The draw is upon us and we are set for some blockbuster matches. I will be making my predictions too but that doesn't mean it is a direct attack on any team, it is simply my personal view and preference. It would be just for this draw and nothing about the semi-finals or finals.

Manchester City would begin their first leg playing at home to Borussia Dortmund. This is a tricky one because both teams are strong but with the form that Manchester City are currently on, I am tipping them to go through over the two legs and proceed to the Semi-Finals.

Porto will first play host to Chelsea for the first leg and even though most people saw this as an easy draw for Chelsea but I beg to differ. I believe Chelsea will go through, no doubt but it won't be as easy as many people think. Porto is stronger at home and if Chelsea can get a result at their home, then Chelsea will go through.

Bayern Munich will host PSG for the first leg of this Quarter-Finals tie. Even though Paris showed serious strength against Barcelona, I still believe Bayern Munich will go through due to their wealth of experience and how clinical they are on goal.

The last draw for this round is Real Madrid and Liverpool. This is tough for me to pick because I don't see both teams as being too convincing with their gameplay and form but I think after hard work and effort, Real Madrid will edge it with a tiny margin.

Granada will host Manchester United in the first leg of their Europa League Quarter Finals. United have been good on the road and they always grind out the results away from home. If they can score 2 goals away from home, I think they will go through.

Arsenal would be hosting Slavia Praha first. If Arsenal played anyway as they did against Olympiacos for the second leg with the wasteful Aubamayang, then they would struggle against Slavia but I still believe Arsenal would go through.

Ajax and Roma is a tough one and it is hard to predict. I feel Ajax is exciting and their exploit of how they played the Final against United a few years ago would make me tip them ahead of Roma.

Dinamo Zagreb that knocked out Tottenham would play host to Villarreal. I feel the submarine boys will avoid the upset Tottenham faced and get through this tie. It is a tricky one as usual but Villareal will go through.

What are your predictions for these games? Let me know in the comment below.


Thank you for your time.
