Lionel Messi’s odds have been cut to 11/10 from 6/4 by bookmaker Bet365 to top the Champions League goalscoring chart for a fifth consecutive season after his brace against Spartak Moscow.

Bet365 spokesman Steve Freeth said: “11/10 may seem on the short side after match day one but he has a bit of course and distance to his name!

“It looked like we had a coupon-buster on our hands after an hour until that man Messi proved to be the difference yet again. We finished match day one well behind.”

Bet365 are now 5/4 from 11/10 about all four Premier League sides qualifying for the knockout stage.
