Champions League: A look at the remaining eight teams
The 2020-21 Champions League is now at the quarter-final stage and fans of all eight of the remaining teams will now start to feel quietly confident about their side’s chances of going on to win the tournament
Champions league Quarter Finals
The 2020-21 Champions League is now at the quarter-final stage and fans of all eight of the remaining teams will now start to feel quietly confident about their side’s chances of going on to win the tournament. However, those dreams could be shattered next month when the quarter-finals take place.For some teams, getting this far is an achievement in itself, but for others, exiting in the quarter-finals is not an option. So, read on as we take a look at all eight of the remaining teams.
Paris Saint-Germain
Last year’s finalists Paris Saint-Germain will be doing all they can to ensure they redeem their agonising 1-0 defeat to Bayern Munich in last year’s showpiece, which was their first appearance in a Champions League final. PSG brushed aside Barcelona in the round of 16, winning 5-2 on aggregate, and they will fear no foes in their pursuit of glory.Liverpool
Six-time champions Liverpool haven’t had the best of times domestically. However, they breezed past RB Leipzig into the quarter-finals of the Champions League, winning 4-0 on aggregate. There are bigger fish to fry in the competition if the Reds want to add a seventh title to their trophy cabinet and they will need to be at the best of their ability if they are to do so.Bayern Munich
Bayern Munich are arguably the team to beat again this year. If you do sports betting from your mobile, you’d have noticed that the German giants are favourites to win the Champions League and all of the remaining teams will want to avoid Hans-Dieter Flick’s men, who thrashed Lazio 6-2 on aggregate to reach the quarter-finals.Manchester City
Manchester City are still on the hunt for their first Champions League title. It’s somewhat of a mystery that the Premier League side are yet to use their financial backing to get their hands on Europe’s top competition. Every year seems to be the year they are tipped to win, but could this be their time? We’ll have to wait and see.Chelsea
When Chelsea were drawn to face Atlético Madrid in the round of 16 back in December, not many would have fancied the west London side’s chances of reaching the last eight. However, Thomas Tuchel, who replaced Frank Lampard, has steadied the ship and the Blues will be no pushovers in the quarter-finals.Real Madrid
Whilst Real Madrid can never truly be written off, they won’t be as feared by the rest of the pack as they once were. Zinedine Zidane’s side look disjointed at the best of times, and despite easing past Atalanta, most of the remaining teams will certainly fancy their chances against Los Blancos.Porto
Porto are the quarter-finals’ surprise package. Few would have expected the Portuguese outfit to get past Juventus and the prowess of Cristiano Ronaldo. However, they did just that, progressing to the last eight on away goals and they must not be underestimated by anyone.Borussia Dortmund
Borussia Dortmund have the ability to throw a spanner in the works. Erling Håland is every defender’s worst nightmare and keeping him at bay proves to be a difficult task. Dortmund’s downfall, however, is their leaky defence and teams will be out to exploit that at every given opportunity. Their quarter-final promises to be a goal fest.Upcoming Champions League Matches
AC Milan

Crvena zvezda
AC Milan came back well in this edition of the Champions League having won their last three matches against Slovan Bratislava while still being very scared at the edges 2-3 , against Real Madrid at the Bernabéu 1-3, and for the reception of Club Bruges 3-1 , or three goals scored per match. We will still remember that the Milanese started with two defeats against Liverpool 1-3, and Bayer Leverkusen 1-0. 16th at the start of this 6th day of the Champions, the Rossoneri have a bonus on an unbeaten run of 6 matches in all competitions but are not in the top 4 of Serie A. Last week, they tried to make pass this series to eight matches, in the Italian Cup against Sassuolo to follow, and in the championship during the weekend against Atalanta, runner-up of Calcio to follow. On the other side of the median, we are not talking about a worrying formation for the great European competition but extremely difficult to play.
As a bonus, the Serbs will surely be fired up and ready to destroy everything following their first victory in this edition of the Champions against Stuttgart on the previous day 5-1 . In addition, the morale of the players is up following their success immediately on the pitch of Mladost 0-2. Let's see now if they will be able to increase their current good energy against TSC Backa Topola and Tekstilac Odzaci last week in the championship to follow.

Arsenal

Monaco
The Gunners responded brilliantly to their 1-0 defeat to Inter at the Giuseppe Meazza, literally crushing Viktor Gyökeres' Sporting in Portugal 1-5. A winning victory a few days later via a success in the championship, at West Ham 2-5, which allowed them to record a 2nd consecutive victory in the PL after that gleaned after the break against Nottingham Forrest 3-0 . Coming back to the C1, Arteta's men are positioned in the top 8 with the same number of points as their evening counterparts, so suffice to say that this poster will be taken very seriously by the latter. As preparation, Arsenal crossed swords with United and Fulham last week in the Premier League to follow. From the start, AS Monaco was hot by beating Barça at Louis II 2-1.
In the process, the Monegasques went to score 1 point on the pitch of Dinamo Zagreb in Croatia in torrential rain 2-2, before destroying Red Star Belgrade in the Principality 5-1 and Bologna on the road 0-1. On the other hand, during the previous day, in a poster somewhat truncated by highly doubtful refereeing, ASM lost against Benfica, notably because of a double of assists from Angel Di Maria 2-3 . Even outnumbered, Hütter's men showed self-sacrifice and continued to worry the Portuguese by even scoring the 2-1 goal at ten against eleven, before finally sinking. In the process, the residents of Le Rocher lost a decisive match in Ligue 1 against Marseille at the Vélodrome 2-1.

