Him again ? Winner of five of the last ten Champions League finals, Real Madrid could win the crown again this season. In any case, this is what the Opta company thinks, according to the latest predictions from its algorithm.
For her, the Spanish club would have a 66% chance of qualifying, after their semi-final against Bayern Munich. The probability that the club of Eduardo Camavinga and Aurélien Tchouaméni would win the most prestigious European competition would even be 39%. The highest percentage of the four semi-finalists, making him the favorite. Manchester City previously occupied this position, before being eliminated by Madrid this Wednesday evening.
Behind Casa Blanca, Paris Saint-Germain would be the team with the best chance of being crowned. Opta estimates the probability that the French club will win the first Champions League in its history is 27%. The British company even gives him a 60% chance of eliminating Borussia Dortmund in the semi-final.
German clubs are not really honored by Opta. Bayern Munich would only have a 17% chance of winning the competition, and Borussia Dortmund 16%. The British predictions will be verified – or not – on Saturday June 1, after the final at Wembley.
Before that, Paris will challenge Dortmund, on May 1 in Germany, then on May 7 in France, during its semi-final. For its part, Real Madrid will travel to Munich on April 30, then host Bayern on May 8.
