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
Dyn. Kyiv

Partizan
Dynamo kyiv, 16 league titles, has been letting the title slip away for 3 years now in favor of S.Donetsk. Last year the 2 leading teams of the local championship did not let go of one another, however 2 will separate them at the finish. Consequently, 2nd place allows Dynamo to qualify for the Champions League, from the 2nd round in this case. Present during the group stages of the 2016, 2017, 2021 and 2022 Champions League, during the latter Dynamo had the misfortune of joining the group of death along with Bayern, Benfica and Barcelona.
kyiv finished in 4th place with 1 small point on the clock. Opposite, Partizan Belgrade shares a particularity with its opponent of the day, namely that it does not have the chance to dominate in its local championship over the last 10 years in general. Indeed, the title has eluded Partizan for years, to the delight of Red Star who no longer let it go. Qualified for this 2nd round, the draw did not spare Partizan Belgrade, traveling to the Napredak pitch for the resumption of the Serbian championship last weekend, FKP made the difference at the very end of the match by intermediate from Matheus Saldanha in the 93rd minute of play 0-1 his best player.

FCSB

7:00 pm
Maccabi Tel Aviv
The reigning Romanian champion absolutely did not laugh in the first round by inflicting two corrections on Virtus Acquaviva 1-7 in the first leg and 4-0 in the return, making 11-1 in total for the two matches. It is clear that FCSB hopes to do well in these Champions qualifiers. Note that the Romanian Superliga has resumed its rights, and last weekend, the evening locals will have tried to officially launch their season in the elite on the lawn of the promoted Unirea Slobozia. During the first day, they had to settle for a draw for the reception of U.Cluj 1-1. Opposite, we find the formation of Maccabi Tel Aviv which has just launched its season with a trophy with a coronation in the Israeli Super Cup against Petach Tikva 2-0.
This success simply validated a very good period of preparation punctuated by three friendly matches without conceding the slightest defeat including two victories against the Poles of Ruch initially 0-5 and a less striking success against the Cypriots of Omonia 2 -0. In the meantime, the reigning Israeli champion was caught by Rakow, still in a friendly 0-0. After two seasons dominated by Maccabi Haifa, the Tel Aviv yellows regained their championship crown for the 25th time in their history. The last national championship title dated before the Covid-19 pandemic 2019-20.

TNS
Qualified during the group stages of the Champions League in 2021, qualified in the Europa League during the 2020, 2022 and 2023 group stages, Ferencvaros is a regular in European competitions, one of the very big fish of this 2nd round of qualifications. In Hungary, on the local scene, no one rivals Ferencvaros, victorious in the last 6 titles. During their last friendly match on Monday August 15, Ferencvaros had the opportunity to test themselves and deliver a great performance against the West Ham Hammers 2-2 in Austria on neutral ground. Football club from a village of less than 1000 inhabitants, The New Saints or TNS, does not box in the same category as its opponent of the day.
Local champion in 2022, 2023 and 2024, the Welsh team hopes to create the greatest feat in its history, already having had the chance to qualify for this 2nd round. Indeed, the residents of the 2000-seat Park Hall beat the Montenegrins of Decic Tuzi 1-1/3-0 and for the 3rd time in their history find themselves in the 2nd round of qualifying for the Champions League.

Lincoln Red Imps
Tuesday, 23 July 2024
6:00 pm
Qarabag
Champion of Gibraltar for the 4th time in a row, Lincoln is back in the race for European qualification but fails each time, and rightly so as their football is still well below average. In the first round, Lincoln was even able to consider himself lucky to take the very average Macedonian team of Hamrun, and it was necessary to fight until the penalty shootout stage to go to the end, despite its narrow victory in the first leg. -0, 0-1 defeat on the return leg. We will still note that the locals participated in the group stage of the Conference League during the 2021-22 season but for a cataclysmic record of six defeats - POAK Salonika, Slovan Bratislava, Copenhagen. Opposite, we find a formation of Qarabag, well known since it regularly participates in European qualifiers and even plays in the group stages.
Crowned champion of Azerbaijan for the 9th time in a row, FK enters these qualifications without having needed to pass the first round. Last season, he reached the stage of the 1/8 finals of the Europa League, beaten by the unbeatable Leverkusen team coached by Xabi Alonso but without being shabby either despite the class of difference in terms in squad and overall level defeat 4-5 in the two matches. During the summer, the Cavaliers participated in four preseason games. It started badly against the Germans of Kaiserlautern 1-3 before going on to three victories against the very serious team of Plzen 1-2, against the Croats of Slaven Belupo 0-1 and lastly against the Saudi team of Al Shabab 2-5.

