Liverpool - Manchester City

“all Manchester United fans must be really happy” - Jurgen Klopp

The game between Liverpool FC and Manchester City witch take place at Anfield on 4 April will be the first meeting of the EPL clubs since 2011, when Manchester United knock out the Chelsea in the Quater-final. Today, there is a new sherif in the City and they just looks so strong so no one is about to stop them in the EPL. They have genius coach, who already know how to build a UCL wining team and they have brilliant players with probably the upcoming Golden Ball nominee Kevin De Bruyne. In my opinion, Manchester City has the biggest chances to won the UCL' crown.
On the other side, Liverpool - is the only one team in season who was success to stop the Pep-City for real. Jurgen Klopp won in five matches against Guardiola in different competitions and he knows how to beat this tiki-taka machine better then anyone. Liverpool's high pressing is seems to be the only one way to stop the MC. And, of cource, we should not forget the Mohamed Salah - first candidate to won the Golden Boot, when Harry Kane is injured and he won't came back in field soon.

In my opinion, we are about to see two beautiful games on the both stadiums with huge numbers of goals. It will be a very good game for Liverpool at Anfield witch ends with probably 2-2 or 2-1 on the screen, but MC will show their best football on Etihad Stadium and allow no chance to LFC. Manchester City to win.

Barcelona - Roma

"We knew we would have faced a top side, whoever we got" - Francesco Totti

Simple and predictable, with all my respect to the Roma. There is a to huge difference between clubs, even if gladiators will show best they can do. Barca already finish the champions race in La Liga when they won beat Atletico Madrid. First game will take place on the Camp Nou and it's probably 3-1 or 3-0 on the screen. And match on the Stadio Olimpico it's just formality. Barcelona to win.

Juventus - Real Madrid

"I hope this goes for them as well! The most determined win!" - Gianluigi Buffon

The most unpredictable meeting in this stage. Juve are ready to free some new space in the club museum for another scudetto. Napoli and Inter shows a good football and they almost made Juve's fans get worry, buy those clubs just doesn't have such brilliant footbal players and long bench. Juve didn't beat Tottenham in easy way, someone can may say that English club played better and deserve next leg. But this doesn't have to confuse you. Juve is cold-blooded and pragmatic squad. Real Madrid is better then anyone can use opponent's mistakes (especialy with Marco Asensio and Lucas Vazquez om the field) and Juventus won't give them that chance. They have a new top-level players like Bernardeschi and Matuidi. And, of course, Gianluigi Buffon is steal in good shape and only getting better with his age, like a good wine.

Real Madrid has failed this season in La Liga. Their most hateful enemy is in the one step to wear the champions crown. Those mechanisms which bring Real Madrid to the most successful year in the 21 century are doesn't working and seams like ZZ just cant handle it. But UCL is a different story. This crisys in spain squad could make them even dangerous for Juventus because this is their last chance to save season. They are highly motivated, the are in good shape, Cristiano Ronaldo scoring in almost all games and Zinedine Zidane has brilliant yong players who are ready to become a new leaders in the team (both matches against RSG is a good example for that). Even with all issues during this season, they still the squad wich have won 3 Champions League Final in 4 years.
First game will take place in Turin and it will be a very hard game to both teems. However Turin's game ends, the second meetind will be decisive. I think it won't be a very tactical confrontation and the final result will depend on team's liders: CR7, Higuain and Dibala. My opinion: Real Madrid to win with minimal advantage.

Sevilla - Bayern Munich

“It’s a difficult draw. I know Sevilla very well. They were Europa League winners three times in a row from 2014 and play a cultured, creative brand of football." - Jupp Heynckes

Not so simple to predict as you can think. Yes, Bayern Munich is a top-level team. They had issues on start of the seson, but with Jupp Heynckes returning Munich's team shows awesome football. But Sevilla is a cup's club, they will play in Copa del Rey' final and, as Heynckes sad: "They were Europa League winners three times in a row". First match will take place in Spain so Sevilla has a good chance to win at home and give a battle on Allianz Arena. It won't be a simple challenge for german team becouse Sevillia is underrated and Manchester United is already payed for this. My prediction: Bayern Munich to win.
