Bookmakers asks if Arsenal will progress.

Bookmakers provides odds for Arsenal to beat Barcelona.

Sports betting fans could fancy a punt on tonight's (April 6th) Champions League action between Arsenal and Barcelona.

The Gunners travel to Spain as outsiders to qualify for the semi finals but kept themselves in contention by earning a 2-2 draw at the Emirates after trailing 2-0.

Arsene Wenger's men are unfancied with punters and their odds to eliminate Pep Guardiola's men have drifted from 7/2 to 9/2, while the Spanish side are 1/8 to progress.

"Despite Arsene Wenger's unquenchable belief in his own side, punters are not prepared to risk hard cash on the Gunners getting through," said William Hill's spokesman Graham Sharpe.

Meanwhile, odds have also been revealed regarding the future of Wenger as the pressure mounts on the Frenchman to guide the north London club to their first silverware since 2005.

Odds of 1/7 are available for him to remain in the Emirates hotseat on the opening day of next season, while he is 4/1 to fail to do so.
