Having been drawn against Unirea Urziceni, Europa League favourites Liverpool have been cut to a best price of 13/2 by Betfred to lift the trophy. At 12/1 with Victor Chandler and bet365 respectively, Valencia and Juventus are expected to be the Reds’ main challengers but Everton’s tricky pairing with Sporting Lisbon means they have been pushed out to 25/1 by Stan James to win the competition and Fulham, who face defending champions Shakhtar Donetsk, are now 66/1 (Betdaq).
Rafa Benitez’s troops are a safe-looking 1/5 (Ladbrokes) to get the better of their Romanian opponents over two legs, subsequently booking a tie with either Lille or Fenerbahce. The Toffees’ are tentatively fancied to progress too, at the expense of the side from the Portuguese capital, Partybets posting 7/10 against them making it through.
Fulham however, aren’t expected to reach the last 16 and are as high as 7/4 at Jaxx.com to eliminate Shakhar, who are 14/1 (Sportingbet) to be crowned champions for the second season in a row.
