*Odds as of April 15, 2025
FC Barcelona: With a 6-1-1 record and a (+15) goal differential during match play, Barcelona finished second in the standings with 19 points. By being so successful, Barcelona drew a bye during the knockout stage. With action resuming for them in the Round of 16, they picked up a 4-1 aggregate win over Benfica. They would then pick up a 4-0 win over Dortmund in the quarter-finals, setting them up nicely to advance to the next round.
Paris St. Germain: Despite getting the tough draw of Liverpool in the Round of 16 and losing the first match 1-0, PSG was able to sneak by them on penalty kicks after a 1-0 win in the second match. By eliminating one of the favorites for the event, PSG has shot up the odds board and set themselves up with a quarter-final showdown with Aston Villa, in which they won the first game 3-1.
Arsenal: In eight Champions League matches, Arsenal has only lost one game, and to start the quarter-finals, they secured a 3-0 win over defending champion Real Madrid. By winning by that margin, Arsenal is in an excellent spot to eliminate Real Madrid and move closer to their first-ever Champions League title.
