“Good things come to those who wait”, they say in English. That certainly applies to the Champions League. After two months of waiting, next week starts what really matters: the knockout phase. With an immediate top poster in Paris, Milan and Salzburg.
Why listen?
- Peter Vandenbempt brings out his famous crystal ball again and predicts 20 goals in the “abacus matches” in the knockout phase.
- Aster Nzeyimana and Peter Vandenbempt disagree on who will push through after the “big reunion” between PSG and Real Madrid.
- By the way, did you know that it has been 10 years since Inter reached the 1/8th finals of the Champions League?
- “What was once a wall is now a sieve” versus a “club where the moth is in the squad and the whole club.” That promises for Atletico Madrid against Manchester United.
- Peter Vandenbempt puts a curse on Benfica because of dissatisfaction with the coach change.
- Chelsea push through according to our analysts, but will Romelu Lukaku finally be more than “the scarecrow” again?
- Pep Guardiola is not going to do strange things in the Champions League yet. It’s too early for that, our analysts conclude.
- Finally, Peter Vandenbempt hopes to stay awake in the “snoring contest” for which he travels to Turin.
