UEFA will make the decision at an executive committee meeting today and Wembley, which hosted this year's final in May, is believed to be favourite.
It is The Football Association's 150th anniversary in 2013 and it may persuade UEFA to return the game to the stadium.
Wembley's hosting of this year's final was a resounding financial success with Barcelona producing a magnificent performance to beat Premier League champions Manchester United 3-1, inspired by the brilliant Lionel Messi.
As well as being a commercial triumph for UEFA, it also proved to be simple in terms of organisation, with no need to book extra marquees for hospitality events or media or any issues about technology.
If Wembley is chosen, some tickets are likely to be cheaper in 2013. In April, UEFA president Michel Platini apologised for the high cost of tickets and said they would consider introducing a cheaper category for families for future finals.
The cheapest tickets on general sale for the 2011 final were priced at £150 plus a £26 administration fee and the cheapest package for one adult and one child was only available in category two seats costing £338.
Platini said then: ‘It was a mistake, it was not good. But it is not easy to decide the price of the tickets in the Champions League final.
‘Perhaps in the future we have to have another category for families that is less expensive. But if you put those on the black market how much will they cost?’
