Only the eight best teams remain, including last year's winners of the European Champion Clubs' Cup. Manchester City is off to a hot start again, as they are 6-0 in the Champions League. In the quarterfinals, they will be taking on Real Madrid, the only other 6-0 team. The two teams are meeting a round earlier than they have in the two previous years of the Champions League. While Manchester City advanced past Real Madrid last year before going on to win it all, the roles were reversed two seasons ago. The 2024 Champions Cup quarterfinal offers a rubber match of sorts.

There are tons of big names left in the tournament, most notably, Kylian Mbappe and his Paris Saint-Germain team are still kicking and are set to face Barcelona. Mbappe's departure from Paris Saint-Germain is impending, so fans will want to see him on his squad before he leaves.

Arsenal will have the tough assignment of stopping Harry Kane. The Bayern Munich star has scored 36 goals in 34 matches for his new team. Arsenal does have enough scoring to keep up with Kane, though. Their 16 Champions League goals are the third most in the tournament.

Atletico Madrid vs. Borussia Dortmund is the other matchup in the quarterfinals. The two have never met in the knockout rounds before, and they will with super high stakes.

There is no question that the eight best teams are left in the Champions League. So, who do you think will walk away with the European Champion Clubs' Cup?
