Another candidate for the final victory of this Champions League, besides Barcelona who remain the favorites, is Lyon. The French team manages to raise the bar every year and this year there is a distinct feeling that they could go all the way to the final for the umpteenth time in recent years.
The team of former Juventus coach Montemurro put things right in the first leg against Bayern Munich, winning 2-0 and earning a big part of their qualification. No, in this match there will be no shocks of any kind, unlike what could happen in the other game scheduled for Wednesday evening.
Real Madrid are taking a big risk in their London away game against Arsenal. Despite last week’s two-nil win – which was followed by another win in the league for the Madrid team who beat Barcelona for the first time – it’s a result that, especially considering the strength of the home team, remains absolutely in the balance. In this case, therefore, the situation is wide open and we wouldn’t be surprised if, in the end, it’s the Londoners who go through to the semi-finals of the Champions League.
