Mark Hughes' City backed for Uefa Cup success

Gambling firm makes Manchester City favourites for Uefa Cup run.

Despite their indifferent domestic form, football betting fans are backing Manchester City to last longer than any other Premier League side in the Uefa Cup this season.

Following consecutive 2-0 defeats to Middlesbrough and Bolton Wanderers in the league, Mark Hughes' side start their Group A campaign at home to Dutch outfit FC Twente tonight (November 6th).

William Hill makes City 15/8 to be the 'best of the Brits' in the Uefa Cup, with Aston Villa – who travel to Czech Republic for a match against Slavia Prague this evening – available at 2/1.

Meanwhile, Ladbrokes rates City's chances of winning the Uefa Cup at 14/1, with Villa an 11/1 bet following last month's impressive victory over Ajax.

Tottenham Hotspur's revival under Harry Redknapp has seen the north London side installed as 6/5 favourites with William Hill to be the highest-scoring Premier League side in tonight's games.

Unbeaten since their 2-0 defeat to Udinese on October 23rd, Spurs face Dinamo Zagreb at White Hart Lane.