Slovan Bratislava
Eager to reach the next phase of the Champions League , Atletico Madrid is now in 15th place in the rankings with a small point behind 8th, last qualified for the round of 16, and 5 ahead on the 25th, who will not participate in the play-offs. During the first 5 days, the Colchoneros suffered setbacks at Benfica 4-0 and against Lille at home 1-3. Otherwise, they managed to dominate Leipzig 2-1 and PSG 1-2 before inflicting a real correction on Sparta Prague two weeks ago 0-6. In La Liga, Atletico Madrid is currently 3rd and positioned just behind the two behemoths that are Barcelona and Real Madrid . Considered one of the weakest teams in this Champions League, Slovan does not defy the predictions.
Tigran Barseghyan's teammates are simply not at the level and have not pocketed a single point until now. They are currently second to last in the table and were clearly beaten by Celtic 5-1, Manchester City 0-4, Girona 2-0 and Dinamo Zagreb 1-4 before showing more resistance, without avoiding the defeat, against AC Milan on the last day 2-3 . Dominant on the national scene, the team based in Bratislava has won its last six championships and intends to win a 7th title in a row this season.

Bologna
A serious campaign is to the credit of Benfica, 14th in the ranking with a record of 3 wins and 2 defeats. Two weeks ago, the Lisbon club bounced back on the European scene by winning in Monaco 2-3 , to forget their defeats during the 3rd and 4th days of the league phase. It is well positioned in the race for qualification, the 25th and first eliminated club being 5 points behind. The club's objective in this final stretch of the league phase will be to enter a top 8 which is only one point away from its balance sheet, in order to qualify directly for the round of 16 of the C1. Benfica is 3rd in the national exercise behind Sporting and Porto. Since his victory in Monaco, the Portuguese vice-champion traveled to the poorly ranked Arouca and hosted Guimarães on Saturday. Bologna's dream qualification for the Champions League turned into an obstacle course. The Rossoblu signed an opening draw against Shakhtar 0-0, on September 18, before stringing together 4 defeats.
They are positioned in 33rd place in the ranking, 5 lengths from 24th place, the last offering a ticket for the play-offs. Flawless results are hoped for by the entire club over the 3 remaining matches. However, this may not be enough if the teams in the race for qualification also achieve good results. Bologna are the last team in the competition to score their first goal. The Serie A residents waited until the 5th day against Lille, defeated 1-2 , to unlock their counter in the offensive sector. In the championship, the Bolognese achieved several good results before the November break to move back into the standings. They are 8th before receiving Venice and going to Turin on Saturday to challenge Juventus.

Dortmund
Wednesday, 11 December 2024
9:00 pm
Barcelona
Dortmund is having a very serious first part of the campaign in this new Champions League format. After five days, the finalist of the last edition has picked up 4 wins and a defeat, facing their tormentor of the last final, Real Madrid 5-2. A performance which allows it to place itself in 4th position, 3 points behind leader Liverpool. Borussia is virtually qualified directly for the round of 16 with three matches remaining in the epilogue of the league phase. Winner at Dinamo Zagreb 0-3 two weeks ago, BVB has since held the German ogre, Bayern Munich, 1-1 in the league before traveling to Mönchengladbach last Saturday. If Dortmund is rather sure of its strengths on the European scene, this is not yet the case in the Bundesliga. Nuri Sahin's team is only 5th in the standings as the first leg is about to end.
Barça has the same record as its opponent in this European campaign: 4 victories and one defeat. The Blaugrana have not failed since they fell in the opening match at Monaco 2-1. They then asserted their superiority over Young Boys Bern 5-0, Bayern Munich 4-1, Red Star Belgrade 2-5 and finally Brest 3-0. These successful successes make Hansi Flick's team the best attack in the competition with 18 goals scored in five games, an average of more than three per match. 3rd in the league phase, Barça is at the same time at the top of the La Liga standings but has been going through a zone of turbulence for several weeks. Unable to win his last three matches, he was defeated at home by Las Palmas 1-2 and then traveled to Mallorca and Betis Sevilla before traveling again this Wednesday to Dortmund.

