Man United odds cut following favourable draw
Paddy Power has cut Manchester United to 13/5 following their favourable draw, while Arsenal have drifted to 9/1 after drawing the holders.
Barcelona are still the 15/8 favourite despite having to take on the Gunners in a repeat of the 2006 final, although this time Thierry Henry will be in Catalan colours.
Paddy Power quote the Spanish club at 4/9 to progress to the next stage while Arsenal are 13/8 to prevail against the holders.
The two English clubs have been kept apart in the draw and are 8/1 to meet each other in Madrid, and it is only 10/3 that United will face Barcelona in the final for the second year running.
Roberto Coladangelo spokesperson for Paddy Power said "Two massive games for Arsenal and United, but with the draw favouring United they have now been cut to 13/5 to pick up the title and Arsenal's huge task has meant they are now 9/1 from 6/1."