Lugano

Fenerbahce
Lugano's goal will be to take advantage of being at home this evening to try and win because winning in Istanbul is far from the easiest thing to do. Clearly, no defeat for the locals this evening, who as a reminder finished in 2nd place in the Swiss D1 behind the dominant Young Boys of Berne but well ahead of Servette. At the end of the season, however, they lost in the final of the national cup against Servette TAB. A defeat that goes badly because it is a lost title opportunity and also rewards their great campaign last year. This summer, Lugano moved through friendly preparation matches and the results are satisfactory with 3 victories in 4 matches against Nyonnais 2-0, Bellinzona 5-1 and lastly against the promoted to SA, Parma 3-1 . There was a defeat against Aarhus 0-1. For the 3rd successive year, Fenerbahce had to settle for places of honor in the championship. Despite a season with no less than 99 points on the clock, that wasn't enough to finish champion! And yes, Galatasaray had a season with 102 points.
The two rivals have literally soiled the Turkish championship, the 3rd Trabzonspor remained below the 70 point mark... Edin Dzeko's teammates will probably be keen to win everything this season but also to qualify for this League Champions who have not been seen since the 2008-09 season. In preparation, the yellow canaries took on Strasbourg 0-4 and Petrolul, Romanian D1 club 2-1. On the other hand, there was a defeat against Hajduk Split 0-1 and a parity score against the Austrians of Admira 1-1.

Klaksvik
A renowned club in Sweden, including a certain Zlatan who joined the club at the start of his career, Malmö won the championship last season for the 23rd time in its history. At the start of the season, we can say that the locals intend to achieve the back to back by being solid leaders with four points ahead of Djurgarden 2nd. Last weekend, the Swedes tried to forget their misstep on the Mjallby lawn 2-1 during their trip to the Sirius meadow to follow. Unlike Malmö, Klaksvik had to participate in a first round of preliminary. Successful mission against the Luxembourgers from Differdange, notably thanks to their victory in the first round 2-0.
In management on the return, neither team was able to find the fault 0-0. Currently 3rd in their championship, the Faroese are already significantly behind leader Vikingur by 9 points. Note that last weekend, they did not play in order to have a week of preparation for this first leg. Casually, in all competitions, Klaksvik will travel on a series of four matches without defeat including three victories including two in the championship, in quick succession against B36 Torshavn 4-2 and on the Runavik meadow 1-2.

Sparta Prague
The current 4th in the Irish championship got rid of the Icelandic trap proposed by Vikingur in the previous round 0-0 in the first leg, victory 2-1 in the return. No championship on the program last weekend but a 1/16th final of the national cup against the very serious formation of Bohemians to follow. Note that the Dublin residents remained on a championship victory before their first qualifying round, facing Dundalk at home 1-0. Last weekend, this Sparta Prague team will have returned to school and will begin his title defense season against Pardubice at home to follow. An important match to fill up on gas before this perilous trip to Ireland. 14 times Czech champion and above all double title holder, Sparta clearly also has European ambitions with a heavy elimination..
In the 1/8th final of the last edition of the Europa League, against the Liverpool Reds 2-11 on the two matches.... The Czechs participated in four friendly preparation matches for a record of 2 victories against AIK Stockholm 3-1 and the Slovaks of Trnava 3-0, a defeat against Brondby 2-5 and a score parity to close the campaign against Red Bull Salzburg 2-2.

