FINALLY.
It’s back.
Europe’s premier football competition is back.
After such a lengthy break from UEFA Champions League football, in order re-jig all our memories about who’s even in the competition at this point, we at 90min have decided to rank the teams in the round of 16.
Watch 90min’s Gas Tank as Harry Symeou, Scott Saunders, Grizz Khan & Hunter Godson digest Manchester City closing the gap on Arsenal & a weekend of shocking decisions from VAR.

Their manager is quite literally Scott Parker.
Never ever trust a manger in a gilet.
The Europa League holders still look like a Europa League level football team.
There’s a very easy way to exemplified just how deep in the pits AC Milan are right now: Divock Origi started the most recent Milan derby – which they lost…obviously.
I Rossoneri are in woeful form right now and should be considered massive underdogs for their clash with Tottenham.
The team Milan are set to face off against are favourites for their round of 16 clash, but that’s not to say Tottenham have been particularly good recently.
They lost 4-1 at the weekend and also lost their best midfielder – Rodrigo Bentancur – to a season-ending injury too.
Things have taken a turn for the worse.
It’s been a rather topsy-turvy season for RB Leipzig thus far. One week they’ll be beating Real Madrid 3-2, and the next they’ll be losing 2-0 to Wolfsburg.
You never really know what you’re going to get with them, so it’ll be interesting to see which Leipzig shows up in the round of 16.
The Portuguese giants lost their first two UEFA Champions League group stage games before stringing together four wins on the bounce to squeeze into the round of 16. That’s impressive.
The fact they’re unbeaten since mid-October is also impressive.
One win in 2023.
Seven defeats in the Premier League.
Out of every other cup competition.
They’re just quite bad, aren’t they?
BVB have Jude Bellingham.
I don’t think we need to justify their placing in this list with anything more than that….
