With the start of the Champions League, expectations are high every season. In a new format with no fewer than 36 clubs spread across Europe, the battle for the coveted trophy is more intense than ever. In this Champions League power ranking we look at all 36 participating teams, their strength, recent performances and potential for the current season.
Traditionally, this list is headed by the superpowers of European club football, with clubs such as Real Madrid, Manchester City and Bayern Munich that can once again be counted among the big favorites. These teams have an in-depth selection, international experience and players who can make a difference individually, such as Jude Bellingham (Real Madrid), Kevin De Bruyne (Manchester City) and Harry Kane (Bayern Munich).
Immediately behind are the challengers from England and Italy, such as Arsenal, Internazionale and Paris Saint-Germain. These teams have reinvented themselves in recent years and have tactical flexibility and a strong core. With the new format, every loss of points is extra expensive: every match counts, so surprises are always lurking.
In the sub-top we find clubs such as Atlético Madrid, Borussia Dortmund and Barcelona, which although not clear favorites for the final victory, can beat anyone on a good day. For the Dutch contribution, it is mainly Feyenoord that keeps the flag high. The Rotterdam team showed with their European campaign last season that they should not be underestimated and are trying to surprise again against the European elite.
Mid-ranked teams such as Benfica, AC Milan and FC Porto may be able to perform, depending on the form of their top players and the draw in the next rounds. At the very bottom we find the debutants and clubswho owe their place mainly to national successes. Teams like Union Berlin and Royal Antwerp will mainly gain experience, although they hope for a stunt.
The new Champions League format makes the group stage more challenging, with one big ranking instead of classic groups. Places for the knockout phase are scarce, making every match under high pressure. Both favorites and underdogs must be sharp immediately so as not to lose unnecessary points. Dutch fans will not only be curious about the role of Feyenoord, but also about the performances of Dutch internationals at top clubs abroad.
This power ranking is a snapshot in a season where anything can happen. Risers, fallers and unexpected performances: it promises to be an exciting Champions League year, in which the cards are reshuffled after every round.
What's happening now
Now that the Champions League has started, all teams will have to coordinate their strategies to stay ahead of the competition. Clubs such as Feyenoord will have to repeat their strong performances from last season to prove themselves as serious challengers. The upcoming matches will not only impact the power rankings, but also these teams' chances of winning the coveted trophy.
