As the first league in European football today, the Premier League's achievements in the Champions League in recent years are very dazzling, and the phenomenon of winning the championship and runner-up can be said to be endless, it is no exaggeration to say that looking at the entire European football world, it is estimated that Bayern can pose some threats. What's more, Manchester City, Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool, the four teams participating in the Champions League, have strengthened their squads in the new season and have significantly improved their strength.
Liverpool and Manchester City in the Champions League group stage performance can be described as a devastating, Liverpool in the group stage opponents although there are two strong teams of Atletico Madrid and AC Milan, but Klopp can still lead the team to win 6 consecutive wins in the group stage, strong as the first place in the group to enter the Champions League knockout stage, Manchester City is to pressure the three giants of Messi, Neymar and Mbappe Paris Saint-Germain and high in the group table.
Chelsea are mainly affected by injuries, thus regrettably losing the top position in the Champions League group, once Tuchel's squad is complete, it is estimated that opponents will feel headaches, in fact, from the comprehensive performance of both offensive and defensive ends, healthy Chelsea is more terrifying than Manchester City and Liverpool. The four Premier League teams participating in this season's Champions League are manchester United, but the Red Devils still finish first in the group.
Entering the Champions League round of 16 is only the most basic goal of the four teams in the Premier League, and the opponents encountered in the knockout draw will affect to some extent how far the team can go, but for Chelsea, Manchester City and Liverpool who are aiming to win the championship, it does not matter whether they meet anyone 1/8, as long as they play their due strength, it is not too difficult to laugh at the end of the two-legged game, and the only thing to worry about is Manchester United.
Manchester United's paper strength is not weak, at least in European football is also the top level, but Ole Gunnar Solskjaer can not let the Red Devils play the maximum combat effectiveness, the new manager Rangnick can bring Manchester United to what height, this still has time to evaluate, so the opponent drawn in 1/8 is very critical. Compared to the first draw to Paris Saint-Germain, it is still a good result to meet Atletico Madrid again.
Atletico's strength is not what it used to be, the iron-blooded defense on which they became famous has long disappeared, and now that they have met the big nemesis C Ronaldo again, it is too difficult to pass the Manchester United level. If there is no accident, there is a high probability that the four teams in the Premier League will reach the top eight of the Champions League at the same time, which will undoubtedly become a football spectacle, and it is believed that it is difficult for teams in other leagues to achieve this feat. In addition, Liverpool, Manchester City and Chelsea will attack the champions, and this season's Champions League is expected to once again appear in the Premier League teams to win the championship and runner-up, let us wait and see.
