Goalscorer

The race to finish as the Champions League's leading scorer is one of the most competitive individual markets.

Elite forwards from Europe's biggest clubs typically dominate the betting, with goalscoring form, penalty duties and how far a team progresses in the tournament all playing a major role in determining the winner.

Champions League 2026/27 Betting Markets

As the 2026/27 tournament progresses, additional markets will become available, including match betting, correct score predictions, both teams to score, total goals and player-specific markets.

Odds and availability will vary between bookmakers, so it is always worth comparing prices before placing a bet.

Previous Champions League Winners

Since 1955/56, Europe has sought to crown one club as the best team in the continent. The Champions League was known as the European Cup until the competition was reformatted for the 1992/93 season – a point of irritation for some football fans who believe the old competition and its history have been largely forgotten. In any case, the European Cup and Champions League refer to different iterations of the same competition. 

Let’s take a look at all the Champions League winners since 1992/93.
