Last season the ideal final that many people hoped for happened too early, hopefully next season we can see the two best powers face each other in the final. In my opinion, Real Madrid and Manchester City will remain at the top of the list of favorite teams to win next season, Bayern Munich, Arsenal and several other teams will be below them. Change of match format will probably eliminate the dark horse teams more quickly, and allow the favorite teams to go further. Real Madrid, with its third volume of the Los Galacticos project, will be the club most feared by all contestants, and their chances of retaining the trophy in each competition are considered very high. In my opinion, that is a fact that is very difficult to deny at this time, because they have a number of star players in almost every sector, and they are accompanied by experienced managers.
Eventually it might happen, but I don’t still have hope that Manchester City can still make it to the finals because there are other teams that might surprise us. Let's not forget teams like Bayer Leverkusen and others. because last season no one expected Dortmund to make it to the final, and they did, so if we look at those active teams that are in the Champions League this upcoming season, we will be fully sure that many things are capable of happening, but for Real Madrid, I have no doubt due to their current squad of talented players, which I know they will come up with a different performance and strategy from last season, which will lead them to the trophy again.
Although everyone has their own view, even if some active teams in the Champions League are underestimated, they can still surprise many of us with a completely different performance, which we might be thinking is just because of luck, but they actually work for it, so let's just see how the season will even start.
