We excluded Chelsea as they are not playing in the UCL this season. So far, Arne Slot is still a hot topic after being able to become the right successor to Jurgen Klopp. Kompany also put any doubters to rest by improving Bayern Munich's quality after they suffered a slump last season under Tuchel. The competition in UCL will be more competitive after several big teams returned to their best form, on the other hand, Real Madrid is experiencing problems in its defense after several key players were injured, Ancelotti must struggle hard to balance his squad in order to defend the title won last season.
Factually kompany has actually created a really different perspective for Bayern Munich after several attempts by other coaches who has been sacked because they couldn't get Bayern Munich to maintaining the records they had in the bundesliga long enough over several years. The key players in Madrid who have been injured which has been challenging to Madrid will be a challenge in the champions League fixtures but that wouldn't be enough to really get them to be able win Madrid just easily, it's going to be a really hard and tough one but on the end there will be a winner who gets the complete points.
