Soon, football fans' eyes will be spoiled by great players who will show their actions in the Champions League. Several teams have already built their squads even more solidly than before to face Europe's elite club competition and will have a very different look for the 2024-25 season.
In its predictions, The Opta supercomputer places Manchester City as the strongest candidate to win the Champions League trophy, while Real Madrid is placed in second place and in third place is Inter Milan. Meanwhile, Arsenal, Barcelona, Leverkusen, Liverpool and other elite clubs are next in line.
What do you think, will Manchester City win again after failing to defend the title last season or will Real Madrid return to glory in this elite competition. Then can other teams like Leverkusen, PSG, Arsenal, Barcelona and Liverpool provide a surprise this season?

Many big teams are still favorites to win the Champions League this season, such as Madrid and Manchester City, but to be honest, I don't believe the predictions made by the supercomputer even though the predictions are based on every data related to the clubs that currently exist and analyze it to find the chances of each club to win the Champions League this season, I think the Opta supercomputer does analyze a teamchances based on every fact and currently available data, but it seems that the computer team forgotten that football is a sport that is difficult for even supercomputers to predict because of the surprise and luck factors that cannot be analyzed, Like last season, Opta also predicted that Manchester City to be champions league winners, but in fact Madrid and Dortmund which managed to reach the final, so should we believe this prediction?