Feyenoord
Wednesday, 11 December 2024
9:00 pm
Sparta Prague
The local club of the day, Feyenoord, has alternated between good and bad since the start of this Champions League phase. The Dutch club recorded 2 victories on the road, against Girona 2-3 and Benfica 1-3, but was dominated at home by Leverkusen 0-4 and Salzburg 1-3. On the last day, however, he did well by going for the point of the draw at Manchester City 3-3. Feyenoord was however trailing 3-0 a quarter of an hour from the end of the match. His results make him 21st in the ranking. The Rotterdam-based club is ahead of PSG, 25th and first club virtually eliminated, by 3 points. On the national scene, the vice-champion of the Netherlands is currently 4th. A placement below the expectations of its supporters.
Since taking a point at Manchester City, Feyenoord were held to a 1-1 draw by Sittard before traveling to low-ranked Waalwijk on Saturday. On the other side of the halfway line, Sparta Prague will have a lot to do not to take the door in the league phase. He conceded 3 losses, the last of which was a correction against Atlético de Madrid 0-6 two weeks ago after having pocketed 4 points during the first two days. The reigning double champion of the Czech Republic, 28th in the league phase, is 2 points behind the top 24 in which it will be necessary to be in to reach the round of 16 places 1 to 8 or the play-offs places 9 to 24. There is no room for optimism in the league for Lars Friss' team either. It is only 4th in the ranking with 16 points behind its rival from Prague, Slavia. Sparta did not win any of their last 6 matches in all competitions before hosting Karvina and Bohemians last week in the league.

Juventus

9:00 pm
Manchester City
The Old Lady is literally stalling in this Champions League having not won any of its last three scores in the competition, including two draws to date against Lille 1-1, without a visit against Aston Villa in London 0-0, and even a setback for the reception of Stuttgart, being generally dominated in the meeting 0-1. Race results, with 8 points, Juventus ranks 19th in this league phase. In order to take a step back from Juve's good season, the defeat against Stuttgart was the only one since the start of the TCC season. Facing Bologna last weekend, Thiago Motta's men tried not to concede a second, and at the same time react in Serie A after two points sharing with AC Milan 0-0, and Lecce 1-1.Six times champion of England since his arrival, and above all winner of the last four seasons, Pep Guardiola is going through his worst period at the head of the SkyBlues.
Since Rodri won the Ballon d'Or , City have not won in all competitions for a terrible record of six defeats and one draw. The championship probably finished, the Cityzens will probably aim for this Champions League which they won two years ago against Inter in the final 1-0. However, like Juventus, Man City can no longer do it in Champions with a consequent defeat on the Sporting pitch with a hat-trick from Mr. Viktor Gyökeres 4-1, and above all a very difficult parity score against the Feyenoord a fortnight ago, when they led 3-0 at the dawn of the last quarter of an hour of the match, final score: 3-3.

Lille

Sturm Graz
Not really expected to play for a place in the top 8 of this Champions League, Lille can nevertheless nourish the ambition of qualifying directly for the 1/8 finals of the competition without having to go through the play-offs. Losc is in 12th place in the ranking with 10 points on the clock. It is as much as the 6th, Bayer Leverkusen. It must be said that Bruno Genesio's men have delivered excellent performances so far. After being picked up cold by a formidable Sporting 2-0, they beat both Madrid teams, Real 1-0 and Atlético 1-3 before holding Juventus to a draw 1-1. Finally, on the last day, the Mastiffs went for another deserved success on the Bologna field 1-2. At the same time, in Ligue 1, the Northerners are fighting for a place on the podium and they will try to climb on the box in the coming days by challenging Montpellier and Brest.
Opposite, Sturm Graz does not have the same objectives during these last days of the Champions League. Not really at the level of its opponent of the day, the Austrian club is only in 29th place in the competition rankings with 3 points in the bag. It must be said that he lost his first 4 duels in the tournament against Brest 2-1, Club Bruges 0-1, Sporting 0-2 and Dortmund 1-0 before finally unlocking his score in the last day with quite a bit of success against Girona 1-0. These difficulties in C1 contrast with the good performances achieved by the Blackies in the championship where they are at the top of the Austrian Bundesliga with a good lead already over the competition. Before going to the North, they will challenge Rheindorf Altach and Wattens.

Stuttgart
Wednesday, 11 December 2024
9:00 pm
Young Boys
Stuttgart retains a chance of qualifying despite a heavy defeat in Belgrade 5-1 and a meager total of 4 points in 5 games like PSG. Honorably beaten at Real Madrid 3-1, the Germans then conceded a draw against Sparta Prague at home 1-1 before surprising Juventus in Turin 0-1. However, they were clearly dominated by Atalanta 0-2 on the penultimate day, before the debacle in Serbia. In the Bundesliga, VfB alternates between irregular performances: beaten by Frankfurt before the break 2-3, it reacted against Bochum 2-0 before securing a draw at Bremen 2-2. Young Boys are going through a difficult season in the Champions League with five defeats in five games.
The Bernese club was beaten by Aston Villa 3-0, Barça 5-0, Inter 0-1, Shakhtar Donetsk 2-1 and, even more heavily, at home against Atalanta 1-6. With only two goals scored against 17 conceded, their record is insufficient to hope to shine in this prestigious competition. In the championship, the double reigning champion is also struggling, occupying 9th place, four points from the top 6 qualifying for the final phase. Despite a victory against Lugano 2-1 before the break, they then conceded a draw at Lucerne 1-1 before returning to success against Saint-Gall 3-1.
