Athletic Bilbao are currently the most favoured. Manchester United is given nearly the same chance as them for the title. I don't agree with bookmakers. I would put Lazio ahead of them and maybe even Frankfurt too.
I agree with you. I think we can agree that Athletic Bilbao are the first favorites to win the UEL after seeing their form in La Liga. I also put Lazio as the second favorite and United or Tottenham as the third favorite. Honestly I don't think Manchester United can win the UEL because they are inconsistent with their form. That means they might beat Athletic Bilbao or Tottenham but there is also a chance they could lose to a team like Rangers or even Bodø/Glimt. If I am going to play it safe I think Athletic Bilbao is the only choice here. They are the most consistent among the other teams. They are also ranked 4th in the league this season and the 3 teams above them are teams playing in the UCL.
