#3 Liverpool
Liverpool are one of the most exciting and entertaining sides in all of Europe. The Merseysiders can be ruthless in attack with the likes of Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane, Diogo Jota, Roberto Firmino and Luis Diaz on their payroll.
Trending
Jurgen Klopp's gegenpressing system has been executed to perfection by this Liverpool side and they play an attacking style of football with great elan. They have been quite consistent this season and are yet to lose a game at home across the Premier League and the Champions League this season.
Liverpool have clawed back into the Premier League title race after registering five successive wins in their last five outings. They are ready to give Manchester City a run for their money. That is an achievement in itself given how incredible Pep Guardiola's men have been this season.
#2 Bayern Munich
Bayern Munich have been utterly dominant in the Bundesliga in the recent past. They have won the league nine times on-the-trot since the 2012-13 season and are well on their way to securing a 10th successive league title this term.
The Bavarians have a six-point lead at the top of the table. They have arguably the best striker in all of Europe in Robert Lewandowski. Thomas Muller is the finest support striker in Europe as well. In fact, their starting XI has far too many talented players.
Leroy Sane, Serge Gnabry, Joshua Kimmich, Leon Goretzka and Alphonso Davies are all players who can win matches on their own. Bayern Munich have been dominant in the Champions League as well and will be looking to have a deep run in Europe's elite competition this season.
#1 Manchester City
When Manchester City are playing, they are producing wave after wave of attacks. It doesn't matter who the opposition is, Pep Guardiola's men will make them play their game. City have one of the most expensive squads in the world and they have top quality players in each and every position.
They are at the top of the Premier League table right now. City have also made the extraordinary look easy. Last week, they visited Sporting Lisbon in the first leg of their Champions League Round of 16 tie and absolutely dismantled them. Manchester City won the game 5-0.
They are unstoppable on their day and will be desperate to win that ever elusive Champions League title this term after losing the final of the 2020-21 edition to Chelsea.
