3 Reasons why PSG might actually win the Champions League this season

3. Poor form of the big clubs

The 3 biggest European clubs of recent times, Real Madrid, Barcelona and Bayern Munich, are all going through a rough patch this season. Real and Bayern are struggling domestically, as both of them are outside the top 4 in the league table at the moment. Both of them have qualified for the next round in the Champions League, but might not advance to the latter stages of the tournament.

Barcelona are in a better position as they have comfortably won their group, but they also have their share of injury problems as both Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez have missed some matches this season. If last year’s finalists Liverpool also fail to qualify from their group, it would mean that yet another obstacle has been removed from PSG’s path to glory.

This would definitely bolster PSG’s chances of winning the ultimate prize in club football. There are strong sides like Juventus and Manchester City in the fray, but they are not unbeatable and Tuchel would also take heart from the fact that City have never won a Champions League.
