The 2018-2019 season marks the 5th Champions Cup era in Europe. Only 5 top nations are qualified enough to compete with each other, making 20 rugby teams. According to internet sportsbook news site in UK, the final round will be held on the 11th of May 2019 in Newcastle upon Tyne, England. The official start of the championship is in the beginning of October. Without further ado, take a look at the European Rugby Champions Cup 2019 odds, especially Leinster’s winning chance.

Bookies’ Favourite Leinster

At this early stage, Leinster is the bookies’ favourite to win European Rugby Champions Cup 2019. The best online betting sites in the United Kingdom estimate 2/1 odds for the Irish team to win back-to-back.

Winning the Champions Cup in 2018 is the primary reason why Leinster’s odds are leading the others, including the runner-up Racing 92 (14/1) from France. However, we have to note that that Racing 92’s odds of winning European Rugby Champions Cup 2019 are not as high as other teams. Judging by their French rugby standings, Racing 92 is only second best after Montpellier (11/2).

What about the Other Nations?

We have already mentioned best teams from Ireland and France. Now, it’s time to introduce teams from Scotland, Wales and England which could potentially win the European Rugby Champions Cup 2019.

Out of the two Scottish teams, Glasgow (40/1) has better European Rugby Champions Cup 2019 odds than Edinburgh. Likewise, Wales’ got a similar story. Only two teams are representing the nation and Scarlets (18/1) are much more likely to win than Cardiff. With that being said, the Scot and Wales teams are still known as long shot bets.  

Truth be told, it’s much more likely for Saracens to pull another win for England. According to online gambling directorin UK, the betting odds for Saracens are at 7/2 which is second best to Leinster. After all, the Irish team should not underestimate two-time winners from 2016 and 2017 like the Saracens!
