If you’ve had a flutter on Ladbrokes, then switched over to Coral and thought the setup looked familiar, you’re not going mad. The bookies are sister sites, both run by Entain. One thing Coral's known for is the Football Super Series, where you try to predict four match stats for a shot at free bets or £100 cash. Loads of these have been tied to Champions League fixtures, so if you know your way around European nights, you’re halfway in.

The welcome offer is wager £5 and get £20 in free bets, but what I really rate Coral for is the Rewards Shaker. All you’ve got to do is log in from your mobile between 9 am and 9 pm and give your phone a shake for a shot at cash prizes, super boost tokens, free bets, Coral Coins, trading specials, or bet and get deals. That’s all on top of the boosted Champions League betting odds on both singles and ready-made accas.

Pros:

• Daily free rewards available

• Superb Champions League pre-match coverage

• Very easy to use platform

Cons:

• PayPal deposits start slightly higher than the rest (£10)

I recommend signing up with Betway for your next Champions League acca. The first one is insured for up to £30 if it falls short. They’re also handing out 100 bonus spins on More Unusual Suspects, plus a £30 Uber Eats voucher to enjoy while you’re watching the midweek ties.

Betway is the official betting partner of a few big clubs, including Arsenal and Man City. So you’ll often see price boosts and offers tied to their Champions League games, plus a decent spread of match specials and custom markets not always found elsewhere. Another thing the bookie's well-known for is the Free Bet Club. We’ve had experts call it one of the top loyalty deals for UK punters. Signing up gives you access straight away. Then, if you bet £25 or more in a week, they’ll drop a £10 free bet into your account.

Pros:

• Excellent loyalty program

• Loads of Betway Boosts on Champions League odds

• Easy account setup and verification

Cons:

• £1 fee on withdrawals less than £5

Luckster is Mr Play’s Irish twin. Both are owned by Marketplay Ltd and share a similar layout, along with features like the 1-Click Betting tool. When I signed up, I deposited and wagered a tenner and got a £10 bet token, valid for two weeks on odds of evens or bigger. The expiry window came in handy, as it let me cover both legs of a Champions League qualifier. After that, I noticed regular price boosts and a few other offers floating around, too.

I found the platform very easy to get around, which makes it a good shout for new punters. It's a good option to use on mobile, even though there's no app, as the website basically mirrors what you see on desktop. You can expect regular price boosts on Champions League games and build same-game accas.

Pros:

• Attractive Irish theme

• The favourites tool lets you keep the Champions League betting odds at the top

• Great mobile website

Cons

• Withdrawals can take up to 6 days

Highbet’s a strong option if you’re after a newer platform for Champions League betting. They’ve only been around since 2021 and offer new customers a £30 free bet after a £10 wager. Coverage starts from the first qualifying round, and on each matchday, you’ll find boosted prices on selected fixtures along with a good number of markets available for early cashout.

One feature you don’t see too often is the option to filter matches by price range, which makes browsing a lot quicker. There’s also a Trader’s Treble section, where you can back one of the pre-picked trebles put together by Highbet’s team. These are usually a mix of Champions League ties, other European fixtures, and sometimes domestic games too.

Pros:

• Great blog for UCL tips

• Regular boosted odds available

• Loads of minute-markets

Cons:

• No mobile app available

There aren’t many that do Champions League betting better than Betfred. The brand has long been a go-to for punters, covering every stage from the first qualifier right through to the final.

Even the early rounds get full markets, with bet builders, price boosts, and plenty of matchday offers.

For new players, there’s a welcome offer where if you deposit and bet £10 at evens or above, you get 3 x £10 in sports free bets and 2 x £10 in acca free bets. You can also enter the weekly free-to-play Beat Fred quiz.

The aim is to answer six questions on the week’s biggest football matches for a chance to win a share of £5,000 cash.

