January 2022 - Latest Sports Betting News

January is a fairly quiet month in the general sports calendar, with no really big boxing events and a break in the Champions League and Europa League competitions.  However there is plenty of domestic action to keep up our interest, including Premier League, FA Cup 3rd Round and Carabao Cup Semi Finals action.

Champions League 21/22
The Champions League group stages have now finished with all four English sides making it safely into the Last 16 stage.

The draw for the last 16 is as follows, with matches taking place in February and March, as the Champions League takes a break in January.

Salzburg (AUT) vs Bayern Munich (GER)
Sporting Lisbon (POR) vs Manchester City (ENG)
Benfica (POR) vs Ajax (NED)
Chelsea (ENG) vs LOSC Lille (FRA)
Atlético Madrid (ESP) vs Manchester United (ENG)
Villarreal (ESP) vs Juventus (ITA)
Inter Milan (ITA) vs Liverpool (ENG)
Paris Saint-Germain (FRA) vs Real Madrid (ESP)

The outright odds for the Champions League 21/22 season are as follows:

Champions League 21/22 Winner Odds
Man City 11/4 (Bet365)
Bayern Munich 7/2 (Betfred)
Liverpool 11/2 (Paddy Power)

Man City are the current outright favourites at 11/4 and continue to impress despite their lack of an out and out stiker.  They have gone from strength to strength this season and look very strong domestically and in Europe.  With a fairly easy tie against Sporting Lisbon, they would expect to get through to the last 8.

Liverpool have come in now to 11/2 and have looked very impressive this season since the return of Virgil Van Dijk and other defenders like Joel Matip and Konate.  They sailed through their group, but do have a slightly tricky tie against Inter in the last 16, albeit Liverpool are the favourites to get through that tie.

Bayern Munich look really strong again at 7/2 and are going really well this season in the Bundesliga under Julian Nagelsmann.  If Bayern can keep their key men fit then they can be a real feature this year and have a fairly easy looking last 16 tie against RB Salzburg. 

Carabao Cup Semi Finals
The Carabao Cup reaches its Semi Finals stage, with the two-legged ties taking place on 5-6 and 12-13 of January.

The ties are as follows:
Chelsea vs Tottenham
Arsenal vs Liverpool

The outright odds for the Carabao Cup are as follows:
Liverpool 7/4 (Paddy Power)
Chelsea 2/1 (Coral)
Arsenal 4/1 (Betfred)
Tottenham 9/2 (William Hill)
(Please note all odds are correct at time of article publishing: 01/01/22)

Liverpool are the outright favourites, but with a heavy schedule for all teams there could be some surprises in this competition, so maybe Arsenal at 4/1 offer some value, they are currently flying under Arteta and will be well up for this competition as a realistic chance of some silverware.
