Now that we are a few games into yet another exciting Champions League tournament (half way through the group stages actually!), we figured it’s about time to look at teams are outside favourites for the title- specifically looking at teams who have impressed so far and could cause a few surprises in this year’s event. After all, talking about the favorites is never as exciting as talking about the dark horses.
It’s been an odd tournament so far- Barcelona have been particularly shocking, losing to both Bayern and Benfica and edging Dynamo Kyiv 1-0. AC Milan have failed to secure a point in this year’s competition, while Sheriff Tiraspol are on top of a group that has both Real Madrid and Inter Milan!
