European Champions Cup Futures and Ante Post markets explained  

European Champions Cup Outright winner betting is by far the most popular European Champions Cup futures betting market.  Futures markets, also called Ante Post markets, are those that involve a wager that is contingent on a longer term result over the course of an entire season, rather than a single game.  In general, the highest paying odds for Ante Post and futures betting markets will come before the competition starts.  As the European Champions Cup progresses and certain teams rise in their group standings or progress in the playoffs, the odds will pay less for those teams in position to win the trophy.

Examples of European Champions Cup outright winner odds expressed in American, Decimal and Fractional formats

For American odds format, there are two sets of expressions to remember, but both involve the figure of $100. First, negative numbers express how much one needs to wager in order to win a profit of $100.  However, due to the nature of outright betting on the European Champions Cup, rarely would any one team be such a heavy favorite that their odds would be below even-money.  Most odds will be above even and thus will come as a positive figure, expressing how much potential profit would be returned for a bet of $100.   For example, when you see odds of +833 on Clermont to win outright, you would need to stake $100 in order to receive a profit of $833, yielding a total return of $933.

With Decimal odds format, the odds express the full potential amount that will be returned on your wager including the stake amount.  The first 1.00 of the figure reflect your returned stake on a win.  For the full potential return, simply multiply the Decimal odds by the stake. For example, if Bath is listed at 12.25 to win outright, a $20 bet would return a total of $245 including your stake, so the potential profit would be $225. 

For Fractional format, the odds express the amount of potential profit that will be returned on a wager.  For example, with a wager of $100 and odds of 53/2 on Scarlets to win outright (said fifty-three-to-two), one could see a profit of $2,650 (53 divided by 2, multiplied by $100) plus the stake amount for a total potential return of $2,750.
