Jose Mourinho comes up against his old club Chelsea in the Champions League tonight...

Inter Milan v Chelsea at 7.45pm tonight, live on ITV1 

Mourinho's Inter Milan side are the 13/8 underdogs To Qualify from the tie. Chelsea are odds-on at 8/15 to get the job done over the two Legs. 

The bookies are keen on their Champions League 'specials' bets this season – last week you could bet on who David Beckham would swap shirts with in the AC Milan v Manchester United game. And tonight Boylesports are taking bets on who Mourinho will be seen shaking hands with first after the game...

'Jose Mourinho Specials – 1^st To Shake Hands'

Boylesports have listed 11 Chelsea players. The 3 favourites are: 

• John Terry @ 9/2
  
• Frank Lampard @ 11/2
  
• Didier Drogba @ 13/2

Anelka, Cech, Essien, Carvalho, Ballack, Malouda, Mikel and Ferriera are all priced at 10/1 each. 

Tuesday's 'Total Goals' payout...

Talking of specials bets, in yesterday's article (see below, 23^rd Feb) I mentioned the Victor Chandler market for the Total Goals in Tuesday's night Champions League games. There were just 3 goals scored – Stuttgart 1 Barcelona 1 and Olympiacos 0 Bordeaux 1. Victor Chandler paid out on 'Total Goals Fewer Than 4' at 11/4.
