It is difficult to predict which team will win the UCL trophy this time because the remaining 4 teams have almost balanced squads. Arsenal and PSG are trying to win their first UCL trophy, while Barcelona and Inter still have to focus on the domestic league because the competition is still very tight. Hansi Flick is trying to carve out a new history for himself and Barcelona, Flick wants to end Barcelona title drought in European competition while trying to win a third Treble for Barcelona.
Honestly I would prefer Arsenal or PSG to win this trophy because they have been waiting for it for so long.
Arsenal or PSG will meet in the semifinals and one of them will advance to the final and there is a possibility that there will be a new champion this season if it is obtained by Arsenal or PSG, I also hope so.
However, what must be realized is that the competition in the Champion League competition is very fierce and quite difficult to predict, especially since each team has great ambitions to win the Champion League title.
Although I hope there will be a new champion, it cannot be denied that Barcelona's strength is slightly better than the other three teams.
All the teams that have managed to come this far did so by merit, any of them that succeds in advancing past this stage deserves it and did so through merit. After arsenal has succeeded in taking out the defending champions out of the tournament, it will be worth it to see them eventually getting to the finals and eventually winning the champions league after a long while. Same way we allowed emotional affect us to thinking that Madrid will eventually go really far can also play out with Barca that they might not eventually do too well as most of us think of them. It's even easier for arsenal to win the champions league based on mentality than it will be for other teams that have other leagues in view and have won a major league not quite long ago. If arsenal can't win the league this season, it will be very deficult for them to come this close to the champions league. This is part of the reason why I'm very positive that they have the higher chance of winning the league compared to any top contenders.
