Juve-Bayern looks like a fantastic matchup. It's a rematch of 2013 when Bayern eliminated them 4-0 on aggregate on their way to the title. Before that they've been drawn together in group play 3 times. In 2009 Bayern eliminated them with a convincing 4-1 win at Juve. Before that Juve finished 1st and Bayern 2nd in their '05/'06 and '04/'05 group stages. In '04/'05 Juve won both games 1-0 including a last minute winner by Del Piero at the Olympiastadion.
I am very much excited with the upcoming matches and I am definitely showing my support for Chelsea through all the means that I can. I am just a newbie fan as my friends introduced me to football just recently. Because I do tend to show how a die hard fan I am and because I have started collect all sorts of football merchandise, I bought a paid version of the Chelsea FC theme in Galaxy store. If you want to try it too just searched for the Chelsea FC theme in the Galaxy store and clicked on the first result.
Last eight: Wolfsburg Real Madrid Bayern Munich Benfica Barcelona Atlético Madrid Paris Saint-Germain Manchester City Barcelona or Bayern will be the champion, I predict.
I predict: Bayern vs Benfica: 2-0 Barca vs Atletico: 1-1 Wolfsburg vs Real: 1-2 PSG vs City: 3-1 Benfica vs Bayern: 3-2 Atletico vs Barca: 2-1 Real vs Wolfsburg: 3-0 PSG vs City: 2-2 So Bayern, Atletico, Real, PSG in semis. Note that I didnt put Barca out just because they lost the clasico (not sure they even tried) but because I think if one team can kick them this year its Atletico, and I bet since the beginning on Atletico winning this CL
I predict this: Bayern 4-0 Benfica Barcelona 3-1 Atletico Wolfsburg 1-3 Real Madrid PSG 4-1 Man City Benfica 2-2 Bayern Atletico 0-1 Barcelona Real Madrid 3-1 Wolfsburg Man City 2-2 PSG
