After a thrilling campaign spanning more than 12 months, the 2019/20 Champions League has reached its quarter final stage.
This week, the competition’s last eight clubs will gather to compete in a reworked format in what promises to be an enthralling festival of knockout football in Portugal.
Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City are the current favourites to land club football’s most prestigious piece of silverware, though with strong contenders from elsewhere including Germany’s Bayern Munich, France’s PSG and Spain’s Barcelona – the tournament has a uniquely open feel to it.
