Arsenal VS Real Madrid
Arsenal host Real Madrid in the first of two massive matchups! Arsenal are coming into this game off the back of a 1-all draw with Everton and they currently find themselves second in the Premier League! When it comes to Real Madrid, they enter this game off the back off the back of a shock 2-1 home defeat against Valencia and they currently sit second in LaLiga! Overall, with Real Madrid being the reigning Champions, it’s vital for Arsenal to get a win here!
My Prediction: 2-2
Bayern Munich VS Inter Milan
Bayern Munich welcome Inter Milan to the Allianz Arena for what could turn out to be a closely fought tie! Bayern Munich are coming into this game off the back of a 3-1 win at Augsburg and they currently lead the Bundesliga! When it comes to Inter Milan, they enter this game off the back of a 2-2 draw away at Parma and they currently find themselves top of Serie A! In their previous 4 meetings, Bayern have won 3 games compared to 1 win for Inter! Overall, this is a really difficult game to call, but Bayern have to be able to score!
My Prediction: 1-1
Barcelona VS Borussia Dortmund
Barcelona and Borussia Dortmund clash in a tie that presents great opportunities for both! Barcelona are coming into this game off the back of a 1-1 draw against Real Betis and they currently lead LaLiga! When it comes to Borussia Dortmund, they enter this game off the back of a 4-1 thrashing over Freiburg and they currently sit 8th in the Bundesliga! In their previous 3 meetings, Barca have won twice whilst the other game ended in a draw, and it’s worth mentioning that Barcelona managed to win in Dortmund back in December (2-3)! Overall, this should be an exciting game to watch!
My Prediction: 2-1
PSG VS Aston Villa
Paris Saint-Germain host Aston Villa in what should be an interesting matchup! PSG are coming into this game off the back of a 1-0 win over Angers and they’ve already managed to secure yet another Ligue 1 Title! When it comes to Aston Villa, they enter this game off the back of a 2-1 win over Nottingham Forest and they currently sit 6th in the Premier League! Overall, this is a massive test for Aston Villa, and a massive opportunity for PSG!
