Bayern are the favorites from what we saw before WC.
Long way to go and a lot of things can change of course.

Not having a striker worked great for them, their attack is fluid and multi-faceted
In general Nagelsman optimized many things since last season, and using Villareal as some proof is a bad argument

We'll surprise everyone and win it this season. Have a weird feeling about this.

I don't know where this notion surfaced that we're bottlers. Aside from those two EV specials, I can't think of other instances (even Carlo's Milan had Deportivo and Pool). We're either staggeringly great or completely shit. Not much in between.

We have lost against inferior side against Chelsea in 2012, against Atletico in 2014, against Atletico again in 2016. All aforementioned teams were far inferior than us. In addition to Benfica and Inter losses in group stage in past 2 years that lead to us being knocked out of group stage, loss 0-3 at home to Juve that lead us to play PSG in round of 16.


OTOH, Barca has never really beat a team that was superior to them, in fact we get humiliations in such case.
We have abysmal record in past decade and half outside home.
Call it bottler, call it sof, call it what you want. But it isn't just 2 incidents

2nd fav is City, then the rest

Surprises can happen. Benfica is solid as was said.
Wouldn't be surprised if Chelsea under Potter pulls a shocking run towards another final or trophy

City, Madrid, Bayern, Liverpool, PSG, Benfica.

PSG could be higher. But I think neither team is much ahead.