UE Santa Coloma

Midtjylland
AMAZING ! UE Santa Coloma did it! He achieved the feat of progressing to this 2nd round by taking out a club which played in the Conference League last season, FC Ballkani. After a defeat in the first leg at home 1-2, the Andorran team played in numerical superiority for more than a half but had to wait for a CSC in stoppage time in the 2nd period to go into overtime. At 10 against 11, the Kosovars gave in in the 102nd minute before losing in the penalty shootout. The level will go up a notch, so it's not the Tourmalet, but the Danish team still seems to be a first category opponent for the locals. Midtjylland is the favorite in this double opposition and rightly so and it will have to confirm its status.
We are still talking about the reigning Danish champion, who also put an end to the domination of Copenhagen, a club which played in the 1/8 finals of the Champions League during the previous edition. The Wolves clearly want to overcome their elimination in the Conference League play-off last season which prevented them from participating in any European competition. During the pre-season, they participated in four friendlies with victories against Aarhus 4-0 and against Schalke 04 2-4. They still suffered a setback against the very convincing formation of Sturm Graz 1-0.

Celje

Slovan Bratislava
The Slovenes of Celje, reigning champions ahead of Maribor, started their qualifying campaign with a first round against the Estonians of Flora Tallinn who wanted to be prolific with in particular a large victory in the first leg on the road 0-5 and a less prestigious success at home 2-1. During the summer preparation, Celje won two of its five friendly matches for a record of two defeats and a draw. Slovan Bratislava won the national championship for the 6th time in a row, well ahead of Dun. Streda 15 points behind gap nonetheless.
Dominant therefore, the SkyBlues passed the Macedonian step of Struga in the first round by also winning their two matches 4-2 and 1-2 on the return. In a preparation friendly, the falcons won two of their four matches, against BW Linz 1-5 and against Petrzalka 1-0. There are also two defeats against an opponent qualified for this 2nd round of the Champions qualifiers, Ludogorets 1-0 and against the Romanian giant, CFR Cluj 1-0.

Ludogorets

8:00 pm
Din. Minsk
The Bulgarian club Ludogorets, juggernaut of the country and title holder for the 13th consecutive season, will try to promote the nation in these European qualifications and this bore fruit in the first round with a success in the two matches against the Georgians Dinamo Batumi 3-1 victory in the first leg, 1-0 defeat in the return. This first qualifying round adds to an excellent summer preparation with four victories in four matches. Written successes against Primorje 5-0, Slovan Bratislava 1-0, against St. Gallen 0-2 and against the Romanian club Universitatea Craiova 4-1.
On the other side of the median, there is the presence of Dinamo Minsk, current leader of the Belarusian championship who took out the Armenians from Puynik in the first round with the smallest of scores 0-0 in the first leg, victory 0-1 when returning outside. Note that the visitors have not lost a single match for more than three months now, May 8 to be precise, an impressive series of 11 matches without defeat TCC for a record of 9 victories. Better yet, Dinamo remains on five successive victories in the elite and will play its 1/8th final of the national cup in three days against Neman.

PAOK
Wednesday, 24 July 2024
7:30 pm
Borac Banja Luka
Greek champion ahead of outgoing champion AEK Athens with only two points, PAOK had a thunderous end to the season, notably winning its last four days of the championship. The objective now: Qualify for the Champions League. The road will be long for the 1/4 finalist of the last edition of the Europa Conference League but it starts this evening. During the summer, the Greeks participated in no less than five friendly matches for a terrible record of four defeats against Hibernian 0-1, Genk 3-1, Union Saint-Gilloise 1-2 and the Dutch Vitesse 2 -1. Opposite, the Bosnians clearly had their backs hot during the first round of these qualifications against the Albanians of Egnatia.
Already, on the first leg, they had to wait for the numerical superiority to score the winning goal at home 1-0 but on the return leg, they had to go to the fateful penalty shootout to qualify. The step could be too high against PAOK, especially if Borac does not raise its level of play. Reigning national champions, the visitors will return to the path to the championship following their two matches against the Greeks.
