Bayern in the Champions League as a rule never spared their opponents and dealt with them harshly without hesitation, but this season for Bayern is really quite average, both in the Bundesliga and in the Champions League. They look ok overall though, I don't know, it's like that tough core they've lost
There are clubs that have belted up this season and are striving for important results and growth, they don't stop from conquering their opponents. My favorite team didn't qualify for the UCL tournament, making my interest slim but I'm not laying out because of the full attention I'm giving. This season is different from the rest. The fixtures are tougher and more calculative than the normal ones.
The core objectives of every club that have made it to this very phase is reaching the UCL grand finale. I've never experienced important runs from elite team until this season, it comes with whooping shockings. The UEFA Champions League is a top one and only the best team comes with outstanding results. Arsenal vs Bayern Munich in the UCL quarter finals. This is the most interesting and challenging quarter draw to predict because Gunners are in form while Bayern Munich are slightly experiencing small issues.
In fact, the same can be said for the Manchester City vs Real Madrid match. Both teams are on top of their game, both teams don't seem to have any problems and in general it's a match of the final level, but again we won't be watching it in the final. Predicting such a match is also difficult too, but by feeling Manchester City is stronger. Real almost went out last round, that's the only thing that scares me.
