TThe Champions League put the finishing touches on the penultimate game of the league campaign. This Week 7 competition has seen almost every match played, making things very tough at the top of the standings. Only Arsenal and Bayern are guaranteed a place in the last 16. The battle continues beneath them, and it will become extremely fierce.
Real Madrid, Liverpool (15 points) and Tottenham (14 points) follow the Gunners and Bayern. Behind them are eight teams with 13 points. This war scenario left the finale with some important surprises that greatly compressed the classification, such as Athletic’s meritorious victory in Bergamo and the respective defeats of PSG and Manchester City against Sporting Lisbon and Bodo/Glimt.
As for the Spanish national team, Madrid are almost certain to advance to the last eight. The next best team after Los Blancos is Barça, who will almost certainly finish in the top eight if they beat Copenhagen at home in the final match. In any case, Flick will have to keep an eye on what happens at other stadiums.
For example, what is happening at Metropolitano. Atlético, who have the same points as the Catalans, need a win against Bodo/Glimt to have a chance of finishing in the top eight.
