'Best League In The World' 1/6 Not To Be Represented At QF Stage (Again)
It's often said that the Premier League is the best in the world but odds firms are 1/6 about there being no English representation at the quarter final stage of the Champions League - just like two years ago.
Bookmakers are betting on when an English club will next win the Champions League and they’re 8/15 it’s not before 2018.
Bayern Munich, who demolished Shakhtar Donetsk 7-0 on Wednesday, are bookmakers' favourites to lift the trophy with Chelsea's conquerors PSG priced at 10/1.

Soccer - Demichelis extends City deal
Manchester City defender Martin Demichelis has signed a contract extension to remain at the Etihad Stadium until the summer of 2016. The Argentine moved to the Citizens, who are 7/1 to win the Premier League this season, from Atletico Madrid in 2013 and has been a regular under manager Manuel Pellegrini since. The 34-year-old has made 30 appearances this season and says he signed a new deal with City so he can help the club fight for more silverware. "Manchester City is a club with a lot of ambition," said Demichelis. "When you get to hold a trophy, it's the best feeling for any player."
