Olympiakos touch 1.01 to qualify from Group F before a great French escape in Germany rocks the markets and 150.0 Marseille make it to the last 16 of the Champions League.

Crisis? What crisis? Exactly a week ago it was doom and gloom at Stamford Bridge after Liverpool inflicted Carling Cup defeat on the Blues to cap a month that brought losses in both Premier and Champions League as the west Londoners wobbled.

But a Didier Drogba-powered Chelsea shrugged off any Champions League qualification concerns with a 3-0 win over Valencia tonight thanks in part to two goals from the Ivorian. With normal service resumed, the Blues are 16.0 fifth favourites to win the competition this year.

In truth, the drama was many miles from Stamford Bridge on a tumultuous first night of the final group stage.

In Greece, Olympiakos looked to have done enough when defeating Arsenal 3-1 to reach the knockout stages of the competition. Indeed, with Marseille trailing 2-1 at Dortmund and just minutes left on the clock there, Betair customers were prepared to take the basement price of 1.01 on Olympiakos qualifying from Group F.

But in an astonishing reversal of fortunes, the French side struck twice late on to reward in-play win backers at 150.0 and correct score backers at 160.0.

Arsenal, who are 23.0 to lift the Champions League trophy, top Group F with Marseille second, and Olympiakos a point off in third.

Barcelona, the favourites, had few problems despatching BATE, scoring four times and keeping a clean sheet. The reigning champions are 2.94 to follow up. Milan, who beat Plzen 2-1, finished second in Group H and are 32.0 in the winner market.

APOEL finished top of Group G despite losing 2-0 at home Shakthar, by dint of second placed Zenit's 0-0 draw at Porto which denied the Portuguese outfit a place in the last 16.
