Group B: Tottenham and Barcelona
On paper, Group B is expected to be one of the most competitive. Barcelona, who are in the habit of topping their Champions League group, are seen as the favorites to do so again ahead of Spurs, Inter Milan and Dutch champions PSV. Despite losing Andres Iniesta in the summer, they continue to boast one of the greatest players of all time, Lionel Messi. Having strengthened their depth in the transfer window, Barca are well-equipped to battle on every front this season.
Tottenham will likely push Barcelona all the way and might even top the group. On their day, Spurs are a nightmare opponent for anyone and their improved consistency recently means they will be a massive threat this season.
PSV will come into the group with the potential to cause an upset against their much-fancied opponents but their lack of experience means it is unlikely they will make it through. Italian giants Inter, on the other hand, are dangerous but also very inconsistent.
Group C: PSG and Liverpool
UCL favorites Paris Saint-Germain have spent an incredible amount of money in an attempt to win the Champions League having established their dominance in Ligue 1. A front three of Cavani, Neymar and Mbappe should be enough firepower to see PSG through the group. To do so they will have to overcome last season's Champions League finalists Liverpool, Italian powerhouse Napoli and Crvena Zvezda (or Red Star Belgrade).
The qualifying teams from the group are likely to be two of PSG, Napoli and Liverpool. Based on their experience of last season, and the improvement Liverpool have made under the guidance of Jurgen Klopp, Liverpool will most likely qualify along with the French giants. Expect Napoli to have something to say about this though. For Red Star, anything other than a bottom-place finish will be a bonus.
