A Supercomputer at Opta has revealed its latest predictions for this season’s UEFA Champions League, and Barcelona fans have every reason to be optimistic.
The algorithm places Barcelona as strong contenders for the prestigious title, giving them a 15.4% chance of lifting their first Champions League trophy since 2015. Only Premier League leaders Liverpool rank higher, with a 17.2% probability of securing the crown.
Arsenal, another in-form side, follow closely behind with a 13.6% chance of winning their first-ever Champions League trophy. Meanwhile, Inter Milan and Real Madrid round out the top five favorites in the supercomputer’s projections.

With Barcelona currently leading La Liga, fans will be hopeful that Hansi Flick’s men can defy the odds and bring European glory back to the Camp Nou.
