Look for the likes of Thomas Muller, Claudio Pizarro, Fabio Quagliarella and Robin Van Persie to be the only real contenders who still sit on three goals. Javier Hernandez has been known to have some big performances as well and he also sits on three goals. The likelihood of that happening would probably require United to get to the final.

The aforementioned Messi sits at an even money price with Cristiano Ronaldo just a step behind at 2/1. Robin Van Persie is a lengthy 10/1 but is still considered to be the outside third-place contender. United are 12/1 to actually win the competition so you may want to back the two would probably require the same thing. A smashing performance could be in the cards on the big stage against Real Madrid and, should United run riot against a vulnerable Madrid, his price would drop like a stone.
Robert Lewandowski is a 14/1 shot and that's going to attract some attention as many think his side are capable of great things. He is definitely instrumental in everything Borussia Dortmund does.
Current co-leader Burak Yilmaz is a lengthy 16/1 but is Galatasaray can progress to the next stage it will likely be because of his goals. If the Turkish side can put together a string of good performances – he's definitely going to be one to watch. The value is definitely there at this point.
Karim Benzema, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Klaas-Jan Huntelaar and Roberto Saldado are all trading at a 20/1 price. Other notables include Javier Hernandez at 50/1, Willian at 33/1 and Wayne Rooney at a lengthy 80/1 price.
It's important to remember that dead heat rules are in effect here. There is also each-way wagering available on this market with most bookmakers paying out 1/4 odds on the top three finishers in the competition.
