However, the odds will keep changing as the season progresses depending on the players&rsquo; contributions to the teams and their progression and wins through the season.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Updated Ballon d&rsquo;Or Winner Odds<\/h2><ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Kylian Mbappe &ndash; 2\/1 (+200)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mohammed Salah &ndash; 11\/4 (+275)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Raphinha &ndash; 3\/1 (+300)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Vinicius Jr &ndash; 9\/1 (+900)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lamine Yamal &ndash; 16\/1 (+1600)<\/li>\n<\/ul><p>Here is the breakdown of the Ballon d&rsquo;Or odds-<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Kylian Mbappe (2\/1)<\/h3><p>Real Madrid are still in the Champions League. Even though Mbappe&rsquo;s start to the season with Los Blancos has been slow, he has become a key player for the club. He&rsquo;s currently the second-highest goalscorer in La Liga and has already scored 7 goals in 11 UCL matches he has played.<\/p><p>If Mbappe maintains his form and Real Madrid manage to keep progressing and reach the final or win the trophy, there will be no doubt about his chances of winning the prestigious award.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Mohammed Salah (11\/4)<\/h3><p>Liverpool may have been knocked out of the Champions League, but they are still topping the Premier League. They are leading the table with 15 points from second-placed Arsenal. He&rsquo;s currently the highest goalscorer in the league with 27 goals to his name.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Raphinha (3\/1)<\/h3><p>The competition in La Liga is firing up among the three top clubs. However, Raphinha&rsquo;s contribution in Barcelona&rsquo;s success this season cannot be doubted. He has been one of their clutch players, scoring in whichever game the team went behind.<\/p><p>Barcelona are currently at the top of the La Liga table with the same points as second-placed Real Madrid having played one less game. They are also in tremendous form at UCL. Raphinha&rsquo;s odds may increase in the coming months depending on the team&rsquo;s situation.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Vinicius Jr (9\/1)<\/h3><p>With a star-studded squad, it&rsquo;s not a surprise that two Real Madrid players are competing for the Ballon d&rsquo;Or this season with a third &ndash; Jude Bellingham &ndash; not far behind. That&rsquo;s why, while Real Madrid&rsquo;s progression is important for all three players&rsquo; chances, so is their contribution.<\/p><p>Vinicius has been giving a tough competition to Mbappe this season. He&rsquo;s the joint scorer with Mbappe in the UCL with 7 goals and has also scored 10 goals in La Liga.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Lamine Yamal (16\/1)<\/h3><p>Being one of the youngest wonders of the season, Lamine Yamal is improving day by day and his contributions to La Blaugrana&rsquo;s tremendous form this season cannot be denied. The 17-year-old became the youngest to score and assist a goal in the Champions League against Benfica in the round of 16 second leg game. The Spanish prodigy is also leading La Liga in most assists (11) stats this season.<\/p><p><strong>(Odds via Bet365 as of March 12th, 2025)<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"mm-layout mm-layout-type-post mm-layout-slot4\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mo Salah&#8217;s Ballon d&#8217;Or hopes take a hit as Liverpool crashes out of the Champions League, with Mbappe now leading the race.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":30,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_mux_skip_reasons":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[4038],"tags":[4489,1555,4177,3949,3948,4488,1181,1180,1182,4125,3904,4490],"class_list":["post-28075","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-soccer","tag-ballon-dor","tag-barcelona","tag-champions-league","tag-kylian-mbappe","tag-la-liga","tag-lamine-yamal","tag-liverpool","tag-mo-salah","tag-premier-league","tag-raphinha","tag-real-madrid","tag-vinicius"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Liverpool&rsquo;s UCL Exit Has Plummeted Mo Salah&rsquo;s Ballon d&rsquo;Or Odds - The Playoffs<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Liverpool&rsquo;s UCL exit has dropped Mo Salah&rsquo;s Ballon d&rsquo;Or odds, with Mbappe taking the lead.
