2025/26 Champions League favourites and odds

Published: Updated at:

Ladbrokes looks at the latest Champions League 2025/26 odds, with Arsenal the new front-runners for continental glory.

Arsenal were already the favourites to win the Premier League come the end of the season, such has been their impressive start to the campaign, and they lead the odds in the Champions League after beating Bayern Munich at the Emirates.

A fifth win from five league phase games saw Arsenal soar to the top of the standings ahead of German champions Bayern and current holders PSG, who make up the top three.

2025/26 Champions League odds

Arsenal priced as the new Champions League favourites

Ladbrokes previously fancied PSG as the favourites for a successive Champions League title, but their defeat to Bayern in GW4 caused a huge shift in the odds.

The French champions are now third favourites to be crowned kings of Europe again, with Arsenal fancied for their first-ever Champions League triumph. Mikel Arteta's men have a perfect record in the competition so far this season - and Ladbrokes has odds for the Gunners to win multiple trophies in what could be a special season.

A Ladbrokes spokesperson said:

Arsenal rarely concede goals these days, and their miserly defence could well be the foundation that takes them all the way to Champions League glory. We certainly don’t see any side as likelier to win it all.

PSG's first Champions League defeat of the season saw them tumble in the odds to third, with Bayern - who have extraordinarily won all but two of their games in all competitions this season - rising to second-favourites.

Real Madrid hopes take a hit

Fifteen-time-winners Real Madrid find themselves as fifth-favourites in the Champions League betting odds, with defeat to Liverpool at Anfield in GW4 pegging them back.

Real are now behind Manchester City according to the bookies, with Barcelona, Liverpool and Chelsea the only other clubs with odds of 20/1 or below.

There's still a long way to go in this season's Champions League, so expect the winner odds to potentially change over the next few matchdays as the league phase comes to a close.

Ladbrokes will have a Champions League accumulator published for each gameweek, with odds, tips and predictions.