Pros:

• 2 Up Early Payout promo for Champions League matches

• Regular price boosts

• Very intuitive mobile app 

Cons:

• Doesn’t support Apple Pay

The name and logo make it seem like Vegasland is only about casino games, but I was surprised by how well it covers Champions League matches. Upcoming games are easy to find in the football section, both on desktop and mobile. There’s even a print option for your picks and markets, which helps if you like planning your bets the old-school way before placing them online.

New punters get a £10 bet token after putting £10 on a market at evens or above. From the group stage on, you’ll see plenty of price boosts, cash-out options, and boosted accas to help you get going.

Pros:

• Fun retro theme

• Useful features like 1-Click Betting and the option to print out the odds available

• Very straightforward welcome offer

Cons

• Minimal outrights available

Mr Play comes across as a straightforward site that sticks to a classic layout without throwing loads of extras at you. It’s a good fit for new punters looking for an easy way to get their Champions League bets on. A standout feature is the 1-Click Betting, which helps during in-play by speeding things up and keeping you ahead of price moves or market suspensions. You choose your stake beforehand and set what kind of odds changes you’re happy to take.

Champions League odds go live right after the opening draw. Even the earliest qualifiers come with at least 55 markets each. New punters can get started with a ‘Bet £10, Get £10’ offer on odds over evens. Later on, accas with four or more selections get a payout boost, rising to 77% on a 14-fold.

Pros:

• Ideal for beginners

• Very helpful customer support via live chat

• Licensed by both the UKGC and MGA 

Cons

• Low-rated mobile app

Ladbrokes has been around since 1886 and did a fantastic job building on its high street roots to become one of the top online bookies for Champions League odds. Prices hold up superbly against the rest, and you’ll often see selected UCL fixtures given extra boosts. All the main markets are there, along with a fair few smaller ones and ready-made combos to build out your slip. And if there’s anything specific on your mind, you can ping the Ladbrokes team on X and ask for a price.

One feature that keeps pulling me back to Ladbrokes is the Lucky Dip. You lock in fixed odds on a chosen market, and the system sets up a random selection. New punters can also bag £20 worth of free bets after depositing and wagering a fiver. They’ve also got a free-to-play game called 1-2-Free. Simply call the correct scores in three selected matches and you’re in for a shot at £100.

Pros:

• Excellent for in-play betting

• Great resource for news and statistics on the UCL

• Wealth of promotions available

Cons:

• No loyalty programme available

You’ll find all the main Champions League betting markets at 10bet under ‘Top Action’ in the left menu once the proper stages get going. All the qualifiers are covered as well, starting from the very first round, and listed in the main football menu. This year, I noticed the outright prices were posted especially early, just days after the top five leagues wrapped up. 

The 100% matched bonus up to £50 is quite attractive, but I’d only go for it if you’re not in a rush to pull out your winnings, as it comes with an 8x rollover. Things look better for existing players, though. There’s an early payout if your side goes two up, £10 free bet via the mobile app, acca boosts, and regular promos tied to specific matches. For the last Champions League final, they even ran an in-play free bet offer for anyone who’d staked a tenner in the days leading up to the big one. 

Pros:

• Exclusive mobile app promos

• Early payout offer on Champions League matches

• Great head-to-head and form stats

Cons

• No loyalty program

For a different take on Champions League betting, have a look at Matchbook. The platform operates primarily as a betting exchange, so you can lay odds as well as back them. Those new can claim a bet £50 get £50 welcome offer, which is great if it's your first time working with this kind of setup. Later on, you'll also get a £5 free bet each time you place and settle £30 or more in multiples between Monday and Sunday.

Aside from that, you can still bet on main Champions League markets like 1X2 through Matchbook Zero, which offers traditional fixed odds. The market range is limited, but the appeal is that there’s no margin built in at all. For high-stakes bets, Matchbook also runs a brokerage service where eligible punters get a direct line to a trader to talk through potential wagers. We’ve seen bets placed this way go north of £50,000.

Pros:

• Back or lay Champions League odds your way

• No margin on 1-x-2 markets 

• Highly rated mobile app

Cons:

• Limited fixed Champions League betting odds
