*odds as of October 10, 2024
Manchester City: To open a new year in Champions League play, Man City started with a draw against Inter Milan. However, they quickly followed that up with a 4-0 win over Slovan Bratislava, which puts Man City in 8th place in the standings with four points. For their third match, Man City will take on Sparta Praha, which should be an opportunity to move higher up the standings.
Real Madrid: In an effort to become repeat champions, Real Madrid has not gotten off to the best start. After winning their first match, Real Madrid dropped their second match to LOSC, which has them in 17th in the Champions League standings. There is still plenty of time for Real Madrid to get back on track, and in their third match, they will take on Dortmund, a rematch of last year's finals.
Arsenal: Fresh off a draw with Atalanta, Arsenal got into the win column for the first time with a 2-0 win over PSG. Through two games, Arsenal is in 13th in the standings, but they should be able to move up after their next match with Shakhtar Donetsk. However, after their third match, things will get tough on Arsenal, as they will play Juventus and Sporting CP in succession.
