Amir Khan vs Kell Brook odds and predictions for Manchester grudge fight

Amir Khan and Kell Brook are on a collision course for their bout later this month, with all eyes on their February 19th bout at the Manchester Arena.

The bout has been over a decade in the making, with Khan and Brook long-term rivals and having plenty of ill feeling towards one another.

This is down to the fact that Brook believes he hasn't been given the respect he deserves from his rival, while Khan feels that his Sheffield counterpart is merely jealous.

While the pair are beyond their prime years, an intriguing bout is on the cards on a packed night of action - and it's a difficult one to call.

Oddschecker shows that Kell Brook is narrowly the favourite, with a popular price of 10/13 and some markets having him odds-on for a win.

Khan, meanwhile, has a popular price of 6/4 and is seen as a slight outsider - although there's little to separate the two fighters.

Those who believe the fight will go the distance and ultimately end in a draw can find a good price available, with 22/1 being the longest odds and 16/1 being the shortest.

In the round-by-round breakdown, Brook is 16/1 to win in the eighth round, the shortest odds available per round, with round seven and nine victories for Brook both priced at 18/1.

Khan's standing as the underdog is shown clearly in this breakdown, with the Bolton fighter 40/1 for victory in the fifth, sixth and seventh rounds.

In comparison, Brook is the same price to win in the first round and Khan's equivalent price is 85/1 for a first-round victory.
