Champions League Qualifying Betting - Round Two
(July 29-30 & Aug 5-6)

The Champions League moves a step closer toward the all important group phase, after the conclusion of the first round of qualifying.

Fourteen successful teams now progress to round two, to face some recognisable names from European club football.

Turkish side, Fenerbahce - quarter-finalists from last season’s competition face Hungarian Champions, MTK Budapest, while UEFA Cup finalist Glasgow Rangers play their first leg at Ibrox against Lithuanian minnows, FBK Kaunas.

PinnacleSports.com are offering Champions League Asian Handicap betting , Three-ways and Total Goals markets, priced to 60% better than traditional bookmakers.

Dynamo Kiev will be making the longest journey travelling from the Ukraine to Dublin, facing Drogheda United, playing the Champions League qualifiers for the first time in the club’s history.

Drogheda’s home ground doesn’t meet UEFA regulations so the first leg will be played at Bohemian FC’s Dalymount Park, where nonetheless, Dynamo should expect an intimidating atmosphere.

Kiev scouts assessment of Drogheda was less than complementary "Our opponents play a very simple game using long balls forward and set pieces," and though Dynamo Kiev are strong favourites on the Champions League betting markets at PinnacleSports.com, the game in Dublin still represents a potential banana skin for the Ukrainian Champions.

Those teams remaining in the second round of Champions League qualifying will know what is at stake when the draw for the third and final round is made on August 1st.

With teams like Barcelona, Arsenal and Juventus in the hat, there is a huge amount at stake, with a visit to the Nou Camp, the biggest prize on offer.
