*odds as of November 1, 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 and a 5-0 win over Sparta Praha, which puts Man City in 3rd place in the standings with seven points. For their fourth match, Man City will take on Sporting Lisbon, which should be a more competitive opponent than their last two.
Real Madrid: In an effort to become repeat champions, Real Madrid won their first match, lost their second match, and won 5-2 over Dortmund in their third. This puts them in 12th place in the Champions League standings. There is still plenty of time for Real Madrid to move up the standings, and in their fourth match, they will take on AC Milan.
FC Barcelona: Through three Champions League matches, FC Barcelona is tied for the second most goals in the league with ten. After dropping their first Champions League game to Monaco, FC Barcelona has picked up a 5-0 win over Young Boys and a 4-1 win over Bayern Munich. Looking to continue their impressive scoring pace, Barcelona will take on Crvena Zvezda on November 6th.
