Bookmakers have named the favorites for the matches of the Round of 16 of the UEFA Champions League

The draw for the Round of 16 of the UEFA Champions League took place at the UEFA headquarters in Nyon (Switzerland) on December 18. Sixteen clubs, which took first and second place in the group stage, learned their first opponents at the playoff stage.

It is worth recalling that the rivals play two matches at home and away since the Round of 16: the team that, on the sum of the two games wins, goes to the next round.

According to bookmakers, the easiest at the first stage of the playoffs will be Manchester City, whose opponents will be Copenhagen: the bets with odds around 1.01 (depending on the bookmaker's office) are given on the passage to the next round of Josep Guardiola's team.
