The 2023/24 Champions league group stages has been rounded up with draws for the knockout fixtures expected on Monday, December 18, 2023.
As usual, European heavyweights such as Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Manchester City, and Barcelona finished top of their groups, and are expected to challenge for the trophy.
PSG and Arsenal are among top teams in the competition with a squad depth enough to challenge for the title.
Amid speculations on who is more likely to challenge for the title, Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti has already tipped his star-studded Real Madrid side to go all out for the title. However, he has identified the team he believes can challenge his squad for the trophy.
Despite Los Blancos securing the European championship 14 times, they were eliminated last season by Pep Guardiola's Manchester City, who went on to claim their first title.
Now, bolstered by the impressive performance of Jude Bellingham, Real Madrid is determined to pursue UCL glory once more as they target a 15th title in the 2023/24 campaign.
Leading Group C with 18 points from the six matches this season, Ancelotti disclosed the team he believes will contend with his squad for the trophy this season.
Real Madrid were unbeaten in the UCL group stage, as are the Citizens. However, the English side are not faring as well in the Premier League.
Following three consecutive draws against Chelsea, Liverpool, and Tottenham Hotspur, Man City suffered a defeat to Unai Emery's impressive Aston Villa last week, per UEFA.
Guardiola's side managed to secure a narrow 2-1 victory against Luton Town over the weekend, with attention drawn to the manager's unpredictable touchline behaviour.
Despite participating in various competitions, City faces challenges with injuries to key players like Kevin De Bruyne, Erling Haaland, and Jeremy Doku, making opposing teams more optimistic about their chances against last season's treble-winners.
