We will talk about the pairs of 1/8 finals and what interesting matches will be waiting for the fans in the quarter -finals.
The unconditional favorite of the first half of the grid is the English “Manchester City”. In the starting round of the playoffs, the team of Josep Guardiola will play with al-Khilyal from Saudi Arabia. In case of victory, the next rival of the English club will be the strongest pair of Inter (Italy) – Fluminenses (Brazil). If there is no sensation, then Manchester City and Inter will play in the quarter -finals.
Also, in this part of the grid in the 1/8 finals, the Brazilian Palmeiras and Botapogo will play, as well as the Portuguese Benfica and the English Chelsea. There are no obvious favorites in these pairs.
In another part of the grid in the second round of the playoffs, the level of rivals is expected much higher.
The French “PSG” in case of victory over “Inter Miami” Lionel Messi in the quarter -finals will meet with the strongest pair of “Flmeno” (Brazil) – “Bavaria” (Germany). Obviously, the chances of Munich to go further at times higher. And the game “PSG” – “Bavaria” can become a decoration of the tournament.
The Madrid Real Madrid went to the rivals, the Turin Juventus, who received five goals from Manchester City in the final match in the group. “Old Signora” is unlikely to be able to go through formidable Madrid.
In another pair, the Dortmund Borussia will play with the Mexican Monterrem. The favorite here is a club from Europe. Also in the quarterfinals you can safely predict the repetition of the final of the Champions League 2024 Real Madrid – Borussia.
